GENERAL A4 Information
#11
Sorry if this is not the right place, I'm new and don't know where i goes. If someone could help me with a problem, I'd appreciate it.
Just bought a used 2008 A4 2.0 quattro. Did not come with a satillite radio so I found one on line from Europaparts for cheap. from what I read on the web I got an old one with the dual antenna connectors not a single one. My pre wired has only 3 plugs, including the atenna not four. The satellite mopdule has dual antenna outputs which means there are four. From what i read the ones with four are old and the new cars won't recognize it. But Europparts said it would and emailed me instructiuons which involve a 2000 dollar scanning tool and changing CAN BUS connector (???????) They say you have to do this with any module.
My question is, if I buy a newer sat module, that is for the newer car and only has three inputs, will it work after I simply plug it in or will I still have to do all this stuff with the scanning tool. I thought I could simply plug it in and activate it.
Thanlks

Hey holyholley23, did you check the idea of leasing? I personally have leased a car from https://dsrleasing.com/ and I am very satisfied! You will find here amazing deals on many vehicles!
