My first Q7, great spec but missing a couple of essentials...

[kinell]

Hi everyone,
I just bought a 5 month old Q7 272 in Sepang blue with Tech pack, front memory seats, rear heated seats, black roof rails and a few other options.

The first thing I'm unsure of is whether it's an S-Line with a Black pack or if it's the full Black Edition (or is that the same thing?)
It's supposed to come with the extended LED lighting option but I can't figure out how to change the ambient colours.

I really wish it had come with a rear view camera and the trailer pack, as we have a caravan so I'm looking to get these retro fitted. I think the trailer pack option was £1,300 from Audi but I'm guessing it will cost more to fit now?

How about the rear camera? Has anyone had a genuine one installed?

Many thanks...

Lighting - try MENU button, Vehicle, press left Control Button, select Vehicle Settings, select Interior Lighting. You should get a big menu of defined settings plus a individual setting where you can tweak the colours/brightness of the various lights / strips.
Tech Pack - its awesome particularly the virtual cockpit, HUD and ACC working with the Satan’s data.

SATNAV data - that was a great autocorrect by my iPad!

Not sure the Black Edition was around 5 months ago. I might be mistaken, but we bought ours at the beginning of November and the Black Edition appeared on the configurator a few days later.

The only option I could find was the brightness, no colours for some reason...

Great choice of colour. I too bought a Q7 without the rear view camera and really miss having one. I got a couple of quotes to have a camera professionally fitted and the figures were in the region of £650. Not sure where you are based (I’m in West Yorkshire) but if want the details of a company who can fit one please let me know.

Thanks, I'm in Burnley so not far from you.
I had a quick look online the other day and saw them for around £500 but now unsure whether that includes fitting or not.

First job is to get a towbar fitted, Westfalia one I think...

Where is @andyhud007 based?

I ordered the Westfalia tow bar the other day so will be dropping it off on Tuesday for the install - I went for the dedicated wiring kit so I'm hoping that it matches up with the Audi towing tech...
Still in need of a rear view camera though...
