I'm not sure that the verbose version of the error codes is in the ECU. Many of them only generate an error code to the OBD port, and leave the device reading the port to figure out the verbose versions. In order to save memory. Despite what Bill Gates said back around '82: "Hardware is cheap." (Some of us disagreed with that at the time.(G)
Don't really care of the verbose. Just the extra 004 or 014 to define the error code 0078 for example. It seems that there is more information that is available and not shown.
In this case though, all the sub-messages come down to the old three stooges line: "I can't find my head! I can't find my head!"
Substitute "the ABS sensor" for "head", and that's what the error messages all seem to say. Different reasons, but same fault. An ABS/direction sender on one wheel isn't communicating with the EDU, it would seem.
Redd, thanks for your support.
AlouxL, I just replied to you by email as well. We currently don't have the ability to differentiate between those sub-codes, but we may implement it in the future. Until now, we hadn't really seen an important use case where the sub-code actually matters too much. But this seems like a legitimate reason, so we'll add this to our list of things to investigate and implement. Thanks for pointing it out.
Hi guys, just wanted to let you know that we have a Black Friday / Cyber Monday deal on the Carista OBD2 adapter - get 25% off today through Monday! https://goo.gl/Y0CklK
Is there the ability to increase the DRL intensity for when the headlights are on yet?
Yes, but only in our beta version. If you're interested in trying it out, pls email support@caristaapp.com and specify whether you use Android or iOS, and if it's Android, specify the Google account that you use in Google Play Store. Thanks.
I'm having some issues with the App. I turned off auto side fold mirrors during winter. I'm trying to turn it back on now, and it's not working. I've set the mirrors to auto fold in the app, and even though it shows that the mirrors should auto fold they don't auto fold. Any suggestions? I have tried turning it on and off, and it just seems like the auto fold setting is not working.

There are 3 separate settings for that on the Q5, so make sure all 3 are enabled in Carista. Also, check your MMI for a menu item related to those - it's possible for such an item to show up after you enable the settings in Carista. The settings in Carista are:
Auto fold side-view mirrors (req. power folding mirrors)
Auto fold driver's side-view mirror (req. power folding mirrors)
Auto fold passenger's side-view mirror (req. power folding mirrors)
I enabled all of those and still no luck. I even went into the hidden menu and enabled "Mirrors". I'm supposed to turn on auto fold in the "Central Locking" setting, but my "Central Locking" setting is greyed out and says that "the selected system is currently not available". Any ideas?
If nothing in the Audi controls enables the mirrors?
WTF, you've got a warranty, let them run a diagnostic on it. It just COULD be there's something broke. Even if you just stop by service and ask them "Am I forgetting something?" they can take a quick look on the spot and schedule the service if they can't find a menu setting that fixes it.
