HI,

I had a towbar fitted recently to my 2008 A8 by an independant. I'm more than hapy with the install and had the audi / westfalia detachable fitted with 13 pin electrics on a universal kit.

The problem i have is that the reverse sensors bleep when i go into reverse or move off at slow speed. I was advised that the dealer would be able to reprogram for £50-100 but the dealer I went to said it couldn't be done as it wasn't an audi plug in kit.

Is there a way around this short of pressing the mute button every time i stop? or does anyone know of a dealer that has solved this in the past?

Thanks in advance!

It can only be done if it is an oem spec kit. What did you have fitted.

Hi, It was a standard "non OEM" bypass relay. I guess i will have to keep pressing buttons! Thanks for the reply
