Products WE want!

awsome cause i need to install a guage to moniter the oil press. thank you

ok so i got the gauge mounted and the wiring fed just need to know if the press. sender from autometer will fit in the saftey switch location. i am about to start removing stuff to get at it.

^I’m actually working on the same thing. The autometer sender is huge which is the issue i’m hoping I don’t run into. Might just have to get a right angle adapter. Sucks finding things in 10mm.

How are you installing the 1/4" threads into the 10mm stock opening?

Ok so my first attempt was a fail cause my sensor has a single wire. Did a two into one with the wire and well it doesnt work . So now my neighbor has a elbow fitting from his tt that we will try. Its from 42dd and we will install that to the housing and then add a line to it to make installing the autometer sensor a breeze. Then run a 5volt constant to the original single wire. So no light and a working gauge.

Take a pic of the whole setup when you’re done. Did you confirm that the autometer won’t fit?

^Would you two mind starting a thread in the S4 section? This could be very helpful for a lot of people, but I doubt many will find it in here.

yes it just a hair to long. And looks to bee more headace then I want right now

Ok once I get to mylaptop I will.

Joe if you get that 42dd adapter the grab a elbow ana few extenders and tada it works. If you grab a female tee you can install the stock press sensor in also.

I saw this thread on AZ about a rather cool little module that expands the functionality of the DIS: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/477811-The-VFIZ-computer-on-Audi-B6-B7

The AZ mods shut it down so they can fleece him for money. But the product looks pretty cool as demonstrated in the guy’s video: http://youtu.be/-jSwfiJEigA

Anyway, I have no idea who this guy is but I sent him a PM to come on over here and tell us more about it… unless anyone else has seen it before?

that’s cool

looks like an A3 to me

Holy shit, that’s awesome. B6/7 can finally get oil temp in DIS and a ton more of other things!

It is $500 bucks though, but it’s all plug and play so that’s a very clean setup compared to most of that nature.

It is 500$ + shipping 30$,
From the guy who makes them:
There are cables to connecting to tacho and additional USB cable for future firmware upgrade,
VFIZ fits behind console under tacho, it connected plug&play between tachometer and factory car cabling, no cables modify is needed,
It is upgradable via USB cable, ( Currenty I’m working on in car diagnostic, e.g. DTC reading (and clearing))
VFIZ has many additinal featers, e.g. beeping and displaying alarms on FIS when some parametres exceeds limits - which you configure of coz (e.g. oiltemp, coolant temp, boost etc…)

Also:
The VFIZ will not interfere with FISCON, even if would happen some issue in future
it can be easy and fast fixed by firmware upgrade which is self written and can be easly modified.
The VFIZ is controlled by MFSW and can be enabled or disabled at any time,
you will not lose RDS information from radio and navigation tips.

I have been waiting for these guys to release the B7 version: http://www.p3cars.com but they have been saying they are releasing something for over a year with nothing. Not only that, but I like the idea of having integration with the MFD or DIS instead of having something stuffed in a vent that doesn’t belong there.

This thing has a lot of bells and whistles for 500 bucks. And considering it is MPC with software updates, there’s a lot more than can be done with it. I’m hoping that the software is open source as I know a tiny bit about software myself and would love to be able to customize it.

I’m on it and will post a review. There’s a 3 week lead time so it will be a little bit.
