Destroying a B6 Audi A4 with $250 coilovers
Today we poorly installed cheap maxspeedingrods coilovers on this A4. They actually rode decently good but are pretty bouncy, I was expecting more of a crashy ride.

Audi A4/A5 B8/B8.5 Axle Removal tips (passenger side) EASY

There are other great videos on UA-cam for the general steps for axle replacement (shopdap has a good one) but this is the unique trick for our cars. I got stuck and saw other videos where a guy took out a torch and hammer to get the upper control arm out.. stupid. This method is far easier and has less chances of things going wrong.

This video sucks! but hopefully it can help get to the point of a more perfect install on your first try. This radio is not easy to install... but I belive it to be the best aftermarket radio for the B8/B8.5. For your AMI adapter, all you need is for the car to be in AUX mode. Most cheap bluetooth adapters do this passivly. If you already have a bluetooth AMI adapter, it should work unplugged f...

Remove TPMS Tire Pressure Light MK5 Jetta/Golf/Rabbit (OBDELEVEN)

Tools required: OBDEleven device (any) PRO Subscription: obdeleven.com/en/home/164-pro-plan-0634359482967.html This is technically illegal in the United States, however my wheels do not have TPMS sensors in them so doing this simply removes the light and not the system.
The auxiliary source disappears very often, then it shows again suddenly! It’s very annoying,could u know or help please
Have you ever had issue with the sound from apple car play or android auto ? There is no sound when I play music from my phone.
My mmi menu does not open, you know what s the problem?
Could you include the links in the discription please. For the camera and the airbag light
How has this unit held up?
@@MrClimateCriminal good! I've had it for far over 6 months and works like the day I got it.
Great video! I have an A4 Quattro B8 2009 needs replacing. Can you provide the link or part number of the GKN Axel assembly thanks!
@@pdjray hey there, I order everything from FCP EURO.
Would you be able to share the link for the unit. Thank you
Hi, I have the same problem with the frame not fitting properly. How did you solve it in the end?
@@Vinz0010 stopped thinking about it ;) never got it to fit perfectly.
Turbo s 😮
i own one 2 also looking to upgrade the radio
Hi I am having the air bag light problem and I don’t think you ever linked the airbag light harness. Can you please reply with the link? 1:13
How is the Sound quality
Perfect, and if you dont like it you can always use the USB outputs and your own DAC.
Installing this kit cause my control unit to stop getting power
Press in & hold the drivers side temp control if you want to sync climate without going into the menu :)
Thank you! My friend told me this a few months ago and I felt dumb I didnt already know it.
hi want opegraid may on q5 2017 wou much
I’m having trouble with the airbag light can you show how you installed your airbag harness?
Some things to know: The airbag harness needs the OEM button and the new button to be plugged into the specific plugs. The one with more wires is for the OEM button. Second, If the airbag light comes on, it usually isn't going off without a code clear even if the issue is resolved. If you are having difficulty with hiding the OEM button behind the dash, I cut mine up as small as possible and jammed it where I put the GPS antenna.
@@itsmaxtonvwaudi any chance you run into the problem of going into limp mode post installation?
@@jesse21rodriguez radio installation should have absolutely no effect on ECU or TCU.
Buena pantalla bro!
Pathétique et ridicul....
ight frenchie
almost lost his fingers, dude be carful
Saving this video for when I get mine
I have my resonator removed from my seat leon 1.8tsi its sounds really good specially the dsg farts. But i want it a bit louder is it worth the muffler delete? Or does it drone
aye boss nice music taste
You are right. Last week, I installed the same unit in my Q5. I had constant interference, hissing, and static noise and an extremely low volume using Spotify and podcasts. The installer almost gave up, and his last try was to disconnect the MMI module from the cable (a blue kind of Lego small brick), and by a miracle, everything started working fine. No interference and the same level of volume as the radio. Now, when in media, instead of seeing it displayed in the centre of the instruments MMI, I see AUX. The Aliexpress seller was useless and only suggested buying an FM filter to reduce the noise. All in all, now it is working great.
What a total waste. The operational use of this tool (?) is a joke. Far too many steps just to get the thing working then to find out you have to BUY a Pro plan to e able to use it for anything. $59. for the pro(?) plan and still NO guarantee that it will do what a person buys it for. After the pro plan then what buying another subscription for be able to read the pro plan? It is obvious the person posting this video is part of the business that owns the company. What a total waste ! ! ! !
When I made this video OBD11 was only $25 a year, now it has increased to be not worth it for me. You can purchase a Ross Tech VCDS cable and do the same thing for a $200 flat fee.
OBD11 is still a powerful tool for reading live data and trouble codes, but you do need the subscribtion to write to the car like in this situation.
thnx for the vid i still got mine 2 years ago and stil didnt put in yet ^^
Got mine from aliexpress and only issue is the apple play issue you had
Mine came with a female and male aux part of harness , I had no sound until I plug them into each other despite me having the Mmi aux adaptor already in glovebox too . Would removing the blue quad mess that connection up? My sound is kind crap rn including on the radio
Thank you for this video !Hi my sound quality is kinda crap I have exact same head unit I believe . What exactly is the blue square in quad ?and how do we push it out ik you said with a needle but kind of confused still. I saw some people saying we can bypass the factory amp (light blue) and splice it into a power source (red wire)? And finally my AirPlay will not connect to mirroring have you had this issue ?
