Oh dear, it's not that long since I had the F125 replaced. 
Where do I need to access to bypass it, is it inside the car, engine bay or underneath? and how easy is it?
I'll plug in VCDS sometime to see what that shows, if anything, but I've got other more important things on my plate at the moment (ask Neil!) so the S8 will probably be just parked for a while.
PS I've also still got the old F125 somewhere, I opened it up and took some photos then fitted it together again with some reusable screws/nuts.

Had a quick look but couldn't see anything obvious (to me).
