Hi chaps

Just bought a 53 plate A4 Cab 1.8T Sport. First impressions are good after a 500 mile blast to cornwall and back. Few questions though and be grateful if anyone can help out:

1) How do you un mute the TV, (I have the Sat Nav Plus unit)?
2) I have the Audi gen 2 phone cradle. Adaptors are £100 each for a new phone but I understand it should be bluetooth, any idea how I can make it discoverable?
3) Any tyre recommendations, for the 17" star alloys?
4) Is chipping the engine worthwhile, I understand it should be easy for the 1.8T

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Hi,

In answer to your questions...

1) I'm surprised the TV works at all (and if it does it wont be for long) as its analogue and they're turning all the analogue transmitters off. Digital TV and all that....
2) I seem to remember the very early phone kits (which yours would be on a 53 plate) didn't have bluetooth hence you cant pair with it. You may be able to retro fit the newer module at a cost though.
3) Over 4 years I've had Dunlop Sport Maxx and Goodyear Eagle F1's on mine , both lasted well and suit the car handling and ride quality wise.
4) 1.8T's, yes remap to your hearts content. You should get 190ish hp and a big dolop more torque out of a map.

Enjoy, its a great car. (not biased at all biggrin )

Thanks for that, so can you get a digi TV conversion kit?

Audi Yeovil seemed to think that it would have bluetooth already but am not picking it up so guess they assumed I had a later kit.

Any pointers as to who would do a remap to a decent standard?

Cheers,
James
