2012 Audi S4 with Push button start, automatic trans, Installed EVO-ALL+THAR AUD1. (latest firmware confirmed with flashlink)

If the canbus is alive, the car will start on 3x lock of oem fob.

If the car is asleep, as in it sits overnight then "4x" lock is required to start the engine.

Something I've also noticed is 3x lock does not stop the engine when it has been started by the EVO-ALL module..so if engine is started with fortin module, no amount of fob lock button pressed will not stop the engine.

The system was updated with flashlink during the install process and only setting changed was the start run time length from 5mins to 30mins.

All the wiring that is required with the THAR-AUD1 has ben double checked and as mentioend, if canbus is live it'll start perfectly fine on 3x lock, it's just when the vehcle is asleep it's like you need to press the remote 1x to wake up the canbus and then 3x to start the engine. 

The 3x lock to shut off engine after start with fortin system, I'm not sure if this is possible or correct so I'm not 100% this is a concern.

Is any of the above normal operation?

Hello.

I have an Audi A3 2016 PTS that has an EVO-ALL V7 installed through a THAR-VW1 harness and it all woked seamless for months, with very minor glitces.

In while AC maitenance; namely the front door air actuator, I had to remove the imstruments cluster to have more room to work. It was a major pain, but I got it done.

Then I decided to check for a newer suggested firmware of my EVO-ALL and found v64.09, from v64.05 I was currently using.

The Cluster removal happened early in my project and only about 7 hours later the car was all reassembebled with some with some expected DTCs present, that were easily cleared to 0 DTC. When installed, the cluster was 100% operaciotnal, as everything else in the car - I only had to ajust it's clock .

But EVO-ALL was dead.

I came to the conclusion that the unit was not programmed any more in the car, so Idecided to try re-programming it all over again, but it keeps on failling on step 13: The LEDs keep flashing in 5x groups.

And this troubleeshooting guide says this is Cluster Protection Mode.

I don't see any issues or error message in he cluster, or in the infotaiment system.

I already left the car with the battery ON for 20+ minutes, but the issue persists.

I tried flashing back the version I had before, and also a master reset, but the 5x RED is always the final result.

How can I fix this situation??

Can I get a hand please?

EVO-ONE, THAR-AUDT1,
Installed the unit last year, it is working fine however I want to change a setting on the module. 

I've attempted to connect via flashlink MGR and it cant find the module. 
I've updated the firmware as advised in the software for the flashlink manager USB, now using v4.05 however still cant connect. It just shows retry detection? 

I have also tried bypass mode and that still doesnt work. 
When connecting there are no lights on the module. 

Hello.

I successfully installed an EVO-ALL with a THAR-VW1 and the TB-VW, it is running the firmware suggested by the FLASH LINK MANAGER for the car - which is not the latest.

I can remote start the car with 3x Lock on the OEM fob, but when I do so, the keyless entry does not work anymore, I have to press the Unlock button in the fob to open the door.

Is this by design or I need to fix something in my installation?

Thanks,

Cleber.
