The camera manufacturer does not recommend for power to be on continually. I wonder if the camera will burn out quickly. I would connect to back up light circuit.
Hi, I purchased the same camera set from ali, will receive it in a few days. But when I plugged my car to VCDS, I saw I don’t have the 10 to activate the rear camera function. What do I need to do to get it? Thanks!
Great job! A lot of manuals tell to hook into Reverse light power, why did you chose to hook into 12v socket? I am going to do my set up, just want to be sure what to do. Thanks!
So that I can turn on the camera anytime, not just in reverse! Also the camera screen stays on a few seconds after coming out of reverse, if you power by reversing lights, you will have a blank screen for a few seconds, also, lights are not that simple today, they are controlled by an ecu which may detect a strange current drain and flag the lamp as faulty
Hi, you can buy the camera off eBay or Ali express, just search for an “Audi A5 reversing camera”, you don’t need any other module, as, if you have the “high” mmi like mine, the wires just go to the missing pins as per my video
I’ve got an RS5 with the factory reversing camera however do find the picture quality poor especially when it starts to get dark…What’s the clarity like with this camera? Thanks
Hi sorry to bother you but bit of a random question. Is that a wireless charging pad you have in your audi under the mmi unit and if so was it aftermarket as would like to fit something like that myself but unsure where to find 1 if you could help. Great videos on the audi by the way 👌
Cheers mate! Yes it is a wireless charging pad, I just searched on ali express for one to fit my car. They are about £30 but work brilliantly and fit in the space perfectly!
Hi mate, I’ve just recently bought one of these cars, I like it so far, but.. It’s to quite!! What’s your thoughts? I’m considering a res delete, but I’m reading all different contradicting things on the web, some say H pipe, some X pipe, some neither and just remove back boxes and some swear by a whole new set up which currently I don’t fancy doing. Your opinion would be grateful. Thanks, Jake
Hi jake, thanks for watching…I know what you mean about the sound! I’m planning to do a back box delete on mine to start with, if that doesn’t improve the sound, I will then look at H or X pipe and just work like that until I’m happy. This is my daily driver so I don’t want it too noisy!!
great description! I only have a problem that after a short ride when I turn on the reverse - the camera does not turn on - I have to reset the MMI to do. any suggestions whats wrong?
Hi friend. Where did you buy your camera mine is not working. It came with a yellow plug with a red wire on the front side not the green black and red wires you have
@@philscars I tried my best. It's just flickering. I have the exact same car an audi s5 sportback 2011 model. Same mmi and everything. I think the issue is the camera.
Hello one more question, my car is a4 b8 2013 year and have only rear park sensors and in Vcds don’t have parking assistant code 10, do you know something about this ? Thank you !
Hello sir, fisrt of all thank you for making this video and sharing your knowledge. I would like to see if is it possible to mount this camera on an A5 B8 T3 having 2G High MMI ?
Hi, thanks for watching, if you get vcds plugged in and enable the reverse camera like I do in the video, if the screen changes like mine did, then it should be possible!
Hi, thanks for watching! Plenty of fuses are in that and the opposite side area, if you get a test meter and look for a 12v supply that is switched on with the ignition, that should do it!!
@@philscars Okey, i will try it with a VCDS cabel. I was in a shop the other day to get a price for them to do it, they wanted £1264, this is in Norway btw. They said i needed an adapter for it to work, what is this adapter?
@@philscars hi sorry to bother you , did you cut the yellow connector off and split the cable to get the two wires that you connect into the blue plug? Thanks Matt.
@@philscotthull Hi Phil , thanks for the quick reply another silly question, I have a cabriolet so the handle has the numberplate lights built in , I’ve found the right type for my car On AliExpress but not sure which camera I need Cvbs 480p 125 deg, cvbs ahd 720p 170 deg, or ahd 170 deg really sorry Thanks Matt
I just finished installing my reverse camera following your guide. Thank you for the upload. Keep up the good work!
Next is Android Auto.
Cheers! I have just done wireless carplay in mine, see my later video!!
Do you have a link for those keys to remove the radio ?
Did you ever get it done

Brilliant. Sorted mine today, well happy. Only thing is, it won't stay on after moving off. Is there something I missed?
The black wire you that you split into 2 then put into the black of the radio, is that the video cable with the yellow end?
Yes, it's the video cable as I get the power from the rear of the car
Thanks a lot. It is very well explained
Thank you
Hi. This worked for me! Thanks for the comprehensive video! I do however recommending getting the female pins for the blue terminal.
I have had no problems since I did this, but yes, I agree, do you know what the pins are called?
Onde comprar a câmara? Não precisa de um módulo?, posso ligar directamente ao mmi?

