Audi Stereo Code Retrieval Service

[ainarssems]

I was not saying that you are extortionate, for all I know you could be paying the same money to somebody else and just being helpful passing on information. I am also just sharing my experience. It does look like service suppliers follow each other changing the prices for service on e-bay, couple months back there was several listings under £5. The seller I got my codes from still have some other radio code listings on ebay.co.uk but no Audi code and they are more expensive now. He does have Audi codes listed on ebay.com but are more expensive now at $7.99 (~£5.30 at current exchange rate)

By the way dealers provide code free of charge (they can claim 0.5hrs labour from headquarters for it) but to save time and travel cost to dealer I gave a shot to cheapest listing on e-bay at the time and got working code in 33 minutes. If I had to pay £8.99 I would probably rather go to dealer for piece of mind.

I think this is quite rude, and out of order. Ainarssems has a long history of providing help to the members here. And its this, and politeness, that helps make this a great forum for all of us.

I also considered it a tad rude, so i suppose we shall have to agree to disagree.

I understand what you are saying Nick and I totally agree that Ainars is one of the most helpful members on the forum but I also think lately (in general) there have been many threads where someone has posted that something is for sale or wanted and the thread gets "watered down" with a lot of chat and discussion when it's the one area of a forum where that shouldn't happen. If someone is selling something then if you have a relevant question to ask them about what they are selling then ask, or if unsure if it needs to be a public question then pm them. Otherwise if it provokes a discussion then it does have an effect on their advert or wanted request getting views and someone quickly deciding if they want to contact them or not. This forum has always been super friendly and will I hope always continue to be, so can I just ask all to bear in mind that for sale and wanted ads shouldn't be used as any kind of discussion thread but please DO feel free to post a topic for discussion in the relevant section on other parts of the forum where I hope the usual lively, friendly and useful discussions always do ensue! End of discussion on this for sale thread!!!
