just a reminder guys: if you have a model with NO steering wheels functions
for the stereo; and you fit a new steering wheel with all the stereo
controls on (like ive just done) – you WONT be able to use the controls to
change the stereo ( for eg: volume – change radio station – mute..etc..etc)
– this is becuase there is NO stereo control wire behind the airbag to
link up. I only did this so I could have a sexier looking wheel and the
advantage of the two tones leather. So more of a cosmetic change.
Now Audi might be able to help you with this (ie: providing the needed wire
from the stereo to wheel – but I bet it would cost a few £££££ – especially
from Audi) – so not sure to be honest what to advise.

don’t worry about the airbag going off. The only way it could fire is via
an electrical firing signal from one of the crash sensors fitted into the
front of the car / bumper region. Once you have disconnected the battery;
you’ve killed the sensors

Hi Picanto , My A1 is same as yours and existing only has standard steering
wheel and no Multi-function button , I changed and retrofit the
multi-function button , but the Shifter paddle still not worked finally .
Do you have a same problem ? Thanks ~~

Tom Morgan says:

Hello mate. Thanks so much for this video guide – really good. How much
risk is there of the airbag going off in the process? And what’s the
situation re: keys in the ignition/not etc?

Hi, I’m trying to add the multifunction steering wheel like you. But I have
to change my steering wheel module. What is your module reference ? Does it
work ? Thanks for replying.
