    I'm new to Audi and have recently upgraded my Halogens to HID's and standard seats to Recaro's...I could use some assistance in getting rid of those annoying chimes/bongs/bells, getting rid of the 'air bag' warning light, (the Recaro's were from my same MY '06), and getting my courtesy lights to illuminate altogether rather than individually, (weird, I know).
    I'm willing to meet at anytime that's convenient, and bring beer/pizza/$'s...just hoping I can get my new winter vehicle ('06 A4 Avant 3.2 six-speed, blk/blk, btw) all set in the next few weeks.
    Thanks in advance, John

    Thanks for the reply...I'm reasonably technologically literate, but would hate to fry my CPU. Is it really that straight-forward?

    Yes, very straightforward. Instructions are provided online and you cannot really go wrong.

    I went with this one, http://www.ebay.com/itm/HEX-CAN-USB-...431185?vxp=mtr and have enjoyed playing with it. Every mod I have done works great except for the remote windows after I swapped out the battery. It's quite easy to do mods.

    I have found non genuine ross tech cables to be unreliable with DTCs though...

    I have never had a problem pulling/clearing DTC's or coding, other than trying to find why I lost my remote windows after a battery swap.
