I like a nice stereo in my car. This isn’t really for speed but for a comfortable ride that does well in the snow, should last a while, well into 200,000km. Good tech and lane assist. Just curious. Switching from a 2016 Touareg with 150,000km on it and still seems strong.

Mr. Apollo posted:I just picked up a “new” 2019 RS5 Sportback. I say “new” because it’s a new car but it’s effectively a two year old model now and the 2021s are starting to arrive at dealers. I guess they were slow sellers because there’s still about a dozen across the country (I’m in Canada) and Audi didn’t release a 2020 model in North America. Beaut, what did you get it for?

So I bought that Q8, and it's awesome. Really shines at night. Anyway, what is the best coding resources these days? For example I want to enable the interior lighting features as that's pretty much the only thing I care about comparing the progressiv vs technik trim levels.

Will do. Haven't coded anything since that BMW 135i you rode in like 10 years ago lol. I'm sure things have progressed a lot since then.

DoesNotCompute posted:It has a built in LTE "phone" essentially which is deactivated for the Canadian market, if you turn it on and have a spare sim card kicking around it can then download google maps and use it as an overlay in the built in navigation. Lots of info out there about getting the maps working if you tether to your phone for data but was happy to get it all working within the car without needing a phone. Can also use the car as a wifi hotspot now however the reception is spotty, I ordered an LTE antenna that should just plug into the back of the unit and I'm hoping that'll help things. My 2019 Q8 has the sim enabled in Canada and all data functions including google maps works fine without a cell phone

I have a 2019 Q8 and the assistants are quite good. If the lines are painted nicely I could mostly hands off drive on the highway with no issue. I love it, something I didn’t have before, of course I don’t hands off drive but you just rest your hand on the wheel and it mostly just works. What I care about is consistency. I want to know what the system is gonna do, even if it’s the wrong thing. It’s easy to think like the computer and you start to realize what the car will do before it does it.

Uncle Lizard posted:The people that have answered I thanked them. I'm done asking this thread about this car because I have gotten all the information I am going to get here, and it was fast less than I was hoping. There are simply a select few that are using this opportunity to be loving assholes is all, especially Suburban Dad trying to tell me when and what I can post in the thread. They can get hosed. Then there's the people telling me to buy a Honda. If that is what I wanted I would have bought a Honda a long time ago, and I wouldn't be asking about all Audi in a VW/Audi thread. I ask about what to look out for when buying a 13 year old Audi, and I get told to triple my budget and buy a Honda. Thanks for the help. You’re such a chud. You don’t insult and complain about a thread and who’s posting. You thank people generously for spending their time to educate you or answer to the best of their ability, then you go find other resources. I hope your $4k car leaks oil and leaves a big stain where you park. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Uncle Lizard posted:I researched the VIN number and I am going to call my mechanic to see what they would charge for a timing belt job if it is needed, how much for a buyers inspection, and what their calendar looks like. PCV valve I can do myself if necessary, so that should not be an issue is it comes up. Once I have the cost for these things and a time frame for a buyers inspection, I will contact the owners to see about looking at it more in depth (when the timing belt was done last, service records, test drive, etc), see how flexible they are on price, and go from there. We'll see. Lmao this guy. Nice kys post btw. You should prob take a break from the internet before you melt your brain. Nitr0 fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Aug 22, 2021 |

VelociBacon posted:Crazy to me that a 2017 Tiguan is even possible to steal without the actual key. I would have thought it's fully immobilized etc. Decrypting keys is not hard. Directional antenna, a raspberry pi, you can steal the most expensive cars on earth.

Inner Light posted:Audi and VAG has come a long way in reliability. I won’t count your chickens but I don’t think you’ll have to worry about much beyond scheduled maintenance for a long time. Enjoy the whip. My 2019 Q8 with 57000km is in the dealer for the next month because apparently there was metal shavings in the oil and it needs a new engine. No charge, but the ol reliability may not be what she used to be.

trilobite terror posted:Every day that I drove an Atlas I’d rue it not being a Touareg, but instead its conceptual opposite: a car purpose-built exclusively for mediocrity instead of capability and for squeezing more revenue out of an already overpriced transaction Truth. I own a 2017 Touareg and was going to buy a new one when they decided to axe the line and come out with the monstrosity they call the Atlas. Gutless fuckin wonder it is. I was forced to go to an Audi Q8 to get a semblance of a Touareg back.
