I guess the Arteon is approximately 3% more Audi. 😂

Not everything from AliExpress is junk. A lot of these little trim pieces and accessories are made in China anyway, whether they end up being sold on AliExpress, Amazon, eBay, or somewhere else.

That obviously doesn’t mean everything on AliExpress is good. You still have to look at reviews, seller history, photos, fitment, and use some common sense.

For these seat control trim pieces, I used a plastic trim tool to remove the originals. They came out pretty easily, nothing broke, and the replacements went in without any drama.

They’re inexpensive, fit well, and add a little contrast to an otherwise all black panel.

And now I guess the Arteon is approximately 3% more Audi. 😂

For a small cosmetic mod like this, I’m pretty happy with it. Cheap doesn’t automatically mean poorly made. 8.65 shipped.

Exhaust Options?

Took some time out of my weekend to install a new carbon diffuser i got from Karbel Carbon. Can now be fitted with real exhaust tips, debating on what would be the best for the exhaust?

Advice on buying choices between an R-Line and Stinger gt2

Hey, looking for a family car that is big enough for trips with my family. I currently drive a Fiesta ST and love that thing, but I am wondering whether an Arteon or a Stinger is the next step toward something more family-friendly. I grew up with a manual b5 Passat that my dad drove around and eventually gave to me. I know that compared to a Stinger GT2, the Arteon is a bit less sporty, but if anyone here has any experience with tuning their Arteon and adding something like a rear sway bar, that would be appreciated.

Moonstone Grey doing what it does best. Clean lines, subtle details, and that Arteon profile never gets old. 🩶

Travel Assist Not Available OBDeleven Fix

Hi

I have a 2021 Arteon and have had the pleasure of dealing with the occasional "Travel Assist Not Available" chime multiple times a day when driving around.

Found this fix from the OBDeleven forums and can confirm it works with the Arteon, the user there had a Skoda Octavia IV

https://forum.obdeleven.com/thread/44581/workaround-travel-emergency-assist-unavailable

I'll just copy from him

What I changed (OBDeleven)
- Control unit: A5 – Driver Assistance
- Long coding:
- Emergency_Assist = Not_coded
- Klr = Not_coded
- Then:
- Clear DTCs in A5 (and 19 – Gateway if any propagate)
- Cycle ignition: OFF, lock the car for ~1–2 minutes, then ON

Have hood open to perform long coding.

I always saw the fix of using the aliexpress module but for anyone who doesn't want to go through that an OBDeleven is around the same price and can do a lot more then this.

I can also confirm all assist systems still work. The only difference is that when using ACC the car is going to look for actual physical input on the wheel instead of just sensing your hand.

Off to the car hospital!

My lil Felix won’t start! Although it sucked watching my car being towed out my driveway, it was neat to see them put the dolly wheels on.
Fingers crossed for a speedy/wallet-friendly fix 😅

Test drive

Today I test drove a VW Arteon Shooting Brake (or whatever it's called). Honestly, it really wasn't great. The car has 80k km on the clock and a 2.0 TSI 140kW engine. Why does the center console creak? The car is supposed to be premium quality. The speakers are creaking/rattling too 🙈🙈

Buying Arteon Shooting Brake R-line - what are some options you suggest

I am very close tu buying a shooting brake, but i still want some feedbacks.

  1. What are the options you can't leave without in your Arteon, and what are just gimmicks for you?

  2. Give me as many flaws the car has (squeeky plastics etc.) I want to get my expectations straight.

  3. Are there any small mods to make QOL better? I heard a lot of people go for an aftermarket wireless charger etc.

I don't want to tune it or do crazy sporty look, I want it tasteful, elegant with QOL mods.

Thank you in advance for any contributions. I hope I can help future buyers as well.
