When I fitted mine, the installers fitted the wrong antenna adaptor. It absolutely needs to be a twin fakra or the signal reception is rubbish. Check and makes sure that you are using this one 'Connects2 CT27AA87 - Universal Twin Fakra to DIN Antenna Adaptor' or the latest equivalent. If you...

I swapped over my dead battery at the weekend and went with the recommended choice of the Varta E44 096, ordered from Tanya. This battery is not overly cheap these days but, if it lasts as long as the OEM Audi one (8 years old) then it's money well spent! I just wanted to confirm that it fits...

Can you explain a little further. Which head unit do you have and how are you trying to access the music files on the usb?

I had exactly the same issue. You can't switch audio pilot off sadly and the gala settings just make it get louder he faster you drive. Gala at 0 = audio pilot on. Hope the new mic helps.

Update: I thought i'd just give a bit of an update on how this has been a week or so in. The bluetooth phone setup works well if you don't want to use Carplay (Carplay disconnects bluetooth, as obviously your phone is connected via a lightning cable so doesn't need it). The advantage of...

Hi Leshkin, not entirely sure but, it fits relatively flush. It certainly isn't the adjustable one though.

The unit is around £350, but you need a few cables that are custom made. These will set you back around £160 plus fitting. A fitter will charge roughly £50 an hour and It would take around 2-3 hours to fit. The cables make it relatively plug and play but, if you have a Bose system you need to...

After a bit of an installation saga, finally my new Pioneer SPH-DA120 is in place and working. Well sort off. I thought I'd share the experience just in case anyone else is thinking about fitting one of these mech-less Head Units in an A3/S3 8P. First off, the sound quality is a vast...

This has been really good reading and has prompted me to get one of these HU's fitted to my 2010 S3. I've always hated the Concert Stereo with my Bose set up. I thought briefly about retro fitting the RNS-e but, what's the point other than wanting an OEM look and feel. This Pioneer unit...

No but, I did finally work out that the two struts needed to fit the half moon dog guard were missing which meant I couldn't fit it. Eventually I got a guard off eBay that had the right parts but, not before I'd bought another dog guard off a member here. Oh well, at least I'm sorted now.

I've got the same set up in my S3 and I am also disappointed with the sound quality from the Bose system. I've also got the audi iPod interface connected. What I have noticed is that depending on the quality of the mp3 files (Kbps), the higher it is the better the system performs. However, a...

Thanks, I'll send him a PM.

Not unexpected i guess. The worst part is it took them a week to answer me! Great cars but, Audi customer service sucks.

Thanks Vorney, I'll give it another go. I finally got a response from Audi directly and their advice was...... "Buy another dog guard from us at £209 to get the fitting instructions". Great help/advice Audi, thanks!

You're right, had I bought a Trav All dog guard, I would have looked at their web site. However, I bought a Genuine Audi dog guard as mentioned in the post above and have already tried contacting Audi to get a set of the instructions, all to no avail. Thanks though, as if I cant get this one...

Yep, that's the one. The chrome mirrors had been stolen, ripped off and replaced with colour coded ones. All done by audi at close to £900! Given that Chrome wing mirrors still seem to be a collectors item, and I also have to park on a road overnight, It wasn't a problem for me. The less...

You can get a 5 year warranty if you buy it up front. Thankfully it can be transferred to the next owner for an admin fee of £17.50.

The 4 year old s3 I bought a few weeks ago was certainly nowhere near pristine. However, it seems to be more from laziness than outright neglect. Some fairly significant stone chips, broken parcel shelf, green mould on the window rubbers etc... Thankfully still under the 5 year Audi warranty so...

Hi, has anyone got a copy of the fitting instructions for the Genuine Audi Dog Guard for the Sportback that you could scan/photo/post to me please? I've asked Audi directly, but not getting very far and I can't seem to fit the b****y thing. Many thanks in advance.
