Wait for facelift or not, and what to expect?
First. Not bit faster, but times faster. Second. If you would have followed the whole conversation, you would have noticed that I don`t give a sh*it about today`s ecological madness. What I wanted to point out, was that it could be only a matter of time when next Greta Th could find it out and raise a next ecohell. Third. Comparing prurchase of a charger to a initial issue is like comparing a finger with a d*ck. Not everyone needs to buy a fast charger, but everyone definitely needs to buy a new cable. At least I would have. I have no C to C cabels at home. And I am the Cable Guy. Too many ales in the evening - no good.

Boot mat is still original accessory, if installed at the factory But in the sense of overall conseption, you are right, I woud have expected little bit more. Some integration with onboard entartainment, recordind to car`s HDD, wired commection between PC/phone instead of wifi (super slow probably as they always are). Still, there seem to be one improvement - parking mode incident is triggered not via camera`s lens, but integrated radar.

I suppose if A8 official pricelist includes the mentioned camera, than it`s not quite aftermarket? Estonian site declares it`s an original accessory: https://www.audi.ee/ee/web/et/customer-area/repair-and-service/originaaltarvikud/layer/pardakaamera.html

I bought Samsung cigarette lighter fast charger. Not perfect solution, if you want to use Android Auto at the same time, but still.

All correct, but I have one of these eco terrorists at home and I know what I am talking about. Not that the idea of C type USB is bad, but if any of these ecoists finds out - cannot imagine the mess they can create.

Wipers
AP24U are 600 mm, bit shorter than original, but does the same job.

Wipers
I have been using Bosch Aerotwin Plus wipers, excellent quality. AP26U - 3 cm longer than original, fits perfectly. AP21U - same size as original.

I have better things to do than worry about ecology, but it surprises me that car manufacturers slipped that way. Besides, old cars get fully recycled, but old cables will go probably straight to trash.

Cheap ones are cheap ones. Constant issues with disconnecting. Tryed half a dozen cheap cables , even had USB unit in car changed, until realised, the oroginal and not cheap one is the solution.

When everyone is talking about reducing our ecological footprint, tens, if not hundreds of thousands (if not millions) old Type A - Type C cable owners are forced to buy Typ C - Tye C cables or according adapters.

About to order. Need help!
Renault introduced more than decade ago DPF direct fuel injection. Several different solutions (vapourisers, direct injection) on the market besides the post combustion method.

To be clear, DPF has it`s own fuel injection. Not injector literally, but vapouriser. Satisfied?

During active regeneration, raw fuel is injected into the diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) to achieve appropriate regeneration temperatures in the DPF. Internet.

There is active regeneration and passive regeneration. Passive is, when you usually drive long distance and exhaust gets the tempeature from the process itself. Active is, when the soot level in DPF reaches critical mass and exhaust temeperature is not high enough, independent burning process starts. If regeneration is interrupted, it will continue on your next trip. And then next, until DPF is cleaned. I have 8 km to my work. Sometimes it takes 3 days and trips to work and back until regeneration is done. I have ELM327 OBD dongle and VAG DPF app installed and from time to time I just follow the thing.

To be clear, DPF has it`s own fuel injector and regeneration process does not depend on engine`s temperature. But doing this low mileage - petrol all the way. Quieter. Warmer at start, if you don`t have additional ceramic heater on board.

zackdaman has done it. I believe it can be done in module 5F Instruments electrical. There are several options there under adaptatio to change welcome screen, dials etc. Cannot remember exact combination. Hasn`t done it myself yet.

Torx Screw - ?!?!
Seats are fixed with torx screws, probably also something else.

Virtual pedal stopped working
See, if the Blind Spot Monitor is still enabled. They probably forgot to connect the car to the computer at the dealership after solving your issue. Nowadays the cars are like virgin ladies. Cannot touch too much. Every time for example you disconnect the battery you have to recode the ECU. Some features might not work because of this and they just need to be resetted.
