Coxy, no radio code in the handbooks and paperwork that came with the car?
German owners are usually anal about paperwork and supply everything with the car.

If no luck, then a visit to your local OPC with the V5 and a couple of proofs of ID should sort you out.

Is it the concert radio?

Do you have the handbook for the car Coxy? Sometimes they stamp it in there somewhere! Worth having a look to see if you have it!

Coxy, the dealer is usually the best bet.

There is a decent chance, that if your owners manual/wallet is the original to the car, then its been hidden in there. Look for a card or slip of digitally printed paper. Should be a 4 pin code.

This will always happen if the battery is taken out of the later cars. ( I'm stating the obvious)

I had the same trouble with my first Audi 90 sedan. I was 2nd owner, and the code was slipped into the wallet, which Audi does not recommend. Convenient for you, convenient for thieves.

Cheers

OK, after turning the house upside down last night looking for the paper part of Alex's driving license, I came across an Audi service book folder. It was the service book for the RS2, (completely stamped from day one which I didn't even know we had so that's a plus!), but it also has the 4 digit code for the Gamma radio.

So now I'm being thick. How do I enter the code?
