    It is evidently a VW driven as the computer is set up by them to search for programming changes so if you pay $100 to flash stock and restock each time, they can detect it in the system. Evidently you have to find a good service manager to become friends with or it will be caught and pictures taken and put into the VW system.

    I have talked to 8 people in the last week that are TD1 or whatever from showing up with apr, etc upgrades. Including the guy that works at Audi HQ. They just think it is worth it.

    It is okay, if you can actually drive it it is okay. Driving around town in non-sport mode it is amazing boring. No sound, fairly pedestrian take off. It is just not an interesting car to drive during normal driving.

    Trying to figure out the worthwhile changes for the Vag com thing. Most of the non-lighting things from the list already happen on my car. (Reverse mirror tilt, guage sweep, etc.). Everything else seems to just be changing how the lights work. Several others I have to research as I have no idea what the acronyms mean. Any recommendations on must haves from this list? The parking assist turn off time is biggest for me as the backup camera stays on way too long after you put it in drive and take off. Disable After-wipe of windscreen wipers Disable amber corner lights Disable amber side markers Disable Key warning (keyless models) Disable LED 'wink' on turn signal Disable "Lights are on" warning Disable NAV & Phone warning messages while entering data at speed Disable Seatbelt Chime Enable Adaptive brake lights Enable Ambient Interior Lighting Control Enable Automatic Gear selection shown in DIS Enable Automatic Hill Hold Assist 'lite' Enable Auxiliary ventilation Enable Battery meter Enable DIS with Efficiency Program Enable Double Disarm Beep Enable DRL Selectable via MMI Enable DRL Enable Euro parking lights that turn on signal at night Enable fog lamp to come on for the same side as that turn signal Enable Front Turn Signals as Parking lights Enable Gauge Test/Needle Sweep Enable Hidden menu in MMI Enable Import CDs to MMI's HD Enable Independent Fogs control with high beams Enable Lap Timer Enable LEDs remain bright for parking lights Enable Rear Tail Lights on with DRLs Enable Release Parking Brake without putting foot on Brake Enable Release Parking Brake without putting seatbelt Enable Remote Operation windows&sunroof Enable Reverse mirror tilt Enable Speed through MMI Enable TPMS Enable VIM on MMI Set Audi parking system - Switch OFF Speed Set Custom ADS settings Set Headlight washer - cycles Set Headlight washer - duration Adjust Consumption in DIS Adjust LED Brightness

    Yeah, tuning would help, but each of those things would end my 50,000 mile warranty as soon as it made an appearance at the dealer.

    Raffy, it is entirely possible I will get too bored with this and sell it off to get something nicer. I tend to waste a lot of money buying things trying to be sensible instead of just getting something worthwhile from the beginning.
  7. VPI
    No not really. Audi dealer was pretty disappointed when I told them how boring I think the S4 is.

    Just put on my custom Audi car cover as I will be traveling for a bit. What a massive piece of $300 shit. Tissue paper that does not fit well and will maybe last 3 weeks. Should have gotten one of the online custom covers.

    I prefer the looks of the Golf R myself. And sound is not a competition as the S4 makes no sound.
  10. VPI
    Saw a Red Golf R pass by on the walk to work today. That car just looks and sounds so much better than the S4 as it passes.

    Colin needs no excuse to get his leather chaps, he has a closet full already.

    Went to my first Cars and Coffee in the area this morning. This is the lower end one while Saturday morning is the multi-million dollar car C&C in McLean. This might be the last of these though as the police showed up as so many hotrod douchebags were burning out when leaving the parking lot so the police said no more, after many years of this event occurring here. First the VW Mafia Cars: Vintage Golf Rally Audis

    Drove up to the Canadian border, where Dan lives, for some crawfish, sangria and beer.
  16. VPI
    Tint, but none of that other shit is happening.
  17. VPI
    No more stupid stickers.

    Watches

    VPI replied to Dusty Chalk's topic in Miscellaneous

    I would have traded 5 of each of those Omegas for that watch. DavidSW is big on the Rolex Forum, I have always wondered how he sold so many new watches not being a dealer.

    Yeah I am not sure if making my windows roll up from the key is worth $350. I will have to look into it to see if there is anything else it does I would want.
  20. VPI
    Looks like I need a HEX-USB+CAN Interface at a minimum

    VW Mafia, are all of the VAG-Com things the same or is there specific ones I should be looking for? I have managed to burn through a quarter tank of gas in 65 miles for a whopping 12.1 MPG so far. I need to drive my full size SUV as a fuel economy car at this point.
  22. VPI
    Yeah, if I take them off it will be soon. It drives alright. Brakes are a bit mushy but I took it out to Georgetown Pike for a quick handling tour and found it to be good, maybe not as sharp as I would have expected. That road is fantastic if it was not for all the 3 Series BMWs putting along riding their brakes through the hills and corners. Still trying to get used to all the tech as the touch screen on my Pioneer head unit kind of spoiled me. A few pics from Great Falls Park. (Why is no one else posting any pictures, thread needs more pictures)

    I am seeing a trend here, but I am still thinking about it. It is not something I have seen on other Audis so I kind of like that. I also paid $85 dollars for the stickers according to my window sticker, so I assume they are made of sterling silver or something valuable.
  24. VPI
    Thanks Shelly. I am a big fan of the blue as well. I need to decide if I am going to have them take off the Quattro stickers off the rear doors. I think they are goofy but they say it is a historical reference so it is "cool". Also not digging the stereo interface as I have become accustomed to the Pioneer deck with touch screen and all the great graphics.

    Speaking of the VW Mafia, I have this fancy license plate holder I do not need now. Anyone want it? Just cover shipping and I will send it your way.
