First time since looking at the car I've been able to have some alone time with the car, a proper dig and VCDS scan time.

I'll do another full scan tomorrow after a little drive.

I'll take a look at the two that came back but it looks like its just connection issues?

Having a look around the boot sides I noticed this cable going down through the rear air vents.





The HPI check came back saying it has a tracker, it could be that.
I need to phone the tracker company to make sure but anyone got any ideas?

The tool kit is looking a little sparse and needs filling up.


I've got what I think is a Audi detachable two bar but I don't know where it is mean to go for storage.
What am I missing?



There is also this connection in the glove box. I've been told that it could be a Dension 500 gateway kit but I'm not sure. Can anyone confirm?


It works fine with the iPod but I'm not sure how the USB or RCS connection works but I'll have more playing about with that later.

There is a couple of little bits I need to pick up over the coming weeks but mainly I need to give it a good clean.
