Thank you!!
Thank you! I did buy one and installed a 220 line on a 50 amp breaker in the garage. The one in the garage has a 25 foot cable so it can sit in the driveway with garage door closed.. takes like, 1.5 hours and its charged! Its overkill, but I wanted to future proof the house. I keep the stocker charger in the car in case i'm at like, an Airbnb and find a plug haha. The built in charging scheduler is pretty awful, i gave up on that and use the app the charger came with. Way better - totally agreed.
It does the side mirror dip with this thing? Oh that sounds great - these are the things I did with my previous car (2011 Subaru Impreza) and i loved messing around with the car like that. I'll look into that - precisely what I was hoping to learn!
Are all the doors pre-wired for this or just on some trim levels?
Photo is a bit dark, but that's a puddle light on the bottom of the driver door.
$10 for two of them and <10minutes to install.
(Or $300 from my local Audi dealer)
ya all 4 of mine are too - Here is a you tube that shows how it's done - scroll to 1:10 - a small screwdriver and about 10 mins you can do all 4. I bought a set on Amazon, though Amazon no longer sells it. Here's an eBay for one.. (all links embedded).On my top trim ("Technik" in Canada) 2016, all four doors are wired.
I mean, it's not too tough to tell - hold your hand under the bottom sill of the door and see if you get light shining on it.
The little light housing just pops out with a plastic pry tool - unplug what's there, plug in the new thing.
I bought my E-Tron used so I'm not sure if the previous owner enabled the reverse mirror dip on my car or if it was enabled from factory on my car. To check if see if enabled:
Whaaaaa - is this how you set the mirror thing or just how to test if it is enabled?
I gave it a shot a few different ways yesterday when heading to the store and otherwise.. I couldn't get it to go. Is yours Prestige? I'm Premium Plus.. so far no go. I know the OBDeleven (from what I read) will enable it probably.. i may buy it on Amazon, set everything the way I want to, and return it. HA.
Might be a Prestige thing then - I was hunting for one and finally gave up. I'll try the mirrors a few more times in different ways. Maybe I can make it happen
Ok sounds good looks like I’ll just get an OBD11
Ah! That's great to hear that the hardware is all in the car and all it takes is a few software tweaks.
