Audi A3 8V Hill Hold Assist Retrofit

Audi Hill Hold Assist On a 2016 Audi A3 8V With Electronic Parking Brake. Suitable For Other Audi Vehicles Across The Range!
Using all Genuine Audi Parts we have successfully retrofitted a much missed and loved feature to this Audi A3 Cabriolet. It came from factory with the Electronic Parking Brake and the customer sorely missed the Auto Hill Hold Function from his previous vehicle.
In this video we explain how the system works once installed.
Once installed the vehicle will hold itself when stationary and show the green icon on the dashboard / virtual cockpit!
It's activated by pressing a button and allows the driver to set the car in motion smoothly without having to use the handbrake at all. If the vehicle remains stationary for a long period with Audi hold assist active, the system automatically switches over to the parking brake. There's no need to operate the handbrake to pull away.
After you release the brake pedal, the hydraulic pressure is maintained, meaning the hydraulic system keeps the brake pads pressed against the brake discs at the front and rear.
Suitable across the range of new Audi vehicles, get in touch if your car is missing this feature!!

Not sure if Audi's system is different to VW's but in the Golf 7, this is called Auto Hold and is different to Hill Start Assist. Hill Start Assist automatically activates if the road gradient is above a certain % and it maintains brake pressure for up to a couple of seconds so that the car doesn't roll as you move your foot from the brake to accelerator. The feature in the video is Auto Hold and will maintain the brake pressure you stopped the vehicle with for as long as you're stopped until you press the accelerator, this doesn't activate the electronic parking brake, just the normal brakes. In some models it will apply the parking brake after a set amount of time - from memory in a first generation Tiguan it engaged the parking brake after about 5 minutes stopped.

How much do you charge to fit on an s3 Sportback 66 plate? Need this ASAP but need a super price

Yea, but even without the hill climb ... if your handbrake is on and you try and drive off... the handbrake disengages... the only difference is a button and the hold function.

Hi James. Sorry I haven't managed to pop around yet. Thus far as im aware this feature is just called auto hold (unless its a different name for audis just like VW have dcc and audi have mag ride). In all honesty I thought this would of been a standard feature on all DSG cars with electronic brake or it might just be in the VW's.

My 2019 Golf R has it

[@bannekz]

So I just buy the button and install it and it works? No coding needed?

[@AdvancedInCarTechnologies]

Lots and lots of coding needed on this one.

[@simonmellor2280]

@@AdvancedInCarTechnologies when you say lots of coding, do you mean long coding on vagcom?

[@BS-ge4ne]

Wow this is £500 fitted! 😅

Who needs hill assist in a automatic? 😂

[@blue-ck9ns]

That’s not hill assist. It’s Auto Hold. You can take your foot off the brake and it will hold the brakes for you. Useful at a red light or in a drive thru.
In my car (Golf R), it will also automatically apply the parking brake when I turn off the car. Then the next time I drive it, I put it in Drive, step on the gas, and the parking brake turns off automatically; I never even have to touch the button. I assume it does this in Audi models as well.

[@peterpan6156]

@@blue-ck9ns Yes I've got the same, isn't that a standard feature tough? This customer who had a extra button fitted just wasted his money, don't you agree?

[@blue-ck9ns]

PETER PETERSON I don’t think it’s standard in all markets. I know the Golf R is the only vw/audi model in the US that has it
