    Pre facelift rear led tail light retro fit

    Apologies. Been too busy to update. Yes got this working. Likely with the same loom and seller on eBay. Very simple plug and play on the lights. Coding was a little problematic. After purchasing the seller gives you coding instructions. These may work on some modules but didn't on mine. I shall...

    Pre facelift rear led tail light retro fit

    I've seen a few threads out there (unfortunately without pictures now as they're so old) and I'm about to attempt this Got the lights 8x0945093b 8x0945094b I've checked, and my original halogen units have 6 pins and the LEDs use 6 pins in an 8 pin plug. Albeit a different shaped plug. I...

    Audi A1 coilovers fitting

    Need some advice people. Just fitted coilovers. Done plenty in the past but trying to torque up this lower bolt for the rear and although it's only 25nm the washer seems to want to bow inwards an awful lot before my wrench clicks. Is this normal? Keep tightening and go with it? Or have I fitted...

    Uneven suspension after new components

    Can't get my head round the fact the part numbers on them are correct. Not only that they are the same part number as the ones that came off. I might sell them and go for coilovers Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Uneven suspension after new components

    Actually forgot to mention that in my post. The springs that are supplied with the cup kit carry the same part number as the -35 mm springs I already had. Ive even had the mechanic swap out all 4 new springs and try the older ones and it's still exactly the same. If there is an issue with a...

    Uneven suspension after new components

    Someone help I'm thinking going insane To start. Car was sat on standard shocks with -35mm h&r springs. Two dead shocks later pushed me into buying an upgrade. So I bought the h&r cup kit+ new top mounts, bearings and drop links direct from Audi. Had a garage for it all. Noticed the...

    Lowering springs & shocks

    Hi all Have a 2013 2.0 TDI. Lowered it with -35mm h&r springs a few years ago now. Been fine until recently. Unfortunately the standard shocks have given up. Was inevitable really. Im in the market to upgrade again. I'm happy with the drop from the h&r's so assuming the springs are in good...

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Yea. Few options. I did it all from the top. Very awkward but managed in the end. £42 is a good find. Does it work now then? Sent from my motorola one using Tapatalk

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Don't need to remove the bumper. The headlight moves out of the way enough to get your hand in and around the back to locate and plug it in. Fiddly but once you've worked it out it saves you having to take the bumper off. Sent from my motorola one using Tapatalk

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Hi mate. Searched high and low but cannot find the invoice. It's jogged my memory though. I had it diagnosed at a garage. Half hour labour. Bought the part myself as I've got a trade account with TPS and changed it myself. Sorry. I've had another kid since then and my brain is mush. Mine was...

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Had to put it into the garage and they diagnosed the led module itself. That's not the control module but the part that actually emits the light. Unfortunately iirc it's the most expensive part. I'll dig the receipt out tomorrow afternoon for you and double check Sent from my motorola one...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Been a few months with these on the car now. They seem to be working fine after a few teething issues. One other problem has appeared. I did my first night drive last week and the levels for the lights are all over the place. I've tried connecting with vcds to '55 headlight range' but these no...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Seems I spoke too soon. Drove to work this morning and the dash lit up. DRL/tail & brake light errors. DRLs and brake lights worked but the tails didn't. So I guess my initial test was correct. Basically back where I started now. I can get everything working just not together. I'd rather not...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Been out and had another go. Not sure if I missed something but I now have everything working. Yet to test drive but a quick walkround and everything seems in working order. So the two options pictured will allow DRLs from mmi and the headlight switch. The xenons power up and the indicators...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Should also mention that if you turn the DRLs on via the mmi and they come on, then turn the headlight switch to sidelights the DRLs go out. If you turn the headlights on the DRLs flicker. I'm happy everything is working just something wrong with the coding? Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    A little progress. Got the headlights fitted this weekend. Was surprised that they came out without having to remove the bumper which was nice. I'm having issues with the coding tho. Byte 14 bit 3 checked Byte 17 bit 2 checked The problem I now have is in the light setup. Obviously I only...
