part numbers

[harvz]

hi i was going to buy a wiper stalk to control the trip computer as my car does not have one yet.

My car is pre facelift (2004-2008) 2008 8pa a3 1.9tdie. I spoke to audi they said the part number is 8P0953519E. However this is for 2008+ models post facelift?

I found the part number for 2007 to 2008 models is 8P0953519A. I asked audi if it will fit my car and they go its the same but different software?? Im sure 100% wiperstalks dont have software in them only hardware.

Was wondering if an expert here could let me know if i install the 8P0953519A on my car will it be ok? as its the only part i can get hold of.

I have also bought a cruise control module from an 2005 model here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261191988813?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648

Don't know what you're trying to do but the part you have bought is not the cruise control module !

That is the CC stalk but you need the correct steering control module for it to work. The firmware is in the steering module.

It is not possible to say if it will work without knowing what your steering module is. You need to get the car scanned with VCDS to check steering module version.

If your car is not fitted with trip computer then you will need a new cluster as well.
