I suspect the Audi mod would just have more effect on the person in the driver seat :roflmao:
Skoda: Polite and civil, courteous to other drivers.
VW: Angry and wanting to race everyone but then sulk when they lose.
Seat: Combination of the two above.
Audi: MUST DRIVE AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO CAR IN FRONT OTHERWISE THE WORLD WILL END!!!
I nearly bought a Skoda and would have one now if not for Skoda themselves! So think I’m an imposter.

You missed the driving through red lights for Audi drivers BTW ;)

Well that goes in hand with the bumper to bumper thing - it just could let the car in front have any distance ahead of it, even if that means going through a red light.

...I kinda like to upset Audi's and BMW's on the Cupra... Specially those "in your bumper" drivers

I make it a daily goal to make their life hell if I see them not indicating or tailgating other drivers...

It would have gotten me into a fight, but one time I was following one of those "no-indicator-fitted" Audi drivers around town and having to guess where he would turn, sometimes swerving into a lane where I already was...
Anyway, we stopped at some lights to turn in a T-junction and sure enough he was not indicating. His window was down and I considered to get out of the car, slowly walk there, push the stalk for the blinker, smile, say "have a nice day!" and walk back to my car :)

don't forget they (audi driver) all 'YPLAC' too..

perhaps the Audi setting also disables the park assist....

Bloody hate Audi drivers. Even when they’re not driving into the back of my wife, their constant tail gating, playing with their phones, driving through red lights, parking too close and generally driving like knobs.

It’s the fact I really like some of their cars, but can never own one due being tarred with the same brush and being seen as an Audi driving ****.

I don't know about that, but there is a "Audi mod" I previously done to my Skoda Octavia and now did to the Cupra and both felt faster after.
I am about to sleep right now, so this will need to wait for tomorrow, but in the engine config there is some long coding - the car brand can be set to either VW/Skoda/Seat or then to Audi.
It DOES feel different when set to Audi ;)

Do you have instructions for OBD11?

Based on the Video posted early (don't have my car with me so cant check it).

Select Control Unit 01 - Engine
Select Long Coding
Select 1 (so you are in long coding not short cut's)
By default you should be in Byte 0 Select Bit 0 - 2 (its all one section from memory) and select Audi from the dropdown menu.
Tick the old green tick and you are done.

Let us know if it works and if it makes any difference

But you didn't.

Do you drive an Audi Ben? Have a strong feeling that if you don’t, that you really should...
I'm too worried that someone might think about turning my indicator on then tell people on a forum that they didn't.

Change of subject you may notice under you member name is your country flag, this can be turned off in you settings but it helps people with coding and new car details knowing where you live.

Correction which country you live in

Every time I see your name the flag seems to have changed somewhere else...you were a Brazilian earlier, now a Costa Rican...
