2006 Build S8 Auto Transmission Paddle Shift Not Working Whilst in 'D'
Hi everyone,
I recently became the very prod owner of a great condition 2006 build S8, the car was originally sold in Japan & then imported into New Zealand (where I purchased it), I have over time de-Japanesed it, fitted the OEM Ociana NAV system, OEM BT Telephone module & a 3rd party BT audio streamer & run all three update discs.
The car has ceramic brakes, the B&O sound system, solar roof, electric boot lid to name but a few of the many options this car has. During the many hours completing all the work it appears the ability to shift via the steering wheel paddles while the shifter is 'D' has stopped working, I'm 99% sure it used to do it, if I slide the shifter into manual mode the steering wheel paddles work just fine.
I looked up a number of long threads throughout this forum however my gearbox code is JLM, whereas all the refrences I've seen thus far refer to a gearbox code of 09J (or something similar), I've tried all the different codings, none seem to work ie: they're rejected when I try to enter them. I've attached the VAG screen of my Auto-trans, any feedback/advice would be greatly appreciated!
