Excellent. Will save putting a 1000 miles on it.
Plus the saving on petrol will probably be just about enough to get the first round in when you arrive...

Exactly guys! Plus it cuts out more of the boring roads on the way there. Can't wait wait for the tunnels.

Haha just about yes. £20 a beer down at Rascasse

Sounds like a slip ring problem if the horn isn't working.

Hmm brilliant! Bought it from a lovely guy on here called Peter who was breaking his RS6 C5. Said it came off perfectly fine and was in working order

Maybe it's the wiring to the slip ring. Did you follow the instructions in the other topic? I'm sure Pete wouldn't sell you a duff knowingly.

Maybe it is. I bought all the correct wiring, unless I'm missing something. Yeah all instructions followed. No he definitely wouldn't, I believe that. He said it was on the car working and it came off perfectly fine.

Everything fine, and then it wouldn't code once he got to that part of the process

Pretty sure the horn is a direct electrical connection so shouldn't have anything to do with a coding problem.

I can't check the electrical diagrams for you because my Elsawin has missing files, apparently. Sigh.

Anyone got an install I can download?
