Steve Q's post in engine wiring BKN to the CGK was marked as the answer
My advice would be to take the wiring harness, ECU, injection pump and maybe instrument cluster from the donor car. As the imobiliser is linked to the ECU, cluster and pump.
You could risk it and hope its compatible and/or get an auto electrician to wire up the harness.
Also I've hidden your other thread as it's a duplicate.

Yes it can be retrofitted but it's expensive and could void your warranty. You'd be better asking the dealer if it can be fitted now.

From looking online this spec is very rare.
I'd estimate it's worth between 2-3k.

Steve Q's post in AUDI A6 AVANT (19 plate) REAR SEATBELTS CHIME DEACTIVATION. was marked as the answer
You will find it is an offence for the driver or any passenger to not wear a seatbelt in any country in western Europe. On top of that the driver gets the fine for each passenger not wearing a belt.
Not only that, I doubt you'll find a company that will deactivate the chime as I believe it's an offence to tamper with safety systems regarding seatbelts.
Furthermore, if these systems are found to be tampered with then your MOT and insurance is void.
I just can't understand why passengers wouldnt want to wear a seatbelt, the world as moved on since the 1950s/60s & 70s.
I'd advise your passengers to watch videos on what happens when they don't wear a seatbelt. Needless to say, the one sat behind you can ultimately kill you as they hit the back of your seat!

Steve Q's post in WATER FALLING FROM ROOF was marked as the answer
Not heard of any other cases. As it's a new car I'd recommend for you to get it checked by Audi. As it could be a faulty seal or nis-aligned door.

Steve Q's post in transmission oil change or clutch ? was marked as the answer
Apologies, I've just re-read your post, should have read it properly the first time 🤦♂️ If it's just first gear could it be a linkage?
My wife has this similar issue on her Corsa many years ago.
Engine wise, plans are afoot to get it back in the road. Early days yet but watch this space 😉

It'll be expensive to upgrade the screen.
Regarding the SD card it doesn't have to be a 2015 one.

Make a note of the codes. Then clear them. See what ones come back and change the relevant parts on the codes that return in the code reader.

Steve Q's post in Inlet Manifold needed was marked as the answer
I've been having similar issues with my older A6. I've resorted to my mechanic giving me the party number then searching that part number on eBay. This method has not let me down yet. Wider your search to international sellers too as this is what I had to do.
