Audi A3 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A3 MK 3, 8V - Years 2012-2019
Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to mount the light on the cup holder of the Audi A3.

In order to do this purely aesthetic job, first of all we need to remove the center console. To start, we remove the gear shift knob, then, using plastic spatulas, we remove the center console: underneath, there are two connectors that we disconnect. We tilt the gear shift knob to remove the console. Remember to do everything with the car turned off. Once we have the console in hand, we turn it over and see that there are 10 points to detach in order to remove the cup holder. It is a job that requires precision and patience, but it can be done. We remove the thickness, in its place we will put our LED. This item can be found on AliExpress with the code 344316_486351 and costs $19.88, already complete with wiring. We glue the cup holder back together with vinyl glue and keep it under pressure for a few hours so that it adheres well. We can choose the color of the light by connecting the two wires. Now we proceed to reassemble the console and put the gear shift knob back in place. We're all set.

How to reset the service in the Opel Antara?

As we can see in this tutorial, resetting the service in the Opel Antara is an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, of course, we must have completed all the planned maintenance work. We start by inserting the key but leaving it in the initial position, after which we keep the accelerator pedal fully depressed and at the same time turn on the instrument panel, not the engine. At this point, we release the accelerator and press it 3 consecutive times, always all the way. We then restart the panel to verify that the procedure has been carried out correctly.
