I can't speak for the c6, but I know for the c5 you need a different wing mirror switch, the correct wiring harness and relay. I suspect the c6 will be similar to be honest

I suspect it's out only just so should be fine but I definitely wouldn't push it. If something goes seriously wrong then it'll go into limp mode or I suspect the engine note will change.

Yea there seems to be a shortage of them. Surprisingly main dealers are often quite cheap when it comes to clips etc.

Ideally you'll have to contact Audi directly for this.

Try sensor first then or speak to the garage who did the work.

Glad you got sorted Mike 🙂

Correct. It could be a sensor. But I'd definitely check the camshafts are at the correct position. It sounds like it could be out ever so slightly.

It's who I'll be going to for one when the time comes.

In theory yes, but can chains can also wear. Often by stretching which can lead to them needing replacing as the timing can jump a tooth with a stretched chain.

Great to see you back Andy. Yes it could be that, the only way you'll know is changing the parts. I'd say it's an Audi job as any parts of the electronic handbrake system will need to be coded to the car.

Ah right, in that case my two thoughts would be: 1. Has a sensor failed? 2. Has the car had a Cambelt/timing chain replaced recently in any service history you have? If timing is out by a tooth then the car could run nearly right but enough to flag the fault. 3. If it has a chain and it's the original it could have stretched causing the timing to jump a tooth. Which could cause the code. My wife had this on a Vauxhall Corsa a few years ago.

TT in Cyprus where I am in holiday.

Main dealer should have them at a reasonable price.

It relates to the camshaft position. So could be a cam sensor etc. Here's a link: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/a4-b6-platform-discussion-34/p0011-code-fixed-2919482/ I appreciate this link is for a b6 for the same principle applies. If bought from a dealer then take it back for them to fix.

Each one is custom so unfortunately not. For example my brother's one is fitted to a Suzuki swift.

Show report by Jack Phillips: The show was actually really big! all different clubs on one side and then non-club attendees were arranged in alphabetical order based on their manufacturers in the one-make section. there were also 5 yr olds doing motorbike stunts in an area in the middle 😂 There were bouncy castles/slides (for the kids) and i paid £11 for pulled pork, chips and a coke. it was spread over 2 fields and had an autojumble and other stands. I hung around with Paul for a while, and then he went off with his family and Ben Lam showed up (he is a facebook member but didnt know we had a stand). Great day!

I'd recommend powerflow exhausts as my brother and friends have used them. You can tune the exhaust note to what you want. And I think it's a lifetime warranty.

Might be worth trying a vin decoder. Or ringing an Audi dealer or parts dealer with your vin to see what comes up. Or do a hpi check. I'll admit S line and Le Man's do look similar.

My brother and friends have gone with powerflow exhausts and I'd highly recommend them. You can choose the note you want from the engine as well as the trim tip. I think you get s lifetime warranty too.

My list of jobs before my Germany trip is extensive lol.

Glad I could help and glad you got sorted 🙂

If you have no evidence of the gearbox oil being changed then I'd definitely get this done as old oil can definitely affect the s tronic ability to change gears.

So glad you got sorted 🙂

Nope, definitely not. Also there's different versions of c5 headlights. Allroads had xenon's but they're a wider headlight was the allroad is known as a wider body (s6/rs6 also wide body) compared to narrow body cars. Also facelift and pre-facelift differ too. I've been looking into it myself for my 02 facelift model. But for facelift narrow body cars they're rare. Some final editions has them though.

I'd recommend a diagnostic check. Also worth seeing when the gearbox oil was last changed. It could also be the module.
