I've been buying presents for the 8
Well apart from the 5 tyres I got for dirt cheap I've also replaced the cracked 19" spare for a second hand wheel off the bay, so now I can have a spare in the boot so I don't have to phone recovery if I was to get a puncture
  Got my AK aerial for DAB and telestart  And for the finale I got two BRAND SPANKING NEW!! Seat base covers, for an absolute steel   Slowly getting things ticked off the list, still haven't got the bloody timing chain tensioners done yet though or the gearbox service, but I'm getting through it slowly

 just need to find a passenger seat so I can have a better top half of seat too, it's not bad yet but could be better.Oh and £850ish brand new

That's correct dell, it uses a wireless remote that turns the webasto heater on, it can also be timed to come on at certain times, either by remote or with MMI, my e39 had it and it was a nicely needed function esp on the depths of winter and it also helps reduce cold engine wear, just need to get mine working properly first
this car will not beat me haha!

Thanks for the clarification.
The Range Rover has the same option but only for Diesels. Is it available for petrol A8s too? I'd love to see if anyone has any luck retrofitting it, sounds like a great idea in our weather!

I've briefly looked at it, but looks like a lot of work on any car but can't even find the parts needed to do it on an S8, the most of them you see on ebay came from a diesel or a w12

I've been trying to get retrofit the recirculating pump to my heater and its being a bit of a bitch.
I got a pump from a A8 with the the recirculating pump but you need to get the cable that goes with it. I don't have that. I've contacted Webasto and one of their main dealers near me. Neither of which was very helpful. I've got all the parts, just no cable to power the pump from the heater. I've had the pump out and everything. Audi and Webasto both says talk to the other cause its them. I'm no closer but it would be great if someone can find the parts needed.
