- A how to guide for UPGRADING your steering wheel to the later model sporty Audi R8 or TTRS model for your Audi models including A3, A4, A5, A6, S3, S4, S5, S6 etc
==========
This will fit most older Audi models which run Audi MMI first gen to 3G+ touch systems, and the decoder will enable the newer style steering wheels which run on MIB software to communicate with the legacy car models.
For Example Audi A4/A5 B8, Audi A6/7 C7, Audi A3 8P, Audi A1 8X, Audi Q5 8R, Audi Q3 8U are able to use the steering wheel and the decoder will enable the multi-function button usage.
Please note that the multi-function buttons may differ from model to model, and not all buttons as shown will be usable, only those buttons that are already present on your current steering wheel. Some cars such as the A6/A7 C7's may have added features activated, such as skip track functions and menu selection.

Best guide on YT thanks 👍🏻
Thank you.
Very insightful and thorough, thanks for the tutorial
Thank you.
Epic! great video. TY for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Finally a solid guide, thank you very much. Will be tackling this soon
Thank you very much.
@audimods , do you happen to have the instructions on how to wire up the Lin module adapters to the yellow airbag harness
Good video!
Doesn't it work if I install the original steering wheel after wiring? I'm going to install the original steering wheel in winter because of the heating wire.
You might find the wiring needs to be swapped back too, a lot of work just for winter time.
Can you get the ambrace kit for my 2013 s6? I’m installing an r8 steering wheel
Very likely, contact them via their website.
If I just buy a steering wheel in this design of the small airbag without the additional buttons is it a straight swap to a Audi c6 c7 steering wheel? Will the buttons just work on the new wheel? The forward and backwards and etc
The buttons are not a straight swap.
If it were that simple, I wouldn't have had to purchase the wiring adaptor from Ambrace.
I have a 2016 Audi A5 Quattro, can I change the steering wheel to the R8? Also, can I upgrade the stick shift to make it look like the 2017 and above?
Thanks for your comment. I am not 100% sure, but I assume the answer is yes for the steering wheel, you would be best to contact Ambrace, they are the folks I got my stuff from and will be able to confirm compatibility.
@@audimods thank you, I will let them know. If it's not possible, it's OK since Audi's interior is still amazing.
Can you do this swap on a 2012 Audi q7 4L sline?
Best to contact Ambrace to find what fits your car.
How did you get rid of airbag light going from a 2 igniter to only 1, I've fitted similar steering wheel but now it's saying ignitor resistance too low?
Ideally, you should use a dual stage airbag. The hack solution is to jumper the second stage connector with a resistor - google suggests something around 4.8 ohm 5 watt but may depend on your model of car.
can you install a r8 steering wheel on a B9.5 Q5?
I don't see why not. But a Q5 isn't really a sporty car...
@@audimods i have a 2021 SQ5, bought a R8 4 button steering wheel from China...the drive select button isnt working properly, currently its being checked n fixed in a garage.. where in Oz are u based buddy? 🙏🏻
Can this be done on a 2017 mk7 gti?
I don't see why not. But I dont own a mk7 gti, so I dont know for sure.
Hello were have you bought it
I address this in the video, and link it in the description.
Great video, I am a professional Audi tuning merchant in China, and I think we can do business cooperation in the accessory merchant. We can provide technical support and guidance
Thanks but that's not for me.
'Promo sm' 😴
What do you mean?
Nice steering wheel but way too much time and effort investment for the upgrade. I personally wouldn’t make the effort. Definitely nice wheel though
Fair enough!
U still kept an plastic cheap airbag cover not leather good job :)))))
It's the original Audi one.
@@audimods and? its pathetic and cheap looking. Buy a leather/alcantara one.
