3 flash overtaking mod

Post by installer69 » Fri Aug 25, 2006 6:50 pm

I apologise if someone has already mentioned this but the one thing I missed when I rejected the S4 and got the RS6 was the 3 flash indicator thing whereby you can tap the indicator stalk and the indicators flash 3 times for motorway overtaking without the need to cancel them manually.

Well, those crazy americans have a module for the cars without it. https://www.euro-parts.us/product.php?p ... 1&featured expensive though. Anyone know if the Germans have one on the go (or has anyone knocked up a homebrew?)

Coming from a 2003 S4 and a 2002 A4 before that I am fnding the lack of the one touch 3 flash system a bit of a pain in the A. I'm a real stickler for indicators and get wound up when people don't use them. Having had this system as standard before, on the motorway especially, without the one touch system it does make indicating very tiring and frustrating!

I would be very interested in this mod and wonder if anyone has used this particular unit?

Also, what would the fitting requirements be?

I just touch my indicator stalk now and just give it one flash when changing lanes. Probably not the best thing, but I can be bothered anymore with putting the stalk on for long. I am ready for a 3 flash system. First time I had it was in an A3 2.0TDI courtesy car. I flicked from left to right to left to right trying to get the car to stop flashing, I just couldnt figure out why the indicators wouldnt turn off LMAO!! I felt like a tit when I clicked!
