Hello Tom,
I already got DED@A2 to install the noise cancelling material and Bose set. Nicely done and sounds great.
I also got the CC installed by Morris.Very happy with that also. So I’m good.
Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Vandaag is bij mij langs geweest Timmus, oftewel Tom.
Tom heeft voor mij de EGR weg geschreven en tevens een re-map van de ECU gedaan.
Dit was in enkele minuten gedaan op een door Tom zelfgebouwde "gizmo box". Op de "gizmo box" van Tom kunnen verschillende componenten worden aangesloten en uitgelezen en tevens aangepast worden.
Daarna heeft Tom een CC gemonteerd en aangesloten. Hij gebruikt hiervoor een origineel VAG product, dus geen aftermarket/China product.
Het aansluiten van de kabelboom is zeer professioneel gedaan. Netjes de originele kabelboom en goten volgend. Dit verklaart ook meteen waarom instrumenten paneel verwijderd diende te worden (wat in mijn optiek niet nodig was, maar na het zien van waarom logisch is).
Na een test met VCDS volgde een testrit samen met Tom. Uiteraard verliep deze uitmuntend; De Cruise doet het goed, en de EGR foutmelding blijft nu weg.
De re-map van de ECU achte ik eigenlijk niet nodig, maar ja, beter mee verlegen dan om verlegen dacht ik zo..... De A2 is nu echt, maar ECHT een raket geworden. Trekt verder door in toeren ook zonder "adem" te verliezen, maar ook winst in de lage regionen. Dit alles zonder ook maar een pufje roet ontwikkeling!
Ik ben er erg blij met het resultaat, en ook dat ik juist Tom gevraagd heb voor deze klus.
Mocht je ook nog wat gedaan hebben aan je A2 qua retrofit, wacht dan niet te lang en stuur Tom een bericht. Ik kan je hem van harte aanbevelen!
Tom; BIG THANX! It was an honour and a pleasure to meet you, and a joy to see you work so dedicated and concentrated on my car, as if it was your own.

Today Tom has visited my place.
Remap, EGR delete and Color DIS Installed.
I'm a happy man, and Tom is a fantastic Chap!
En verder zou ik alle goede dingen kunnen herhalen, die Spits al gezegd heeft :-)

@trebbor77 !!
Bij deze wil je nog hartelijk danken voor het kenbaar maken dat er een "Handig Mannetje" naar de Lage Landen kwam.
Zonder jouw bericht was ik er in ieder geval niet achter gekomen, HULDE Baas!

Thank you to everyone for your kind reviews of my work. It's been a pleasure being here and meeting so many members of this club. Thanks also to those who helped to organise the Chapter West social on Friday night, and to whoever paid for my drink. 
I've seen a few comments about Colour FIS in recent days from people wanting more details. I would love to do a video that shows everything it can do, but for now I'll just post some pictures. Today, I did a Colour FIS installation for the 4th time in this visit to the Netherlands, so I was able to take a few rough photos with my phone...
This photo shows an S-line instrument cluster with Colour FIS on the Home screen...
This photo shows the Home screen. At the top, you can see audio data from the stereo; we're listening to CD track 8. In the middle, the main measurement is the oil level; it's showing 47.8mm. In green, it's showing me that 3 of the car's doors are open. At the bottom, we can see that the car is parked; the blue 'P'. To either side of the 'P', you can see four measurements in white. These are the driver's favourite measurements, and are chosen in a background menu. In this case, we are showing exterior temperature, engine intake temperature, engine torque and turbo boost pressure.
This photo shows the Colour FIS Home screen whilst driving. The main measurement is turbo boost, and you can see the turbo is creating only +0.01bar of boost. The stereo is switched off, so there is no audio data to display. All the doors are closed, fuel is not needed, there are no sensor faults, etc, so there is an 'OK' in blue. You can see that the car is driving on cruise control, and that it is set to 29km/h. If you cancel cruise control, the cruise control resume memory is displayed. The car is in 2nd gear.
This photo shows what happens when the status of any door changes. Colour FIS also monitors the boot and bonnet.
The standard FIS 'carousel' has only 5 main measurements: instant fuel consumption, averager fuel consumption, driving time, average speed, distance to empty. The Colour FIS 'carousel' has 15: instant fuel consumption, averager fuel consumption, driving time, average speed, current speed, distance to empty, fuel volume remaining, distance travelled, boost pressure, coolant temperature, inlet temperature, oil temperature, oil level, battery voltage, engine torque.
If you want to, you can also show some summary pages whilst driving. Additional measurements feature here.

This photo shows your 'digital dipstick'...
This photo shows the in-built diagnostic scanner. We are currently connected to the multifunction steering wheel, and there is clearly a fault with the infotainment wiring.
It's also possible to plot a graph of any measurement from any control module. If you need to use Colour FIS to test your clutch pedal, or your cruise control buttons, or your engine sensors, or your factory parking sensors, you can. Every VCDS measuring block is available. This allows for advanced diagnostics, all in your instrument cluster. In this photo, a simple graph of engine rpm is being displayed.

Colour FIS has lots of features and lots of personalisations. You can change the primary colour, set a background that you like, choose your favourite measurement, switch off measurements that don't interest you, etc. You can set a soft speed limiter, enable gear change instruction, reset your service indicator, etc. Of course, integration with Audi SatNav systems and bluetooth telephone interfaces also works perfecly.
This photo shows switching on the Mirror Control park assist. With Mirror Control on, you can select the passenger mirror on the joystick.
When you go into reverse gear, your passenger mirror looks downwards, so you can park next to a pavement more easily.
When you come out of reverse gear, your mirror goes back to looking straight. Of course, if you want to reverse in open space, and don't want your mirror to look down when you select reverse gear, simply leave the joystick in the centre position.
I hope this gives everyone a better idea of what Colour FIS does.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi Edge13
That's not a problem. You can still upgrade to Colour FIS from a basic cluster, but more parts are needed and so it becomes more expensive.
