Has anyone worked on one of these cars yet. I need to do an alarm starter on one and so far the info I have found is spotty at best. If anyone has any type of info at all on the car that would be helpful. Thank You

Don't know anything about this car specifically but I can tell you that we worked on an Audi A8 for something much simpler. Many of the modules are highly sensitive and will lock out if tampered with. Just disconnecting the knee panel will lock out the steering wheel accessory functions and the car will have to reset at a dealership

raven, run away, run far away, the car uses CAN-BUS extensivly, you can't access locks in the car.
DEI has a CAN-BUS Module coming out.

Thanks Shaughn. I new there was something strange about this car. I am patiently awaiting the CAN-BUS modules. Its one of the managers cars anyways so I wasnt gonna make any money on it anyway.

A little birdie told me you got your hands on the prototype for the VW/Audi's. Let me know how it works out. I was told its like 7 wires or 9 wires or something like that to do the entire starter with window and sunroof controls and the whole 9 yards. Sounds like a pretty useful little box
