    VCDS/VAG COM in Doset/Hampshire Required

    Hi Guys, I have a 54 plate 2.5 tdi convertible and looking for someone preferably close to Bournemouth, but willing to travel who has VCDS or VAG Com, and is able to tweak a few settings on my car.

    2.5 tdi

    Hi, I bought a 2.5tdi cabby last summer, and absolutely love it. Had the Cambelt changed as there was no record of it having been changed and although it only had 42k on the clock, it was 7 years old, and I didn't want to risk it. Aside from that, I had a custom remap carried out so it is...

    Hi mate, not a million miles away from you, and I had the same problem last week....thieving scroats !!! Rang Audi at Chandlers Ford and they want £25 each centre cap including VAT. I found a used set on eBay, but they still cost me £55 with p&p. Unfortunately they are not that common, and the...

    The worst day in my Audi life!

    Hi Guys, after reading about this I went outside to check my car, especially given the evening before the heavens opened and it chucked it down like rivers. However, checked under the battery and it was dry as a bone. Nevertheless this morning I rang Audi, gave them my erg number, they checked...

    A4 Cab 2.5v6 TDI fresh from remap at VAGCHECK.com

    Ok guys, update on the Engine Management Light. Seems it was the actuator/intake flap v157 at fault, but NOT due to the remap. The flap was sticking, which I believe is quite a common fault. Part was replaced, fault cleared. Car was still under warranty, so didn't have to cough up the £282.60...

    How Economical is Yours ??

    Hi guys nice to see some responses, sorry haytch didnt do any really meaningful miles prior to the remap, and I guess I am a bit "Driving Miss Daisy" when commuting to work and back, especially on the motorways, not a lot of fun even if you do give it the beans a little. Not to say I don't enjoy...

    How Economical is Yours ??

    Hi Guys .... I know there have been threads about this before but as I have only had my A4 cab for the last month, I thought I would share my results and see how this compares. My car is a 54 plate cab 2.5v6 TDi with multitronic gearbox, and 44k on it. Recently had a remap, and therefore have...
