Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. Looks a great project, you thinking of going to the shows? 🙂

The only place that might have them is Audi heritage. However I'm not too sure on there ability to post to the UK.

You've done a fantastic amount of diagnostic work. Is it all switches on each individual door or just on the drivers door master switch. Have you done a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up?

The lead times are a joke. If you use the search function you'll find other threads on this. Even when your car does arrive you might find it won't have features you initially thought it would. For example q7 owners are taking deliveries that haven't got the correct headlights that it should have done. This is without Audi informing customers. I'd recommend you speak to the lease company.

It definitely would be cheaper to find one with it. Autologics or Audi retrofits would give you a quote on retrofitting costs. Which one to choose will be down to your budget. For example you'll get a higher spec q3 due to the fact it's smaller than the Q5 if you see what I mean.

Very nice! That's a great colour 😊

Just checked, it was hybrid: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/mercedes-owner-horrified-new-battery-6545540.amp

That's the one, could have sworn it was hybrid as it was the old generation e class. Either way it is a huge worry. Are you buying new or would you consider used?

You're right to be worried. Someone local to me was in the paper last year when his mild hybrid mercedes e class battery went wrong and the bill.was more than the car was worth. Needless to say I won't be touching any of this electric nonsense in any form untill there is no other choice.

Very true, I think it is. The exception might also be e tron models (hybrid ones)

Glad you got to the bottom of it 🙂

Hey Gareth, I think the one I had was for A1?

Just found this one for 2017 cars. It's for USA though. But looking at mileage its not different.

Here's some: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165318711479?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=cgqf5nh4qee&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255929012911?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=qR1-FhSmSi-&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285183616066?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=bA7CUbmDT8W&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I don't think the wiring would be there. Plus you'd need them coding to the car. Here's the foglight switch you need: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204178557272?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=PhY8R8YBRO6&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Here's a link to the whole kit: https://www.hazzydayz.com/a1-8x-fog-lights-supply--fit---s-line-front-bumper-653-p.asp

Found some on eBay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115610023995?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=b2XMnWdRR_q&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204031391771?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=YOSZiiBLRMK&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203839853362?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=YOSZiiBLRMK&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

This shows the difference between the two. Pic 1 c6 Pic 2 c7

I had something similar on my much older A6. Seems to be common problem on Audi's.

How odd. They can be retrofitted, I'd recommend you speak to autologics or Audi retrofits as members have used them and had good experiences

Looks a lovely car. I'm surprised it hasn't got front fogs being such high spec. Are you sure they're not built into the headlight? Yep updated SD cards can be bought. Check eBay first.

I'd hazard a guess the suspension and tyres are connected. I'd suspect worn suspension arms/bushes. So get these checked and tracking checked. I'd recommend getting an auto electrican to check the wiring to the window and blind.

Hello all, Here's a link to the service schedule which shows it in kilometres. It does depend what service schedule the car is on from new. https://www.audiwestottawa.ca/maintenance-intervals.htm#:~:text=First at 15%2C000 km or,two years%2C whichever occurs first.
