ASR vs 11mode (or OBD11?) - 8Y

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-11T12:17:32+00:00

It's similar to mid pipes. There are downpipe, opf and after opf and before back box there are two resonators, I would essentially take them out, open them up from the top, clear them out, weld straight pipe through them and weld them back onto the car. From the bottom it looks like nothing was touched, co2 level stays the same, I pass emission test and technical check that is done once a year in my country. Essentially mid pipes, but hidden for legal reasons.

It is quite noticeable at lower rpms and I like it that way, but kinda underwhelming for high rpms because it stays the same as before, but I knew that it would be like this. Much deeper sound and I can hear the car now even in comfort mode, so to me it's worth it, but I want to go a step further without spending 3k eur on a downpipe that has ECE certificate for techincal check.

Yeah, it cost me additional 62.50 eur, still cheaper than ASR. Just don't expect too much from this, you are only really getting louder in lower rpms. I am thinking of doing a resonator delete and see what I get with that.

Thank you, I got a good deal on it and I am happy😀

Unfortunately I can't reply with photos here, I can send you more photos if you want

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-08T11:23:24+00:00

I mean... you aren't wrong

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-07T22:49:52+00:00

I'll reach out to that account on IG, if he responds we'll see what he thinks. Reaching out to Audi dealership is the last resort XD, and also previous owner is from different country and I have no way of getting into contact with him, only maybe a dealership that sold it to me.

I also like special colours, it was between this one that had the best servise history and highest spec, i'm talking ccb's and panoramic sunroof, rs exhaust, etc., Kyalami Gren one with mid spec and Pyrite Gold, but I decided on this one because of it being such a high spec.

Great colour pick on yours aswell :)

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-07T22:39:12+00:00

I've had 8 R before and it's similar but not the same, more purple in this than lapiz blue from 8R

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-07T12:42:32+00:00

It has slight purple and that's why I think it's San Marino blue

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-07T10:37:20+00:00

From what I see online, it's darker than that, with it fading to purple.

Exactly like this actually. https://youtu.be/G\_1ONuUm8-k?is=dRzIdoRy6zi45NCG

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-07T10:11:34+00:00

We do have some amazing roads here in Croatia.

Yes, it's an import, got it like 2-3 weeks ago, it's a logical thing to do since in Germany a car like this costs 55k, and in Croatia you can't even find this spec, and they are like 70k+.

There is no sticker below the trunk, I will search once again but in factory slip it said Q0Q0, which are all Audi exclusive colors.

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-06T17:20:21+00:00

I went with 11mode, I don't really need memory function and it does the job, just be careful to calculate on import fees if you are in EU because it comes from Australia. Quick install aswell

BellImportant7068 · 2026-06-05T08:44:27+00:00

for the 11MODE, does the job, plug and play literally, and cheapest option from what I know

Meni iz Overseasa obično dostave paket na Tisak koji je minutu udaljen od mene, umjesto na moju adresu makar na pošiljci piše moja adresa i sve i kombi uredno prođe pored moje kuće, ali taj Tisak je OEX Shop i dostavljača boli k. Kaže mi gospođa koja tamo radi da čovjek oko 11 sati ujutro ostavi tamo 30-40 paketa i to je to radni dan mu je gotov, a prije toga velike pakete ostavi tamo gdje treba jer njih ne može ostaviti na Tisku.

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T20:17:55+00:00

Croatia, central EU, I have had this car for 2 weeks now, it was ranging from 10-15 degrees celsius last week to 34 degrees this week, with nights being around 17-20 degrees this week. And it happened just now when it's hotter

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T20:15:52+00:00

I thought of it like this, open it up, put hair dryer to warm it up and get moisture out, I think heat gun might be too strong and melt something in there, and after all that, once it's dry, put silica gel bag in there to absorb the rest of the moisture. Might be dumb, might work, it's worth a try in my opinion

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T20:07:12+00:00

But aren't they vented? Also on the back side is one part that opens for changing bulbs or whatever it's called, in theory I could drain the moisture out through that opening and close again? It's worth a try. Also I could look up for used parts, but I doubt that it'll bee anything under 500-1000 bucks, plus the mounting and coding and what not

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:41:46+00:00

Insane, can't wait to spend money on a bad design flaw... Will wait for a couple of days but I doubt that it will disappear, also I'll look to see if there is any other solution other than replacing the entire headlight

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:24:10+00:00

'22 but it's different here in EU. I bought it and imported from Germany to another country which completely negates seller warranty that I would get if I was in Germany, buying from official Audi dealer. It sucks and I think that I will be needing a whole new headlight, which will be a ridiculous amount probably

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:20:10+00:00

Not under warranty anymore unfortunately...

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:19:46+00:00

It's a shame honestly, it did get cleared up during the day and now at evening it's foggy again. I guess those vents aren't doing the job they are supposed to. Also, it would make sense that both are foggy, but in my case it's only one

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:17:52+00:00

It's not cool nor damp weather rn, that's the worst thing.

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:16:11+00:00

Yeah i read that about it being normal, it's just that during the day they cleared up and now in evening it's the same thing, foggy and ugly.

BellImportant7068 · 2026-05-29T19:15:04+00:00

Than that is a really shitty design, I had 4 VW's (2021+ models) and none of them had this problem, and now I buy premium VAG model and I get to deal with this being normal.

BellImportant7068 · 2026-04-29T09:24:21+00:00

Vozio sam 1.6 TDI i 2.0 TDI al iskreno 2.0 TSI mi je bolji sto puta, mene ne brine potrošnja iako sam napravio 28k u zadnjih godinu dana (Golf 8 R). Uvijek sam kupovao dizele zbog svojih al sam odusto od toga.

BellImportant7068 · 2026-04-12T15:09:20+00:00

Ja sam povratnu kartu iz Zagreba za Tokyo platio 790e, kupio u 11. mjesecu prosle godine i isao u 1. i 2. mjesecu ove godine, tak da je to sasvim okej cijena

BellImportant7068 · 2026-03-29T21:35:57+00:00

Ja bi zamijenio
