Maybe it's changed since then? I didn't explore it much beyond what I wrote in the post and ended up sourcing the Q7 TPMS sensors for my winter wheels. (I wouldn't have been able to stand seeing the fault in the DIS for ~6 months out of the year)

I think it's likely that you'd have to do each module individually. - Europa 2008-01-10 08:40:21 (393 views)

Boston Driver (or Finally or Roswell or Folkie) - are you still tracking the thread? - Europa 2008-01-10 08:27:45 (347 views)

Great post! thanks! any way to get rid of the tire pressure monitor warning? - amirsafdari 2007-12-20 00:02:16 (493 views)

Anyone know when the dealers will be able to start enabling this?? - pmargiott 2007-12-19 20:22:32 (615 views)

This particular modification certainly steps on the toes of Audi of America's product strategy. - Europa 2007-12-20 07:11:02 (668 views)

Oh, believe me, I know that. It's total BS, if it's true. - Europa 2007-12-20 10:27:56 (478 views)

I doubt it, and if they do, they would probably charge $$ for their time... - Boston Driver 2007-12-20 06:17:55 (360 views)

Most likely? Never?! - Theresias 2007-12-19 21:42:57 (377 views)

I've been here for over five years and I'm always impressed by the tribal knowledge around here. - Europa 2007-12-19 07:56:16 (368 views)

This is outstanding, Boston - thank you! Near-beers on me. - Europa 2007-12-18 13:48:27 (357 views)

i think stoney needs to make a links page for every model, and this should def be the first - jimmyc83 2007-12-18 13:17:53 (410 views)

does this also voice activate all other commands such as mp3 and nav functions? - lent53 2007-12-18 13:03:39 (504 views)

Hmm... did you try poking around in "Nav" in the same way as "Telephone?" - Europa 2008-01-10 08:43:03 (384 views)

Same...I think we tried in FinallyS5's car and it would never connect :^/ - Boston Driver 2007-12-18 17:18:53 (462 views)

A list of modules installed in each car can be found by using the "gateway installation list". - Theresias 2007-12-19 11:14:56 (490 views)

I've also enabled function to raise & lower windows with keyfob remote - Folkie 2007-12-18 12:55:45 (696 views)

Now you tell us! My old car had that and it was great in the summer.. Please post! - Roswell'S5 2007-12-18 13:35:35 (523 views)

Note that this can be done using the physical key in the door lock. Just hold it in the unlock/lock - Europa 2007-12-20 07:15:04 (458 views)

True, but not as "cool" as doing it without touching the car... - Boston Driver 2007-12-20 19:01:14 (432 views)

LOL... awesome. - Europa 2007-12-20 22:31:36 (338 views)

Winter or not, here it is - Folkie 2007-12-19 07:29:04 (683 views)

Folkie, if you're still tracking this thread: what byte did you modify to change the windows? - Europa 2008-01-10 08:29:50 (379 views)

The long coding helper should allow you to deactivate it in Byte 00. - Theresias 2008-01-11 06:09:51 (312 views)

Thank you! - Europa 2008-01-11 08:41:45 (302 views)

I'll check tonight.. but make sure you have build 7.11 - Folkie 2008-01-10 10:35:25 (314 views)

Thanks! We did use beta 7.11.1, downloaded last night. - Europa 2008-01-10 10:41:22 (333 views)

I agree.. Even if I dont have a wife. No need for it now. - Roswell'S5 2007-12-18 14:18:15 (391 views)

Wife or remote windows??? LOL!!! - Boston Driver 2007-12-18 17:19:31 (331 views)

Yes Please do - this is the perfect thread to put it in. - Quattrings 2007-12-18 13:34:34 (432 views)

which begs the question: why isn't VC activated at delivery? - Fxhomie 2007-12-18 11:45:00 (468 views)

I know right? - FinallyS5 2007-12-18 12:36:04 (430 views)

awesome! Can't wait to try it. - JasonS4 2007-12-18 10:51:57 (335 views)

Boston Driver and FinallyS5- you guys rock! Thanks so much for this walk-through. - HouseofG 2007-12-18 10:48:27 (425 views)

seriously, one of the best posts ever. *thumbsup* - crespo 2007-12-18 10:02:39 (411 views)

Thanks again for working your computer skills on my car! Now can you activate the hidden turbo? - Roswell'S5 2007-12-18 09:46:11 (424 views)

can you take a pic of the connector under the dash? - DaveLew 2007-12-18 08:58:44 (517 views)

Boston, you made my Tuesday!! To bad i dont have my car yet!! - B6V8Driver 2007-12-18 08:54:44 (397 views)

Best Post EVER!!! - DaveLew 2007-12-18 08:52:48 (381 views)

Great post - thanks! Did you notice if it supports disabling TPMS? - Quattrings 2007-12-18 08:52:28 (527 views)

didnt see it, ill check soon - FinallyS5 2007-12-18 10:54:26 (432 views)

Thank you! I would owe you for that one. - Quattrings 2007-12-18 13:29:51 (424 views)

You can, but that is technically illegal, so I would not recommend doing it - Boston Driver 2007-12-18 12:37:08 (499 views)

Ya but technically so are my headlights but a cop will never know the difference. - Quattrings 2007-12-18 13:27:53 (370 views)

I am thinking more on the line of a tire blowout due to low pressure that was not detected by TPMS.. - Boston Driver 2007-12-18 13:34:53 (385 views)

...but if you absolutely HAD to disable the TPMS (for example if your winter setup had no sensors).. - Boston Driver 2007-12-18 17:26:06 (486 views)

FYI: That doesn't apply to the A5/S5 (8T), here you need to alter the Gateway Installation List. - Theresias 2007-12-19 11:18:51 (345 views)

It is as simple as removing the check mark in the box for the module? - Boston Driver 2007-12-19 17:55:06 (404 views)

Yep, should be - but keep in mind one should not disable it and it might be a legal issue. - Theresias 2007-12-19 18:03:49 (365 views)

I actually tried this on my Q7 awhile back w/o any luck. - mksap11 2007-12-20 17:56:50 (330 views)

The Q7 has a related coding in the instrument cluster as well as the MMI itself... - Theresias 2007-12-20 19:55:54 (420 views)

Perfect!!! ITS SO EASY!!! - FinallyS5 2007-12-18 08:43:42 (584 views)
