I can't remember if I've tried opening them or not since I did the 3G retrofit but I'm stuck. Thoughts?

Edit:
I just tried my other FOB and it locks and unlocks like it should but it doesn't do anything with the windows. I think the key FOB's are the issue.

Sweet, thanks guys! I'll have to play with it tomorrow, sounds like an easy fix.

I've had a custom fit clear-bra on my other car for few years now and, in all honesty, I don't think I'd do it again. When I weigh the cost incurred vs. the longevity and life spanof the product, you might as well just repaint the bumper every 3-5 years.

You haven't tried xpel ultimate!!!

Well I checked and can't find where it would be in the green screen. Everything is already checked off in there. I'll figure it out one day when I have time. Now I need to work on getting an AMI cable to work with the Kufatec wire block in the back of the MMI.

Its not in the green screen. Its in the orange screen. The one that has how much oil you have or things like that. Its under the conveinence option

Yup, in the Car menu there should be a "Convenience Windows" setting that allows you to set which windows open and close with the key.

**shonseb** · 08-13-2015 01:04 PM

Convenience Windows is located in the door lock menu of the mmi.

Well I found it and fixed it, thanks again guys! Sometimes we over complicate things when they are easy and right in front of you.

**Slick_B8** · 08-14-2015 11:33 AM

You should be ashamed. You are able to completely retrofit an mmi system and such but you cant figure out minimal things out. SMH

:P

**shaunm82** · 08-14-2015 12:07 PM

Great build!! Finally took the time to read all of this, awesome work~

Next up is the Color DIS/ new cluster right???

I saw you poke around in that thread, a write up like you did with the 3G retro would be awesome!

Thanks!!

Yeah I am still looking at changing out the temp panel and cluster. I think I might just order them and try it out. The cluster looks like I would run into issues since it saves the miles I guess. But I read you can change it some how as long as it's under 80k, then it locks out.

**shaunm82** · 08-14-2015 04:14 PM

Yeah that was my concern too, the miles. I was even considering finding one that was slightly higher than mine and once I reached that point, swap it out then lol.

lol, that might work. But a dealer would go nuts if you sold or traded it with miles not matching.

**Cloudg8** · 09-06-2015 09:51 AM

Hey brother. Question. Do you by chance if the facelift rear bumper cover will fit the B8. Or is it better to just get the regular 2010-2013 S4 one?

That is a good question. I would say yes, it would fit.

Can anyone else comment on this please!?!?

**zokissima** · 09-09-2015 08:04 AM

Did you ever end up getting the ECS boost gauge?

I ordered one and finally installed it a couple of days ago. It's a very easy install, the product is quality, and functions very well. I would recommend it.

Na, I haven't really been looking at a gauge since I'm waiting to upgrade the turbo at the same time. I think ECS is the only company selling a boost gauge now and wish AWE still had theirs. I liked where AWE installed theirs a little more than ECS. Now that you have told me your review I might just go with them and buy it now, I might as well.

And here you said that the EFR kit and S-line seats were your last mod~! Then little things like this pop up here and there. You are running out of things to do though!

Podi sells a few different boost gauge options for our cars.

You can grab these guys!

They have the set listed in pieces, but all best offer. I bet that'd sell at a good price if you bought em all.

I've been watching eBay and to be honest, I don't like the S4 seats. They have a lot of S4 seats but it's very rare to see S-Line seats.

Looking for black full leather S-Line seats (front & rear).

About $1600 asking for all the pieces. Plus shipping. Why doesn't the rear seat split fold!

**shaunm82** · 09-09-2015 11:01 AM

Yeah, I think I've seen one set and the price was just nuts for the S-Line seats.

I'll keep an eye out as well. I'm also always watching ebay lol. 'Window' shopping you can call it.

Yeah, great price! Plus they are local to me, so I'm always on their page! I made an offer on a couple of items (set) for $200 less and they accepted because I made up the set. I'd bet they would do the same.

Why not the P3Cars digital vent gauge?

How about the power folding mirrors? No real need for them on my car but I do think they are quite cool.

The rear folding seats would be nice. Wish I had those.

Your car will be truly transformed with the S-Line sport seats. What's the difference with rear S-line seats? Are those different than what comes stock with the front non-S-Line leather front sport package seats?

I don't want a digital gauge.

I have thought about the folding mirrors and might add that to my list.

All of us have rear folding seats...

Yes, they are nice and the rear is just a different design just like the front with S-Line seats.

After a certain model year, I want to say 11+ but I'm not sure, folding rear seats were an option on B8s except on higher trim levels. I think they reverted back to standard with the B8.5.

I have a 2010 and anyone I've ever known to own one of these, their seats fold.

It was mentioned when I got my car... I literally laughed in the salesman's face and called it a blatant cash grab by Audi. Believe it or not he agreed with me. The Premiums didn't get it after 2010.

I know where you can get an APR style K04 for $1000 delivered with a warranty. It's rebuilt, but, you could get two for less than the price of the CTS kit and not have to change out your HFC, or one and use the difference for the IE intake manifold. I'm either going this route or the $1400 one like Carlos74 has.
