Default B9.5 Q5 OBDEleven

Did some searching but couldn't find something so apologies in advance if I missed an existing thread.
Curious about the OBDEleven module and what apps or other features can be adjusted on our 2022 Q5.

Thanks!

Skip OBDEleven. They raised the annual pro subscription by almost double and they stopped giving out free credits. You’re better off going with VCDS from Ross-Tech.

Edit: actually I take that back. It looks like the Pro subscription is still only $50/year and does just about everything that the Ultimate subscription does. But they still removed the free credits so you have to buy them if you want to use the 1-click apps. The $170/year "Ultimate" gives you unlimited access to the 1-click apps.

Understood, sorry to hear it. Already have one from my A3. Not sure how many credits I have left but I'll be sure to use them sparingly. Lol

Anyone know if these latest cars play nice?

I've had no issues making a few changes on our 2021 Q5e.

Any apps function or did you have to do long coding?

I've used Carista app for several things, works well and has a 30-day trial.

You can still do long coding and your own adaptions. You dont need the shortcuts if you go directly into the modules, btw.

On my 22 SQ5 you have to now have the trunk open to re-code. So cant do it rolling down the highway anymore, easily.

To do long coding and adaptations with OBDEleven you have to buy their "Pro" or "Unlimited" subscription.

No apps. Using the doc from the A5/S5 coding thread, I've only made the VC gear display permanent and added the welcome heartbeat sound. I also coded the Auto Hold button retrofit but didn't use OBDEleven for that, I used the dongle the retrofit kit included.
