.: Specializing in the Audi B8

I've added an Infotainment section dedicated to the MMI system. There is tons of stuff to get up but I managed to get a few items for you to check out. The real interesting stuff isn't listed yet and there is SOOO much to come including activating Video in Motion with nothing more than an SD card!

Please note the site has recently been moved to a new host and is currently under repairs. You know how it goes, the movers always break something. The PR Decoders are currently offline and I will get them back up once I can remember how I wrote the code (then convert them to the new server). Other updates will be happening prior to that so stay tuned.

This is a tool that will allow you to take the PR codes found on the sticker in the trunk or in the service manual and tell you what options your car was built with. If your not sure what this is check out the article on Audienthusiasts here.

Coding to add the ADS option to your 3G Plus equipped FL car. This coding also includes the proper coding to get the steering changes, something I believe was missing up to now on most sites. Thanks to Ben for working on this.

This is a great mod that can probably be done for around the $100 mark and a good afternoon. One of my favorites. As with the TPMS you have to have the proper ABS controller to do this install. Well worth the effort to never roll on a hill or be able to release your brake in heavy traffic.

Here is a nice and inexpensive mod for you. Installing the glove-box cooler Audi forgot to install in the A4/A5 B8 cars. Hope you enjoy this one and finally something you can do for most likely under $20.

A new application section has been added. This includes a calculator to help people who do navigation upgrades to get rid of the Software error in module 5F.

The VIM page has been updated and I have added my own generator to the page to help people get the VIM codes online. Still in testing but looking good.

There are lots of other little updates and changes going on in the site. I hope to keep them coming over the next few months as I update and include some 2013 coding updates for the already listed VAG mods.

Want to add a little more protection? This upgrade will walk you through adding the interior sensor with tilt sensor and the alarm by-bass switch. .

This project covers the upgrade of the rear door locks on the North American models. I've also included instructions on how to install door lock switches if your car didn't come standard with them.

Long in the making. Here is a great way to light up those door pockets with a nice factory look and control.

Adding a touch of class with a Leather Manual Wallet

If you hate the Nylon Owners Manual Wallet as much as I do you'll love this inexpensive alternative for a touch of class in the cockpit.

Thanks to a lot of hard work I am now successfully able to alter the rear taillight configuration. I have reprogrammed a number of cars remotely now to include additional lights for braking and to convert North American taillights over to a Euro configuration.  There is no release date right now for the coding so if your anxious to get this done to your car drop me a line. I am doing remote coding for those who require it.

This break through can allow A5/S5 owners to add rear fog lights to their cars now using the extra brake lights on the outside of the LED lights. I can also now convert US bulb lights to Full Euro bulb lights. Just add switch and you have fogs.

Changing your  Driving/Fog light the safe way.

The Tabs on these grills break way to easy. Here is the safe way to change your fog light bulb.

This was sparked by a member of Audizine and led to this write up. Now you can add a little bit of that missing sound to your standard system.

Enabling Auxiliary Ventilation.

Looking for a way to vent out that hot air on a warm day before getting in your car after work? Well that's one use for this feature.

The latest DIY is complete. Still many more to come but this one was something of interest to a few people to I rushed it to the top of the list.

Well it's been a few weeks since the last project appeared on the site but not to worry, I was up to something. Effective immediately you can sign up for emails when the site is updated or if I have anything interesting to share.

Thanks to the contributions of a few people I managed to buy an email administration add on for the site so you can sign up and I can send emails to the entire group where there is something to report. You'll find the sign up on the right hand side of practically every page. As time progresses I can expand this to what type of updates and information you want to receive.

Now for projects behind the scenes. I have managed to change the LED's on my MMI controls to match the screen colours. If you look at your car you have Blue for NAV, Green for Phone and Orange for Radio. Well now all the LED's on the buttons match the screen. DIY coming soon.

This past weekend I installed a Stratmosphere short shifter and found a new love for my car. More to come on that. There is currently a write up and a wicked group buy going on over in the B8 section on Audizine for this unit. Your chance to save 30%. So stay tuned and thanks for those few that have enabled me to grow the functions of the site.

As time moves on I hope to add a live chat and blog as contributions allow.

Slightly Larger DIY but not extremely difficult. So now a way to have those factory folding mirrors that the ROW owners could order.

Need an extra plug to charge something up or want to keep something out of sight while it's plugged in? What ever the reason here is another factory option that didn't make it to NA.
