This coding process is crucial for the taillights to function correctly (e.g., turn signals, brake lights, running lights). If you are unfamiliar with vehicle coding procedures or do not have the necessary diagnostic tools, it is strongly advised to seek assistance from a qualified automotive technician or an Audi specialist.
For users who do not have the coding values or prefer a complete solution, Kufatec offers a full kit (item number 38860-3) which may include coding dongles or pre-programmed modules. Please refer to Kufatec's official website or your dealer for more information on this complete kit.
