Option is still there for facelift cars and you will get this:

That's not the same knob as in the OP's pic.

Does anybody know the indicative cost to replace the heated round steering wheel with a FBSW?

Audi need to sort out the heated steering wheel issue, you loose so much by ticking the option. Just noticed the assignable steering wheel button gets replaced.

Wow, that pice will be be why the dealer adamantly refused to change the wheel and knob as part of any deal. :roll:

A big shame because the rest of the car's spec was excellent.

I certainly wouldn't let a steering wheel get in the way of a car, if that's the 'one' for you.

You'd need to check part number but for example I think this one is correct?

Then you just need the correct airbag and get it fitted/coded which is not hard to do, just takes a little time to source the parts and then get it all done. A more convenient option could potentially be Hazydays, they may be able to sort it all out including buying the parts for you?

Yeah I go for the car, have warm hands over the winter then sort it out next year once you've found one for the right price etc.

I ordered a heated wheel on mine - flat bottom really makes such a difference, really? Maybe I am getting old.

Anyhow we all like different stuff so all good.

On both my Astons and the Porsche (all nearly new) I got a new steering wheel thrown in. An Audi wheel cannot be near the cost so amazing they won't just change it for you.
