Fingerprint Start button retrofit
I can get a whole unit for something like 30 quid so thinking of retrofitting it.
Does anyone know what is EXACTLY ;) required to do the job?? Very much appreciated as always Thank you |
Would I need new or separate control unit, or additional memory?? so car can save the fingerprint somewhere???
|
The fingerprint device is ...... awful. Ask some others here about their experiences with it.

Is it that poo ;) ?? |
Mine is a pain, finger has to be in the right place or no identification,
But the worst it does is not change the radio for me, as the seats and mirrors are done when i unlock |
The fingerprint scan sucks.. honestly.. major suckage. My PF had it, and as I was driving 99% of the time, the failed scans were fine as it's only for memory, but... that error message on at least 1 in 3 starts was annoying, and then for half of the other journeys, wouldn't recognise SWMBO's finger.
Darren has had a pile of issues with his. I'd stick with the normal system and buttons in the door. |
I've worked on various IT security systems, so was amused when Audi loaned me (for many months) a D3 4.0TDi a while back that was almost "fully loaded" including fingerprint recognition.
I decided to play with it, but lost interest pretty quickly as it just wasn't reliable enough. Made sure it was all cleared out and turned off before I gave it back. Unless it's improve radically I really wouldn't bother. :tuttut: |
Cheers guys, got the message +++
Thank you very much :cheers: :respekt: |
The fingerprint reader in my D3 is about the only thing I've never had a problem with (now tempting fate).
When the car has been driven using the key in the ignition by another driver, and all setting altered, I just jump in press the button and go. A/C settings change, Radio changes, my contact list pops up, seats/mirrors and steering wheel adjusts itself. |
Jeez, Apple can't even get it right 10 years later! I turned the 'feature' off on my iPhone 5S a couple of days after buying it.....
