obdeleven
 

fired it up today for the first time in few months. was looking to turn on the scandinavian drl's for my rear tail lights since I just had the clear blackline version installed. noticed that there are a lot more apps in the S5 section. even one for turning off the amber indicators which makes no sense since in the US they remain amber anyway. also added the RS5 g meter to the display as an option. it does display but doesnt do anything. I doubt that the S5 has a g meter in it but in case it does is there a way to turn it on? very pleasantly surprised that they added so many apps. even have the gear display available in drive or in sport mode now and it works.

I made the same change manually a while ago and got the same result. There was a post from someone saying that the S4/S5 don't have the accelerometer hardware.

At night you don't see any amber in your headlights, I like the clean look. Agreed, that in daytime it doesn't really matter.

There are g-meter apps for your phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...rfree&hl=en_US

Sure, but my goal with these coding changes is often "what cool stuff can I add to my car?" and not "how can I solve this problem?" :). Enabling a g-meter is very much in the former category for me.

Makes sense for people like me who swap with e-codes (easier than using long code in VAG-COM/VCP to disable amber indicators) or who tint/blackout the orange reflector

Since I will be receiving my OBDeleven soon, what are some of the most popular changes (that work) people are making on their A5 S5 vehicles?

Just offering a solution since your car doesn't have the hardware.

There are so many threads already discussing this, go to the A4 B9 forum - it has a lengthy thread on all the changes available.

Definitely check out the other threads, but these are my adjustments, and likely the most popular ones overall:
