Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
i've been trying to do the remote windows thing, but i keep getting a pop-up saying no response from controllers. i can't even get to the point where the original codes show up and the buttons become clickable. i tried the troubleshooting on the ross-tech site, but no dice.
any suggestions? |

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
Yeah, does your VAG program recognize the cable? Even if it is not a Ross Designed cable, it will still recognize it and tell you it is not a Ross cable. If it does not recognize it, try all USB ports and COM 1-4 on each USB port to see if you get a recognized cable. Did Windohs detect a serial to USB cable when you attached it and install the necessary software 1st? It should do that 1st off. You may also need to go into the Device Manager and play around with your COM setting to attach COM Port 1 etc with a particular USB port. I had to do that with mine prior to it working.

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
it's not a ross-tech cable, but windows recognizes it and has it set to com2. when i run a test in the vag-com program everything comes up as ok. i checked for fault codes more than a year ago, it worked fine and i haven't changed anything since then. but i'll try reinstalling/updating the cable drivers and see if that helps.
thanks for the replies. |

thanks for the replies. ok still no luck after reinstalling the driver :\ i click the buttons for the section where that feature is, and it still says "no response from controllers". it also doesn't find anything when i scan for fault codes, and i know it should be finding at least one. |
Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
Is ur cable USB or Serial?
I had a version of the vag-com software and it didnt work with my serial, the same problem u had, but the i got an older version and it worked fine. could be related. There are different versions avaliable for download on the site. They tell you which is for what, and if i remember correctly you have to have the software installed on the root directory so like C:\ross-tech\ or whatever. I dont remember where i read that though. If you have a autofirewall up it might be blocking com ports, what windows r u running? my brother's vista laptop, has some security software from ibm, that blocks usage of non common used coms and usb's. You should check that out if you got vista. hope it helps. |

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
Hello all, for the guy that likes to keep his fluids low - i think that you can actually turn off the windshield washer fluid low indicator in VAG.com.
Here is another one that my audi does - if you turn the mirror control around so the line is facing to the back of the car, the mirrors fold in on their own. The sunroof can also be closed manually if necessary by holding the switch down (oposite of the way that you would tilt it...) comes in handy for me cause my auto close doesnt work for some reason. |

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
What a great thread, I just came across it for the first time, thanks 1move.
Here is another item for the A4. There is a little switch in the drivers door that disables the motion sensor part of the alarm. So if you go on a ferry and the crossing is rough, your alarm may come on. By disabling it, that won't happen. |

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
OK - I tried the throttle body trick on my 2.7T
I'd like to hear if anyone else has tried this on a 2.7t? I "think" it did improve the responsiveness of the acceleration - especially when slowing down and then suddenly stepping on it. - but I need more convincing adn will try this again in a few months. |

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi

i think that's the best one. |

In what module do you suggest he does that? FYI the B5's dont have Module 46, according to ross tech which is the Central Conveniance, where I am guessing you want him to put in 16200 right?
the code works on both 35 and 46 |
Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
Running 15981 in Address 35 on B5 A4, B5 S4 and C5 A6. What do you like about 16200 ?

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
16200 makes no sence!
15215 is the total sum of the numbers stated above. Minus 512 as you already have the dual blink =14703 right? Plus the additional bits that are not disclosed and serve a function thought 14703+16+128+1024=15871 So I really have no Idea where 15981 came from? As it is in excess of 110 bits and this makes no sence?? same as 16200. Binary count as you are aware counts in doubling the number before 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128...etc. and Audi has used full binary numbers for each function so there is no in between. |
Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
15981 came from the fact that our Audi's shipped from the factory with 15917 and I added +64 to get the Comfort Closing via Remote Control = 15981
Obviously some of the missing increments of 16, 128, 1024 are included in Audi's calculation but not explained in the Ross Tech list... anyone know what they do ? |

Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
my comment? yes, get used to it, it will be with you all your live.
the vag-com got nothing to do with Audi. i think there are still some bugs in it, you just have to work around or with it. what's that american saying? "works on paper" same thing with my comment. |
Re: Tips and tricks......for your audi
well yeah if you can help me i gues let me know when . thanks
