Purpose: to lower the air suspension for a lowered style.

Select“Auto” mode via the MMI (it must not be set to Dynamic, Comfort, etc.). Make sure the car is on level ground. Close the doors. If the doors open during this operation, the procedure will be interrupted. Make sure the car is not in towing or tire-change mode. Eventually set the car to“Neutral” and release the handbrake (remember, you’re supposed to be on level ground, so your A6/S6, A7/S7 C7/4G, A8 D4 won’t move).

Procedure:
1 – Engine off, ignition off, connect your official VAG-COM VCDS cable to the computer, then plug the other end into your vehicle’s diagnostics socket.

2 – Switch on the ignition, then run the VCDS program.

Line 1:

3 – Click on ” Select”, then click on ” Select ” and run the VCDS program. 34 – Level Control” .

4 – Click on“Security Access – 16” then enter the code“20103”.

5 – Click on“Adaptation – 10”, take note of the 4 values entitled as :

“Body height, stops front wheel shell G”.

“Body height, rear wheel shell G”stop

“Body height, stops front wheel shell D”.

“Body height, rear wheel shell stop D”.

6 – Take the values you noted above, and add the desired dimensions in millimetres (mm) to each value, noting them down carefully on a sheet of paper…

Example of a 15mm front and 11mm rear lowering:

• Front left: 392.80 -> 407.80
• Front right: 388.40 -> 403.40
• Left rear: 391.30 -> 402.30
• Right rear: 385.60 -> 396.60

Be aware that Audi has a lowering tolerance of 17mm at the front and 13 at the rear, from what I understand. You can go lower if you like, but if you lower it a bit more, it will affect other parts of the system, such as the cameras, adaptive speed, etc., so be careful.

7 – Press “RETURN” Then go to“04 – Basic settings”

IMPORTANT: Whatever you do, do not select“Reset all adaptations”, as this will not work, and will require a visit to the dealer.

8 – Select“Activate trim”, click“Go!”, wait for it to finish (should only take a second or 2, until it says “Not active”) and then press “Stop”.

9 – Select“Erase trim calibration”, click on“Go!”, wait for it to finish, you’ll see an error message in the central display (ODB) of your meters indicating “Air Suspension Dysfunction ” with its little yellow car logo (drawings) with a two-way arrow in the center of the car (drawing), don’t worry this is normal, you’ll see in the VCDS writing “Not active” and then press “Stop”.

10 – Select“Approach reference level“, click on“Go! This step will take about a minute, and your car will rise and fall during the process (you’ll hear whistling). Wait until it finishes, until it says “Not active” and then press ” Stop “, then ” End, Back “.

11 – Go to“10 – Adaptation” on the previous screen.

12 – Next, you’ll need to enter the new values you’ve defined with the help of step 4 on your documents for the different heights.

“Body height, stops front wheel shell G”.

“Body height, rear wheel shell G”stop

“Body height, stops front wheel shell D”.

“Body height, rear wheel shell stop D”.

Select them, one after the other, to enter the new value you’ve determined, and click on“Save”, then repeat the operation for the other three wheel heights.

Each time you enter a value, you should get a message indicating that it has been accepted.

13 – When you have completed the changes for all 4 wheels, select“Back”, and return to“04 – Basic settings” again.

14 – In the basic settings, select“Calibrate trim” and press“Go! Wait for “Not active”) and then press ” Stop “.

If you get an error in this step, either you’ve missed a step described above, or something has gone wrong.

15 – Select“Activate trim”, click on“Go!”, wait a few seconds until it says “Not active” and then press “Stop”, then “End, Return”.

16 – When you’ve finished, go to“02 – Fault codes” and clear the error codes.

Get out of the car and watch, wait a moment, and she’ll lower herself as you wished!

If you’d like to make another adaptation, forget all about the changes you’ve made previously, as they don‘t add to the previous ones, and cancel them out completely.

For example, you lowered the first time by 5mm on the value 392.80, refer to step 2 of this tutorial and repeat the various steps.

