Default Park aid module compatibility?

Hi team,

I have a potentially faulty park aid module, part 8K0 919 475 J. There are apparently many variants of this module, such as:
8K0 919 475 H
8K0 919 475 Q
8K0 919 475 T
8K0 919 475 P
and so forth. I'm wondering which, if any, I can substitute for my current J model without losing any functionality. I found this chart for A4 sensors:

4F0 910 283 - 4 sensors, no graphical support
4F0 910 283 A - 4 sensors, no graphical support
4F0 910 283 B - 4 sensors, graphical support
4F0 910 283 C - 8 sensors, graphical support
4F0 910 283 D - 4 sensors, graphical support
4F0 910 283 E - 8 sensors, graphical support, rear view camera support
4F0 910 283 F - 4 sensors, graphical support, rear view camera support
4F0 910 283 G - 8 sensors, graphical support, rear view camera support
4F0 910 283 H - 8 sensors, graphical support, rear view camera support

but can't find anything similar for the 8K0 919 475 series. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I bought a second hand unit code 8K0 919 475 AA a few weeks ago and will attempt a DIY this weekend, I hope it works, otherwise I’ll have to return it, seller gave me 60 days to return no questions asked.

Did you search on ebay? There are tens of these modules on sale.

I sure did, but I can’t find any J models. Hence the question - I want to know if I can use a different “last letter” model instead!

Thanks!
believe any of the below since they have support for 8 sensors graphical and rear view camera, same as yours (with a question mark on P though both, J and P, are superseded with R version and R to AA).
8k0919475G/J/P/R/AA (given with chronological order)
Never tried 4F ones if compatible.

I have firmware updated my G version to R (exactly same hardware part) then I was told that AA would also work so firmware updated later to AA (though its HW part is different, not sure if I loose a new functionality my old hw does not support). AA is latest.

Good luck.

So
R replaced J.
AA replaced R which replaced J. (your link also shows P which was discussed above).

The end result is the same just wanted to pinpoint that R can also be used and is newer than J, but AA is latest newer than R. One may choose the cheapest another the most expensive which one would you choose if the difference was high?

I’d go for the cheapest used part with a return warranty this is the one I bought:

Last time I purchased a part with a label HW and SW part were different on the box/case.

hope you are more lucky and you got the HW part ending with N (8P0919475N) . That is the original HW part with SW part ending with AA (8k0919475AA) . All previous SW parts (G/J/P/R) have a HW part ending with A (8k0919475A).

if you dont want to remove label you can also check with VCDs.

here is my firmware updated info:

Address 10: Park/Steer Assist (J446) Labels:. 8K0-919-475.clb
Part No SW: 8K0 919 475 AA HW: 8K0 919 475 A
Component: PARKHILFE 8K H06 0082

I have updated mine to AA but has different HW part number than original part.

Default Mission accomplished!

Just installed the eBay sourced used part (see pictures) and now my Parking Aid is back! It was literally a 5 minutes job. Weird thing is that I peeled off the silver sticker and it had a completely different part number, but hey, unplugged my unit, plugged in this one and everything went back to normal, $50 well spent!

PS1: There were no signs of moisture or water intrusion.
PS2: The new part seems to be from the VW catalog 5K0919475E, not sure why it had that silver label on top with the Audi part number. According to the seller it came from a totaled A4, maybe that car was fixed at certain point and this VW labeled unit was fitted, who knows



Faulty original part

New (to me) eBay part after peeling the silver label, not the same part number as in the label!

Quick fix, unplugged the old one and plugged in the new one. And....

...Voilà, we are back!