@@philscars tranquilo, vou tirar o meu mmi e dar uma olhada, obrigado, continua no bom trabalho
thank you, hope it works for you!
Thank you for a great video, where did you buy the camera from? Could you send a link please.
Thanks
Scott
Hi mate, thanks for watching, it was an ali express special, so just search on there for one!
Will it fit for manual car with no patking sensor or anything?
I would think you need at least have parking sensors
I’ve got an RS5 with the factory reversing camera however do find the picture quality poor especially when it starts to get dark…What’s the clarity like with this camera? Thanks
It’s ok I guess, it’s certainly not perfect, but I don’t need great quality for a reversing camera!

Thanks i will have a look
I have a 2016 s5 and i just want to upgrade the camera cuz the quality is not goid. What should i do?
I would assume you can just get one like mine and then just join the wires from the old one to the new one at the back of the car

Hello does camera will work if i dont have parking sensors on my car 2008 a4 b8 avant automatic
I'm not sure mate, sorry
great description! I only have a problem that after a short ride when I turn on the reverse - the camera does not turn on - I have to reset the MMI to do. any suggestions whats wrong?
Hmm, I haven't tried to manually turn it on, I also have a wireless carplay unit installed but haven't had any issues at all
Hi friend. Where did you buy your camera mine is not working. It came with a yellow plug with a red wire on the front side not the green black and red wires you have
I bought mine if aliexpress I think, it was a while ago now! I would just play about with the wires until it works!
@@philscars I tried my best. It's just flickering. I have the exact same car an audi s5 sportback 2011 model. Same mmi and everything. I think the issue is the camera.
@@zethembebenedictmbatha it certainly sounds like a camera issue!

pode mandar o link onde compro essa câmara? não encontro igual.
I didn't put it 7p as it's from ali express and they change constantly, just search for one on there...
Hi guy's cand someone help me
I have intaled step by step the camera and have some problem with the screen it's blurred
I would very much suspect it’s a faulty camera!

Thank you for your answer, i will check this
@@sbouiahmed1080 did you find out if it works with the Mmi 2g high?
@@adamroberts5229 Really no idea until the moment :/
Hi great vid thanks for sharing, did you cut the yellow end off for the wires to pop in the blue connector ( I take it that’s the visual cable?)
Hi. I have a quick question. Is there a way to make the camera pop up when put in reverse straight away?
It does! If you follow what I did, then as soon as you engage reverse, the screen will show the rear camera
@@philscars when I followed ur code. It pulls out the sensors and I have to press the bottom right button to make the camera show
@@AbdulKalam-fv9lg just buy DIY interface much better and simple i bought mine on Ali Express for 120 € works perfectly
Can this work on a manual transmission
You have MMI 2G HIGH or 3G HIGH? Thank you man, nice video.🙋🏼♂️
Thank you! I have 3g high
Hey I’ve been following your guide I’ve realised I don’t have a 12v socket in the boot is there anything else I could connect to
Hi, thanks for watching! Plenty of fuses are in that and the opposite side area, if you get a test meter and look for a 12v supply that is switched on with the ignition, that should do it!!
My wire that you connect to the radio has a yellow male end did you cut yours off to wire it in the back of the radio?
Yes I did!
Thankyou for your help subscribed and liked keep up the good work 👌🏽
Best is connect to your reverse light wire as soon you out in reverse wire get power and your camera
Do you think this works with MMI 2G?
Or wait, i have.

If you do what I did with vcds at the start and you get the same screen, then yes!!
@@philscars Okey, i will try it with a VCDS cabel.
I was in a shop the other day to get a price for them to do it, they wanted £1264, this is in Norway btw.
They said i needed an adapter for it to work, what is this adapter?
@@Rupturedspace not sure, if you do the vcds config and then get the same screen as I did when put in reverse, you will only need the camera
@@philscars Okey, thank you for the help.
I will try the vcds setup before i do anything else.
Why is it not shown how it was connected to radio?
It was, watch the video again