This brings your total to 397.80. You want a total reduction of 15mm. You’ll then enter 407.80 the second time, and lower it by a further 10mm on the second modification, bringing you to a total of 5+10=15mm.
I remind you that a “visible” and yet fairly safe lowering value is 17mm at the front and 13mm at the rear, at most. We strongly advise against going any lower.

Purpose: To modify and/or customize the home screen logo (Custom Splash Screen) with a personalized image of the MMI 3G and 3GPLUS.

Start by downloading the script file: MMI_3G_3GP_SplashScreen_VAG-Coding.en.zip

Proceed :

• Then extract the file you just downloaded: MMI 3G 3GP SplashScreen VAG-Coding.en.zip
• Go to the “splashscreens” folder and edit the “startup_generic.png” image if you wish. You can edit this image, modify it or import another image, to have your own startup logo (keep the same PNG format and image size 800×480) or an image found in the “samples” folder (copy it into the “splashscreens” folder with the name startup_generic.png.
• Copy the contents of the MMI_3G_3GP_SplashScreen folder to a FAT32-formatted SD card (max. 32GB).
• Start your AUDI and let the MMI boot up, it takes a few seconds.
• Disconnect your smartphone’s Bluetooth if there’s a link between it and the MMI, and remove all your SD cards (SD1 & SD2)…
• Then insert the SD card you have prepared into slot SD1.
• You’ll see green text asking you to turn the large knob on your MMI central console, and the message will disappear.
• Wait a few moments. A new message will appear stating that all has gone well and that your image has been imported successfully.
• Restart the MMI using the button combination that corresponds to your AUDI.
  Example: Press SETUP or MENU (1) + Central knob (2) + Top right button (3) at the same time.

If your new start-up screen does not appear when your MMI reboots, go to the green hidden menu (to activate the hidden menu, follow the “Activate MMI 3G or 3GP hidden menu” tutorial).

For MMI 3GP : Select in car -> carcodingvehicle -> Select n° screen -> set cursor to 0, then restart your MMI.

For MMI 3G: car -> carcodingvehicle -> configuration line -> [standard] 2/5 (Standard home screen) then restart your MMI.

Your very own Splash Screen will appear!
Many images are available in the zip file… both the original and modified ones.

A problem? If the script doesn’t run the first time, try again. You’ve only copied the contents of the MMI_3G_3GP_SplashScreen folder? Do not copy the folder, just its contents!
For MMI 3G Basic: If your image does not appear or is truncated, resize the image to 400 by 240.

Battery

The vehicle’s battery is housed in the engine compartment and protected by a battery tray. Battery size and design depend on engine version, equipment and national variant. Standard, EFB and AGM batteries are used.
Vehicles with petrol engines and start/stop systems are fitted with EFB batteries, while vehicles with diesel engines and start/stop systems are fitted with AGM batteries. Vehicles with stationary chauffage generally have an AGM battery.

EFB

An EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery) is a reinforced wet battery. The positive plate inside the battery is coated with an additional polyester canvas. This gives the battery’s active mass additional support on the plate. The alternating cycle resistance of these batteries is superior to that of standard batteries. During charging, the EFB battery is treated like a standard battery.

AGM battery

In AGM batteries (short for Absorbent Glass Mat), the battery’s electrolyte is retained in a micro-porous glass mat. An AGM battery is not only even more resistant to alternating cycles than an EFB battery, but also watertight. When charging, follow the charger’s operating instructions and select the AGM battery program if necessary.

In the case of AGM batteries, the automotive battery electrolyte is retained in a micro-porous glass mat. In addition to
increased resistance to alternating cycles, an AGM battery is characterized by its good sealing properties. Waterproofing is of crucial importance
, especially when the battery is installed in
the passenger compartment. When charging, please follow the charger’s operating instructions and select the program for
AGM battery, if applicable.

Below we see the battery brand, serial number and manufacturer.
