Hi Everyone,
As requested, I am creating a dedicated thread to this topic.
I have heard from a number of A1 owners that they love their A1, but the one thing that they feel lets the car down is that it doesn't have heated mirrors as standard.
If you are effected by this limitation and would like a retro-fit solution, then please fill in the form over on the A1OC site: http://www.audia1ownersclub.co.uk/heated-mirror-retro-fit/
The registration numbers of cars affected, are being sent to Audi as part of a 'DISS report'. Audi normally need atleast 5 before they will investigate the matter, but the more we get, the better the chance of a resolution.
My ultimate aim here, as a representative of the UK's Audi owners, is to get heated door mirrors to be a standard option and for Audi UK to develop a genuine retro-fit solution (free re-call is obviously the best!).
I will use the bottom of this post to update you on our progress:
Latest Progress:
18th October 2012 - In our last update we mentioned that Audi UK have now accepted our point and heated mirrors are now standard on all Audi A1s. However, we have been working with Advanced In-Car Technologies and now have a retro-fit solution. Call them on 01202 776699 and mention the A1 Owners Club to get a free upgrade to include auto-dipping passenger mirror (dips when reversing to ease parking).
