  1. Not had the same issues, sounds like it needs them to run updates / reinstall !
  2. I know you are in Scotland, but here is a link to non audi dealer, but audi specialist: https://www.audi-specialists.co.uk/service-menu/ Shows us all the silly mark up the 'STEALERS' are taking us for !
  3. Hi, The second row is perm live, the bottom row is switched live / accessory. Not sure if yours has parking mode, so you may only need one positive connection but depends what your Garmin model is / says in the manual If you are using piggy back connections then the 2nd fuse covers the amperage for your device.
  4. I paid Halfords to do mine then had to rewire it myself as they got it wrong by connecting the switched live and constant live wires both to constant live. This meant the parking mode did not kick in as the unit did not sense power off. Be aware when testing for switched live these circuits do not power down straight away. I used the fuse box in the footwell near side not the higher panel, this picture should sort for you.
  5. If it helps anyone this is all the Extra work needed according to the myAudi app with my car registered to it, note they could not explain why this says 40k for the gearbox oil change versus the Stealers 38k though….
  6. 7 speed I think, on a 2.0 diesel Quattro
  7. Thanks I have a service plan but this particular gearbox oil change is not included. Turns out that a non dealership specialist was slightly more expensive but they included flushing. Had it done at Audi for convenience of being done at the same time.
  8. Does we buy any car or similar help you value wise?
  9. Indeed, I have the App also and noticed this, asked Audi why they were chasing me for a 38k change when it says 40k in their very own app that my car is linked to..... and they said its definitely 38k - hmmm wonder what would happen if it was not charged and failed at 39k for instance Suppose we cannot expect to pay all this premium money and expect something as basic as this to be correct eh....
  10. Hi Gareth, Well no, for some reason when it was set up it picked up part of my email address; it's Yan. So I checked local Audi dealers all the same price or more, but same Audi group, they used to do price matching against local garages but now don't - so guess thats called go old price fixing... I've called a specialist and they also queried the miles saying would expect to be twice that; so guess these gearbox's are flakey and thus an early oil change; waiting for them to come back with a price and what work that is; if it's just drain and replace oil thats crazy given car would be in for a main service and thus already being worked on at the same time. Also in the Audi price they want £9.99 to dispose of the oil, which I've queried as was going in for the standard service at the same time > they can put it in a container and I'll take FOC to the local Council Recycling centre for that ! On similar marques do you happen to know the frequency of change? Cheers
  11. Anyone know of an Independent specialist in the Northwest please? Looking too not get taken the pi** out of for my 38k Auto gearbox oil service
  12. Hi - anyone had this completed recently, a few questions please: 1. How much did you pay? 2. Where was is it done? 3. What exactly did it entail (just oil or other items like filter, seal, drain plug etc, etc? 4. Anyone any information on non Audi garages that comply with the spec? In a nutshell I know Audi is not cheap, but Jardine Motors Group Audi won't budge on £277.85 and have removed any price match offers; to be frank seems to be overly priced. Viewpoints also welcomed either way please?
  13. Oh I see, I don't get this on mine either - can only think it's an option buried away in one of the car settings menus. I'll have a look next time I'm in mine.
