nah mate, sorry i posted this under the wrong forum originally (needed to update my favourites). Nah the car isnt under warranty anymore. Anyone know anything about this sort of thing?

Hi all Well....So far my A3 has been a shambles and I have had a lot of work done on it in the 2 years ive owned it. Now there is a new problem in which the engine management light has come on and stays on. Now..... the garage inform me it is because my temp guage is faulty (and the new set...

yup we have a sunroof mate - i thought this is what it would be as i can feel the wee tube dangling inside the frame when i poke my finger in there.... no drainage tube pointing into the frame when it should be pointing out, can be good eh

Actually - we are still missing one of the grommets. We have hunted high and low in Glasgow and nobody seems able to get us one. Any chance someone could give me a shout if you see one in a scrappy or wherever? Its from the passenger door front pillar, and it is about 2 inches in...

ach its the same old story - theres a hole next to my pollen filter that ought to have a stopper in it. We couldnt find one to fit and Audi have taken about 4 months now just to friggin name it and order it for us!!! Finally got the stopper and hopefully thatll be the end of the trouble. Just...

ahh... Well, the wife phoned me there and said that the battery was drained due to this frickin leak ive been having trouble with. The water shorted a current, which turned on my hazard lights, which then drained my battery over the course of the night! What a swine. I hate my car.

Hi guys.. Wife just phoned me to say the car wouldnt start this morning and there was a *FUSE* sign lighting up above the speedo. Can anyone shed some light on this before we pay a spark to come out and fix it? Im having no luck with this car at all. Cheers Ed

Jaysus, would you believe Audi dont make that wee grommet anymore? a weeks waiting time presumably for them to locate one for me! I think itll have to be some duct tape in the meantime

excellent posting chaps thanks for that - just got on the phone to audi to have them order it in for me, as no local scrappies seem to have any A3s! Cheers for the help chaps, impressive! Ed

Cheers mate, good to know its not just me...So is this hole supposed to have a grommet or the likes plugging it?

Folks - Help. Upon reading this, everyone will immediately think "not another eejit with a leak" but theres a difference here! I actually KNOW where the leak is coming from, i just need to know how to plug it up, and if its usual to have this anomoly where it is. The leak is coming into the...

aye we had this and actually had the car into the garage to have it changed as it seemed overly loud, but sure enough the noise remained....

well.... the car is booked in for the 21st to have this wee valve replaced (you know...the tick tick tick tick coming from the front right? ok whats the technical term? go on...) so, i hope this is the last i need to worry about it, and hopefully the next thing is my 60k service! (shudder)

Hi guys RE: GLASGOW AUDI - BRAEHEAD I recently had my A3 in the local garage to have a bit of work done (warning lights were coming on for no reason, and some sort of ticking noise from front right) and i have to say that when we put it into the garage two months ago, we really thought it...

sounds like the immobiliser yup... although i wasnt aware of this being a problem indicator light. ours lights up until ignition, then goes off after a few seconds, as with one ror two other yellow lights.
