Hi,
My wife is due to drop a sprog in 12 days.....(great timing huh!?)
I went to my local Audi dealer today (Cardiff Audi) to get the passenger airbag de-activated so we can plonk the rear facing baby seat in the front.
My A2 does not have the "switch" in the glovey, and the dealer rang Audi UK technical who state that it cannot be done on this model....They did say that for some Audi's - A4, A6 etc, that there was an additional part they could install to the wiring loom that incorporates a switch to activate/de-activate the passenger airbag, but diddly squat for the A2!....this sucks. [2]
I find it hard to beleive really - a lot of the fitments in my A2 are exactly the same as in my previous VW Golf - indicator stalks, computer functions, door handles etc., so I find this little problem hard to beleive - a lot of things are very similar, if not identical, right across the VW/Audi range - We've had VW/Audi's in the family for more than 30 years and this has always been the case.
Has anyone encountered such problems?
