engine is 2.4.

My cab shows "service" on startup but its on a long service schedule. I would normally expect about 19000 miles between services with a good wind. Has the dealer set the car to normal service schedule by mistake? I assume that's possible or how does the car "know" when to remind you. I have only...

porbably the dorr opening seal, not on the door itself but on the body. In cross section that seal looks like two rings one large and the other small. The small one connects all the way up to the top of the windscreen in the corner where the roof joins it to drain water from the top of roof and...

Not sure if A4 cab is the sam, but I bought my car wiithout a towbar but when removing the bumperto fit reverse sensors I found it had been cut out underneath and a towbar had been fitted before I owned it. Anyway the point I am trying to make is that I was glad I removed the bumper as the...

You can top up with up to half a litre of standard fixed service oil suitable for the car and keep the long service schedule. If you want to find the right stuff for variable service then this is useful...

check this Audi A4 cabriolet 2003 - water in front passenger footwell | Technical matters | Back Room Forum | Honest John I posted it a while ago, let me know if its your problem, I can probably explain better on the phone if you pm me.

bought mine from here www.fittedparkingsensors.co.uk £75 and you tell them your reg and they are sent sprayed in the right colour if you need soemthing other than black. In theory would have been easy to fit but some numpty modified the bumper bracket when he lost the plastic lugs holding the...

try auto glym rubber and trim juice from halfrauds. get it inside the rubber along the top of the window edge and a quick wipe around the rest. Oversenstive sensor IMO. worked on mine. Also had it on my XF but that required a software upgrade. bring back the days of mechanical problems. You...

strange. The thread I linked to earlier did mention the possibility of different hood frame types. can you post any pics of your hinge arrangement?

mines a 2003 2.4 V6 too and its not been done!

here's the link and there are some very good pics on page three of the thread. What we need is the part number of the plastic mod. I will try to get some info from my local dealer but if anyone else beats me to it please post your finding esp the part number. One dealer I tried just looked at me...

Just seen this and i have the same problem, if your are still there I belive there is a modification to the hinge using a piece of plastic to allow the hood lining to slide over the offending metal parts. i will search for the info and post a link if you respond to this post so I know you are...
