i have a 12 plate exeo (basically a B7 A4 S line with a CR engine), the wife normally drives it but I have been using it a fair bit lately and the radio is driving me nuts! The FM signal sounds like a skipping CD. This is on a RNSE unit, the later ones with the better screens etc.
I did play...
My dad had an 11 plate A4 avant and loved it, it has trailer perp (dual fans, bigger alternator and the red plug in the boot on the RHS behind the trim) so retro fitting a towbar was easy.
He now has a 14MY (63 plate) avant black edition again - this time with electric boot if that makes any...
My late (2005 registered B6 130 6 speed) has started to rattle at idle but only when cold, I have tracked it to the AC pulley as you can turn the outer by hand and make it clack, so the rubber bumpers are shot... Has anyone got one of the replacements from German ebay and just swapped the...
I have a 2012 seat exeo fitted with the 170bhp common rail engine like the b8, and I have been getting rubbish mpg, one guy on seat-cupra.net has has his cut out, and the dealer said there is a know issue with 140s and the egr/ throttle, and he has had the same on his 170..
Theres far more b8s...
In the end I just paid the £47 for the adaptor and I am part way through fitting the parrot mki9200 kit I have.. It's a pain but I read too many conflicting reviews of the app radio to risk it..

halfords have the pioneer appradio on offer at the moment, and they sell...

This depends how you drive, and a full tank will always say you have way more for a short bit of economy driving, and an extra 4mpg is alot with a 12 gallon tank... vs a half full tank.
I will know how much one is later so I will let you all know, (on my trip to work with a outside temp of 5deg...

Ill borrow the wifes car one day for a run to work too, and see what that does as I will be peeved if thats got a lazy stat already!
