Last raining season, my rear seats were wet on a heavy rain day. There was some water under the floor board also. Some in the trunk. The Audi A8 D3 sunroof drainage has been a problem with many owners. I did open them up and check the drainage rate and they’re quite slow, hence the […]

Carista OBD2 Bluetooth and Software
Today I’m going to try the new OBD2 Bluetooth Dongle from Carista. It’s quite simple and easy to pair, I use the free trial software which doesn’t have any long coding, although there are quite a few simple programs that’s good. The paying structure is subscription which is good for some and bad for other. […]

G12 & G13 Coolant for Audi Cars
Since I’ve owned Audis, I noticed the color of the coolant is not green but orange. My 2008 Q7 has purple pink color instead of orange as my older ones. These 2 coolant colors are. All Audis before 2008 use G12 (Orange/Red) and after 2008 G13 (Purple/Pink). The main difference between these 2 from the […]

How To Install ElsaWin 5.2 To Windows 8 or Windows 10
08/14/2017 I’ve just realized the A8 D3 wiring diagrams function doesn’t display on ElsaWin 5.2 due to the fact that it assumed we upgraded from the 5.1 and the DATA 5.1 does include these diagrams. In order for the wiring diagram to work, we need to install the DATA of the 5.1 (AUDI03.2014). I tried […]
Ask my wife, she’s used to be a Honda Accord owner likes most people who want reliable cars for safety reasons, now she will not drive anything but Audis, after we got married and I got her first 7 year old A6 Avant. She loved the car for the comfort, the safety (which she can […]

Audi Quattro Principle
We like Audi because of their Quattro system. Since our cabriolet doesn’t have quattro, we can feel the front wheel drive slipping sometimes in the rain due to high torque V6. We’ll never take the cabriolet in the snow or heavy rain trips. We love all our quattro’s.
