    Good video, clear and concise! Question, if replacing a deployed airbag, looks striaghtforward to put a new(or used) airbag in....but of course, the module needs to be either replaced as well, or reprogrammed....do you have a video on that? Can a used, undeployed airbag be fitted?(provided of course, it has the same options, and is the correct fit)? How big of a task to ge the control module sorted?
    Thanks

    Is this the same procedure for an audi a3 8p dual stage airbag and disconnecting the negative battery terminal? do you also need to keep the ignition switch on while doing this all the way through or do you need to turn off and take the key out once battery disconnected? i have a flat bottom steering wheel that i want to fit just want to be certain

      Hey there! Unfortunately we are not covering the A3 platform just yet. We are hoping to be able to expand Total Technik to cover additional models, but it's not a cheap undertaking and our expansion will be solely reliant on the support we receive from our viewers.
      Hopefully we can cover that model in the not-too-distant future!

    Hey! i got a question, i got an audi a4 airbag with the steeringwheel that has buttons so it have the same as this one you are showing, but i wana change it out and i got one steeringwheel that is without the extra cable and no buttons for the audio and so on, can i just switch the cables from the airbag or that could make an error or fault in the future ?

      Physically you can change it over to any other A4 wheel that takes your existing airbag with no issues.

      Not sure on replacing the airbag cover. That's not something I'd normally consider doing as it has safety implications. Hopefully the new one will come with installation instructions :-)

    Hi buddy,I wanted to ask you if you can help me with this problem, I have an Audi A3 8P from 2003 with a three-spoke steering wheel without radio controls, and I would like to mount a steering wheel with radio controls, they told me I can do it and I have to change the antagonist ring too , but I have to pay attention to the type of airbag I am going to mount because my airbag control unit supports only those single-stage, right?.
    I looked behind my airbag is in fact there is only one connection
    If I want to mount a steering wheel like this you showed in the video, should I also replace the airbag control unit? because otherwise I would have errors on the dashboard with light coming on and malfunction of the airbag in case of emergency right?, in practice then only a charge would work ?, thanks for the reply and help , best regards .

    • @TotalTechnik
      @TotalTechnik  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey there! We're not covering the A3 platform yet, but hope to in the future if we get enough support from our viewers.
      Be very wary of changing from single stage to dual stage airbags. This exact scenario is also on the A4/S4 models between B6 and B7. There are a couple of options to wire them up, but no proof that they actually discharge correctly in the case of an accident. If you search around online you may find the images of an Audi A4 B6 owners car who upgraded the steering wheel to a B7 one and had a bang. The airbag did not deploy, and it was a considerable knock!
      As it's safety related, stick to factory just in case and be secure knowing it will deploy should the worst happen,

    So after my swap(I watched all of the videos to do a wiper stalk swap)
    And at the same time swapped my base model multifunction wheel for the sport 3 spoke(much like the one on this car) and am now getting an Airbag light.
    The car is an 07 B7 and I believe the steering wheel/airbag is from a b7 as well.
    From my recollection it had the dual plugs on the backside of the airbag indicating dual stage.
    Any idea why I have the light? Or how to fix this? Everything else works properly.

    If you replace the airbag (and wheel) but not the actual airbag module, is it necessary to program the new airbag via VCDS? I'm looking to put a nicer and different color wheel & airbag on my car, same exact style as the old one. Old airbag has never deployed or anything. Just a straight swap.

    Hello! I've got an Audi a3 8p 2007 with 4 spoke steering wheel, looks like that one in your video but it has 4 spokes. Is it the same procedure to remove the airbag as you showed here? And also I'm planning to install 3 spoke steering wheel from A3 2010, will it fit to my car?

    • @TotalTechnik
      @TotalTechnik  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey there! Yes, the process for airbag removal is the same for the majority of Audi and VW models so this should be more than enough to guide you through!
      Changing the steering wheel itself is generally not an issue, provided the original airbag is used. The airbag is a safety item and so important not to alter. But the steering wheel should phyically fit no problem. Not sure if your new/old wheel is multi-function etc, so you may just have to give it a try. Might be worth a Google search to find info from someone who has done this same retro-fit.

    • @TotalTechnik

      It will likely be too weak if you glue it. The best option may be to buy a used one on eBay and swap it over yourself. Should not cost very much money at all for a used stalk. Hope that helps! :-)

    You guys happen to know if an Audi A6 4 spoke 06-08 air bag fits an Audi A4 2008 4 spoke steering wheel if it doesn't do you know any other Audi air bag that is compatible with an A4 4 spoke steering wheel thanks

    • @TotalTechnik
      @TotalTechnik  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there
      It's not something we would want to advise on TBH. The airbag is so key in driver safety that changing to another airbag has possible safety issues.
      Personally I'd stick with factory airbag and upgrade the steering wheel (which is what I assume you really want to change??)
      May be worth asking around on the forums on that, but bear in mind that there is always a possibility it may not deploy if it is not the original factory airbag designed for that model. Just because the electrical plugs may be the same, it does not mean the pin assignment will be the same, or that the signal sent by the car is the same as that required by the airbag.
      It's a bit of a can of worms TBH. But best of luck with it!

      Hey there! Almost certainly I would say yes it would be possible. I have not done this adaptation myself, but I see no reason why it cannot be done. You may have to upgrade a couple of components within the steering wheel assembly.
      I'd recommend doing some Google research or visiting one of the Audi forums like audi-sport.net as more info on this upgrade should be available.

    • @TotalTechnik
      @TotalTechnik  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there! Physically yes, but B6 was single stage airbag and B7 was dual stage airbag. So not straight forward. You'll have to do DIY wiring to adapt, and there's no guarantee that it would actually fire in the case of an accident. So, has a safety consideration.
