Audi Q3 Engine Start Stop Module Hack

Thank you very much for the video.
Would you happen to know if the A1 (2012) has the same wire coding as your Audi Q3 ?
Thank you

Couldn't you just jam the button on by using a bit of card.?

Thanks so much for your sharing.
Would you please let me know where can I get it ?

will try this on my 2020 Q3. Thanks!

I have a 2009 with no power, the key fob isn’t recognized and the hazards switch doesn’t work either. Also the high beams switch has no power any ideas would be helpful

Amazing stuff. I'm assuming that when the car is serviced, the Audi mechanic will NOT be able to detect the change? My car is under warranty (it's a 2020 Q3), and Audi has told me that the warranty will be voided if the auto start/stop is disconnected.

Software metod is wrong but cutting fabric wires is good???! Yeaah very smart...

won't be buying Audi again until they get rid of this piece of crap feature, so that they can claim the car is fuel efficient on the test drive data.

Question i just actually got one also. For your GPS did you have to buy a CD or a SD card

So to remove the climate control unit you just wedged a flat trim removal tool in the left side and pushed the tool outwards to get the control unit to pop out? Or did you hook the back of the unit and pull it out? Were there any hidden clips or it just popped out with no problem? How far did you put the tool in because mine won't move at all. :(

I do exactly the same with that button on my Q5, such an annoying system once you’ve come to a halt at a junction. It’s slow to respond when accelerating away.

Hi. I have the same vehicle as you. 2016 RSQ3. Have searched your link on EBay. Nil stock. Can you please let me know when available.

Thank you!

thanks!!! I can only disassemble the panel after watching this video. I bought a device that plays this role perfectly on AliExpress. Plug and play!

you can probably fix that issue with obdeleven dongle

Lol... Ok

Am i missing something ?. You need a hack to just press the stop /start button when you get in the vehicle

What a complete tool just press the button it’s not hard

Amazing. Thank you.

Thank you for putting this up, SS is driving me insane

This is cool. Does it work on any car?