Shoot me an email, itsmaxton@outlook.com and I can help you with the sound quality. My unit doesn't support airplay, so I wouldn't be able to help with that.
@@itsmaxtonvwaudi i also sent you an email
@@itsmaxtonvwaudi awesome tysm I emailed yoy
Did you have any issues with audi mmi unit not fully turning off after you installed this?
I have not had any battery drain issues.
@@itsmaxtonvwaudi good to know! I had to cut away some trim to get the screen to sit flush, also make sure you transfer the metal clips to the new screen surround so it doesn't pop out
If I don’t intend to use gps do I need to even install it ?
No, but its easy enough to do right in the case you do in the future.
My car says “navigation not activated every time “ do you have this issue ? And did you hook up a mic? Thanks !
Hi! I would like to ask something about the head unit. For other brand head units I saw that there is separated mic included in the package. Is this had one? And If yes for phone calls it will use this mic? Thanks in advance for your answare!
Yes, this one came with a seperate mic... I still haven't installed it! Not sure where to put it where it would be completely invisible.. most people mount it under the gauge cluster but that would bother me.
If you are technical enough you can also program th mmi to be in aux mode, that way you don't need the adapter
Havent looked into doing this, whats involved?
You put a great effort to make this video, thanks for the work
Can I install it also on Audi Q5? And where did you buy this?
what about right hand drive cars?
They sell kits for those as well!
Hi I have an Android system similar to yours, it all works for me just that I don't see the weather information, I practically always have to go back to the original Audi menu to see it...
I have this kit ready to install but I only want it to run google maps so am planning to power it and link it to my phone via bluetooth for gps. Has anyone done this?
You can use your phone hotspot, or run google maps offline which works pretty well.The unit has its own GPS antenna so its capabile of navigation without internet, but you wont get traffic data without internet.
Hi, i got a question, the bottom corner of silver plastic near the hazard button fits perfect like before instalation? I have this problem after install the new screen… silver plastic ornament doesn t fit it back like before and is annoying…
No, mine also does not fit well and it bugs me too. Not sure why it wont clip in.
Same lol I just glued it on
Love it, man... I installed a 12.3 screen (Android) on mine...touch screen 2010 A4, purchased mine from a store out of CAN.
Do you think the sound would be better if I just used the ami as a regular aux cord? Currently I have a CarPlay head unit that’s portable and just plug my phone in for music. Is that a good alternative than plugging the ami into the unit and using Bluetooth
There is no issue using AMI on a stock car, I'd assume the sound quality would be the same coming from an AMI device or this head unit.
I’ve been shopping for one of these for a while :) your video was so helpful! I also think the screen looks better than the big tacky ipad kid ones 🤣
💯 *PromoSM*
Do you have a link to the screen less carplay/android auto box you showed? I have a 2013 Allroad with nav and B&O sound so wanted to keep that stuff but really want Android auto.
Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! $201.00 33％ Off | Apple Carplay Wireless Interface For Audi A4 A5 Q5 2010-2015 Android Auto Rear Camera Car Accessories a.aliexpress.com/_mOletZ8 This is what I purchased, but I have not tested it or installed it in a car.
Hi, looking at similar for A5 Coupe 2015 RHD concert radio, audi sound system non nav , rear pdc only, Are all functions accessible from steering wheel , concert dial without touchscreen input? Are the underlying factory functions affected when controlling the android screen? Any way to retain factory hazzard air bag switch.Any fix for the hissing.Thx.
The concert dial did not control the screen at all on my unit. When controlling the screen with the dial on the steering wheel, the gauge cluster display will read something like "external audio device active" and take up the entire screen until the "mode" button is pressed. However, the mode button is also the home/back button for the andriod radio, so it will always take you back one page when "mode" is pressed to return the speed to the center cluster screen. My solution was to map the nav button to carplay, so once im done controlling the screen I press mode, then nav after to return the gauge cluster screen to the speed and to keep the andriod unit on carplay. Hissing is not a concern, I had the radio cranked very high up. The sound is good at normal/loud listening volumes. Make sure the blue connector is removed from the quadlock or you will have bad interference. I dont think the factory hazard airbag switch fits in the trim, I didn't try though.
will unit still function if you remove y cable and reinstall factory hazzard switch leaving the connector on the android trim empty ?might chance one of these units and modify a 7'' rhd trim to fit larger screen and mount factory switch.Can you measure the screen cut out in the supplied trim
@@aldo5305 the airbag Y connector is needed to prevent an airbag light error on the dash, does not impact functionality of the car or head unit in any way.
Hi, I wanted to tell you, can it be installed that I have an Audi A4 B8 avant 2011, namely MMi 2G low/basic monochrome red? Let me know
Check the product I linked in the description, they have many different varients for different cars. Keep in mind install can be slightly different on different models, and there are no instructions provided.
Thanks a bunch was tired of this annoying light on my 2007 Jetta.
Your just turning the application off, why not just replace the bad sensor?
$600 car😂 don't care
@@itsmaxtonvwaudi Let get your car for 650$ I'll take care of it
did you only remove the rear muffler and kept the resonator in?
No both are removed. Rear muffler only makes almost no difference, I recommend deleting only the resonator (what I have on my GLI now).
Did you get a check engine light?
No!
