The links provided are more expensive than mine and do not include fitting with valves and balancing. I was £178 all in for both tyres including fitting and balancing, not per tyre ;-).

I recently got advice from another Audi owner about Barum Bravuris 2, tyres made by Continental at their Czech plant. Anyway, did a bit of research and managed to get 2 new fronts for £178 fully fitted on 225/50/17’s XL W rated. So far delighted with them and they are supposed to wear well...

Mine went at 22,000 6 days before the Audi warranty expired!!! Clutch was slipping, rev needle going up but car speed not matching needle sweep. Felt very lucky with this one but first gear is still very sticky if you go from 2nd to 1st with any engine speed and sometimes from 1st to 2nd.

Thanks for the tip. I have ordered up the recommended stuff. Cheers

Keen to know if you got to the bottom of the squeak? I have had this noise for over a year now and no amount of silicon has cured it.

My mate has a 120bhp tdi remapped by Revo, The said gain is 180bhp and the car engine is seemingly the 143bhp engine detuned. It is not, I am led to believe, the 170bhp detuned as I think that car has some engine differences like injectors etc... He has loads of mid range power with it going all...

I'm interested in your thoughts on Revo as after extensive research that is who I went with. My car is rapid now but only if I want it to be. If I drive normally it feels just like it did before the remap. I have never done anything like this before and was extremely nervous about taking the...

What is the easy fix to these dry door seals as the rattle coming from drivers door makes me think I am drving some heap of merde! I've sprayed some silicon on most of the rubbers around the door and door frame but it is still there! I thought it might have been coming from the verticle black...

This is a really interesting thread. My daughter is now 4 years old so I am sure things will have moved on tremendously since she was a baby. We used Jane (Spanish so pronounced accordingly), carrycot, pram/pushchair and carseat systems. They, at the time, were the best stuff on the market and...

TripleD, all things being equal would your first choice have been a remap rather than a tuning box? The reason I ask is I am about to get a remap soon and just wanted your opinion on the tuning box. I too have been very disappointed with my 2.0 TDI economy but I suppose I got it for a good price...

Any thoughts/experiences on Celtic Tuning for a 2.0TDI 120 or 143bhp CR?

North East Fife, Scotland.

Not sure if you mean locked or unlocked but I don't know the answer yet either way as it hasn't been hooked up yet to vagcom for remapping purposes.

Hello, I am nervously just about to take a plung into the remapping market and Revo seems to be the one at the top of list. I have a 2.0 TDI 120bhp and what I would be most grateful for is other peoples experiences with this stage 1 remap on their 143bhp or 120bhp cars. Also, I would love to...
