Default RNS-D Removal
I want to get to the back of the RNS-D unit. Are these the keys that are required?

£4 for 4. How far can you drive in an A8 for that money.

Unless you're desperate I'd buy them off eBay and let the postman bring them to you.

Be careful which ones you buy. I bought a set from Halfrauds and they were useless. I ended up getting a proper set from the Snap On guy.

I've got Audi genuine set of 4 and it works tip top with RNS-D and RNS-E.

The part number is 8E0 051 530.

If you're careful, you should be able to manage with 2 keys, but it does involve a bit of shuffling.

Daft Q though... Are you using them the right way round?

That may have been my problem then Neil .. Though if you do put them in 'upside down' as it were, then they don't work.
