I will have my VCDS with me. Just need someone who can operate it properly.
Slightly OT, but check out the following site:

http://www.wak-tt.com/vagcom/vagcomclcoding.htm

There is a little program called BaseCode, and it helps give you the correct code to enter into VCDS. The options are additive which may be why you're losing your previous settings.

Hi
This was the procedure I was following. When I changed the code I lost all previous codings and only had the one I had put in?

Provisional on my red car being ready.
It's in the workshop next door getting a new boot lid, bodywork fettling, paint, a 1-day polish (the type that cost a fortune and removes the scratches/swirls and stuff), the seats swapped, exhaust swapped, trim swapped and other little tweaks.
I've been told it should be ready by Friday but you know how these things work out with garages. If they find something better to do then your car gets delayed.
But here's hoping!
Despite being on to my 9th Audi since the early 1990's, I've never been to an Audi show so looking forward to it.

Excellent - hope you get to come along - looks like it's going to be a great show and it will be good to see the red D2 on the stand!
Fingers crossed!!

I would have loved to have come along to this meet but am just slightly further up the road at the Rugby Premiership Final. Typical.

Anyway, hope the sun shines for you all.

That'll be a NEAT row, of course, nobody out of line or different distances apart.

I'm gutted that I couldn't go and had to change at the 11th hour due to not having my car back.
I think my car would have looked great at the end of that line-up.

I'm still swapping bits and putting the car back together yesterday, today and tomorrow. But she's coming on well after having a bit of work done at the back (including a new boot / part respray)...





I think AITP will be my first venture out to a meeting unless I arrive unannounced in Northumberland at the annual meet as a day guest.

Poor big5T. I think he is missing his big Tomato.
