Installed a Wireless Apple CarPlay kit into my older Audi recently and honestly it makes the car feel 10 years newer 😭
Still keeps:
• OEM look
• factory controls
• steering wheel buttons
• original MMI system
No ugly tablet screens or cheap stick-on displays.
Probably one of the best mods I’ve done to the interior so far.
Hi Audi people, I don't have access to Tech manual for this engine. What is the unit circled in blue? My Avant got a socked in the nose by a trailer hitch and so I'm replacing the radiators condenser, support structure. The cooling fans were not injured so those are being reused. Just not sure what this unit is.
Thanks!
A4 3.0tdi 6mt quattro. Apparently round airbag steering wheel really is just plug and play on b8 generation.
Ich bin derzeit auf der Suche nach einem A4 B8 Avant.
Mein Preisbudget bei so einem Wagen liegt zwischen 10.000-12.000€. ich hatte bisher nur die 1.6 Motoren einmal in meinem alten B5 und meinen alten B7. Ich würde diesmal gerne auf den 2.0 Diesel gehen was sind so typische Dinge auf die ich achten muss vor und nach Kauf?
It came with this aftermarket screen that enables car play amongst other things. However when I put it in reverse the screen goes black and I cannot see the backup camera. Is this normal for the after market screens? If not, how would you recommend correcting it?
Thanks in advance 🙂
Ps. The screen is slightly crooked and lower on one side. Doesn’t affect performance but drives me crazy to look at. recommendations?
Picked it up for $6k, only had two owners and most major service items have been changed such as timing chain, water pump and coils. It is a 2.0 TFSI Flexifuel quatro. 220000km Did I pay a fair price, bought in Sweden.
I was experiencing a very heavy steering wheel with my 2011 Audi a4. It would sometimes be light and normal then other times heavy (worse at low speeds). I took it in and my local euro shop told me it was the intermediate steering shaft. The part they quoted me for as a replacement was OEM and $450. Online I have seen that $450 is on the cheap side for OEM. However I noticed there are aftermarket option that range from $150-$200 ish.
My question is are the aftermarket steering shafts okay to use? Or is it a component that really should be replaced with an OEM/OE part? Thank you!
What do you think about the look of the rims on my B8.5?
