Default Q8 Aftermarket plans
Hi guys,

I wanted to start a thread to potentially get the creative minds going and possibly give others additional ideas on what they may want to do to their Q8s. So what aftermarket plans do you guys have or have for your Q8?

I’d like to lower mine some more, 1016 industries has lowering end links that they say will lower models with the air suspension but I’d like to k ow if anyone else has done it yet? Curious about ride quality, and adjustability through the different modes.

Get the CETE Module. Really cool! Plug and play. Adjustable via the Drive Select & Smartphone.

So this just allows you to lower the factory bags further? Is this reliable? I would also wonder about the factory warranty from Audi

I found this thread if anyone else is interested in this

https://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/724372-Cete-Automotive-(Active-Sound)-Active-Suspension-Control-Module

Also found this showing you can lower it some more with obdeleven, hopefully Not sure what system they are using but looks to be similar

​​​​​​​This looks cool Omni, but clear something up for me. So is this pretty much buying air suspension if you don't have the air suspension package already?

Here are some of the aftermarket plans I'm thinking about eventually making:

1) Change wheels
2) Possibly black out tailights (Inspired by user Donthatemyq8), just looks so stealthy
3) Either wrap or paint when I get tired of the color
4) See what aftermarket exhausts come out for it, just to give it a little more rumble in the exhaust note
5) Interested to see what body kits come out for the Q8

Just some ideas off the top of my head

Negative. This module gives you more adjustability of your OEM air suspension. It’s cool because it allows you through your smartphone the ability to dial in the suspension to exactly where you want it. You can even do it on the fly. In my opinion a must if you have if you have Factory air suspension!

* And for the “stance” guys there is even an optional “show mode” to completely air the suspension out.
