    A4 Avant - Nozzle Jet Adjustment - Any tips?

    Hi all The nozzle on my 06 A4 avant was blocked, so I duly pulled off the nozzle and cleaned it. It now squirts but no matter which way I point it, it seems to hit the inside of that plastic cover. The nozzle I have is the single jet (like this picture I found)...

    Audi A4 B7 1.9 115BHP Breakdown :( - Clutch and DMF?

    Thanks, good call. Will also make sure that's checked. The garage is very above board but things like what brand of clutch is preferred is a bit more subjective.

    Audi A4 B7 1.9 115BHP Breakdown :( - Clutch and DMF?

    Hi All My fathers A4 B7 1.9 Diesel has just broken down and the pedal is loose (but does slowly spring back). It is possibly the cylinder but just as likely the clutch given it has done 125,000 Parts seem to be about £130 for a sachs clutch (good brand for the A4?) or is valeo worth the...

    Oil for 2006 1.9 TDI 110?

    Hi All A bit confused as to which top up oil we should buy for a 2006 1.9 TDI 110? We picked up 1 litre from Audi which was the 5W30 Castrol Edge "Professional", however the Castrol Guide and online retailers all say it is just the usual 5W30 Castrol Edge that we now need and I seemingly...

    An update on this one Eventually got it working, seems the install instructions floating around the net are now invalid. Apparently there was a replacement switch made in Malta to replace the original and that design required that you fitted the switch with the clutch depressed, the very...

    Audi A4 Avant B7 - Cruise Control not working

    I have a generic OBD2 cable(not KKL) that should be able to read some basic info, will try this first and see if any faults are flagged. If not will do as mentioned above about pulling the clutch switch off and joining the connectors. Thanks for the help all :D

    Audi A4 Avant B7 - Cruise Control not working

    Hi All My father has a Audi A4 Avant B7 and the cruise control is failing to engage. It would appear to be either the clutch/brake switch or the main stalk, is there any easy way of checking the switches? The car is still under used warranty from a specialist but they are about 1hr30...

    Audi A3 1.8 Turbo Buyer- Few questions for you!! :D

    Good idea, had already thought about it. 80k cars with the facelift and leather, still seem to go for about this kind of price bracket any way. Only cheap car ive seen was a 2000 facelift with 95k miles, but pretty poor spec for 6k.!
