This is the only youtube channel that gives guidance on replacing the trunk light unit using the "U" shaped bracket and he is exactly correct. When removing the light the bracket might fall into the trunk leading you to believe it is installed after the light is put in place and then the bracket attached from the underside of the trunk lid. However, as Audi C7 explains, the bracket is replaced on the light fixture before being reinstalled in the trunk lid. While pressing the light fixture in place there will be an audible click when the bracket snaps over the lip of the lid.
Good day please assist am having problem with with both left n right inner backlights led it's 2014 model and main beam headlights for both left and right thanks
Thanks for the info. I was wanting to swap mine, but now I see how simple it is and bulb info, i’m going to tackle this soon. License plate is cool. Legal??
Hey, fantastic videos. I'm having trouble removing the upper bolt on the inside taillight housing (the one that you warn to not drop inside the trunk lid) on both sides. It turns but doesn't come out. Am I missing something,or am I just that unlucky and they're both stripped?
I have a 2012 audi a6 with the stock 20inch rims. When I got the car the psi was 32 in them and I found that it should be at 42. What psi have you found to work the best?
Audi say chains should be replaced around 80k miles on the 3.0T's. Thing to listen out for is chain slap on a cold start, if it lasts more than a couple of seconds or more importantly for any length of time on a warm start then it's time to replace. Until that happens then it is ultimately down to how good the cars been looked after, especially the oil service history. Always make sure when going to view one of these that the engine has been left at least overnight before starting, preferably longer if possible. It can take a while for the oil to fully drain away from the chain tensioners, especially in the post 2012 models.
The bolt that connects to the body/boot turns but doesnt come out ik the other one isnt supposed to but the one thats supposed to turns but dont come out
Hey man quick question for you have you done any transmission work if so what type of fluid and would I need to replace the gasket and filter? Cause whenever my car downshift to d2 it jerks kinda hard compared to other gears so I'm thinking it's just need a transmission flush
@@AudiC7Owners thanks and another question I got a check engine light for a code p050600 and it related to the idling control system and sometimes at low speeds the car like the stall out or when coming to a full stop it just turns off even if I have auto stop start turned off. Any experience with that?
I’m looking to try and find some of these in the Uk but there is onky Amazon throwing anything up that looks decent and id bet my ass that they will either throw up errors or stop working.

Do these have built in resistors to fool the canbus into believing they are 12v and not throw up dash lights?
Good day please assist am having problem with with both left n right inner backlights led it's 2014 model and main beam headlights for both left and right thanks
Just bought the lights through your link 💪🏼 good vid
You won't be disappointed!

If a cop runs the plate everything will come up correctly, but technically it isn't a DOT approved plate.

Sounds like something is wrong. You can gently pull the tail light towards you show unscrewing it to see if it comes out
I'll give that a try. Wow, you're awesome brother. Thanks for the quick reply.
Do you ever have water in your taillights? If so, how do you find where it's coming from and fix it?
I do not. That's indicative of a failed seal. I'd start by removing my tail lights & inspecting for damage where the lens meets the housing
Great simple video Cam! Keep it up!
Thanks bro! 🙏🏻

For daily driving run them at the recommended 42psi

How long do the timing chains last on the 3.0s? I’ve been looking at getting one of these cars and I know that’s a big cost.

I have 250k miles on mine if that helps. No chain maitenance
Any advice on fixing the folding mirror which doesn’t fold anymore. The passenger one does but the driver does not
Look at fuses first, but after that it sounds like the motor died
Is that fog bulb not serviceable without removing the light assembly? It looks like you might be able to just twist it out of there
Many thanks as always sir!
Man, how do you remove the plugs? I tried pushing them in togther and then pulling apart, but still nothing, they just seem stuck
The bolt that connects to the body/boot turns but doesnt come out ik the other one isnt supposed to but the one thats supposed to turns but dont come out
Is there no reverse indication bulb on the innerside light ?
None that I noticed
Will this work on a C7 A7?
Why are my LED bulbs flickering? do you have to code it or do you have to put a resistor in it?

I actually have a couple videos on this. I'd suggest you get the filter/gasket/screws from @fcpeuro, and use ROWE atf fluid. Get 6 bottles to be safe.

Is your car throwing any dash lights for dead bulbs since they’re LED?
Nope! These work with canbus
has anyone ever done clear taillights on the c7 chassis? i know there are none on the market but i’m kinda tempted to make my own
Does this work for the 2013 Audi a6 3.0t premium plus quattro?
Yes
what bulb is for revers light?! thank you!

Hey brother do you know if a s7 diffuser will fit on a A7
As long as the A7 is an S-Line and is the same generation.
A C7.5 diffuser doesn't fit on a C7
@@AudiC7Owners thank you ! Just saved me 699 bucks 😂
Can I use these type LED bulbs in my 2011 Q7?
You would need to verify your bulb Size. If you need help doing that email deAutoLED
Great video!!! Im putting the discount code in and its not working???
Are you using all uppercase letters?

It's probably not compatible with the canbus system
@flipflop1283 stupid question but did you make sure to plug the harness back into the light?
@@AudiC7Owners Alright thank you, one last question when I order the DE bulbs do they come in a pair or is it individual?
I wish this applied to my 2016 A6
The rear taillight assembly is different than this :/
Am STUCK
