    Got a shock today at dealer

    New turbo now fitted and quiet like new. The power delivery feels smoother too. Had a chat with Superchips and they have no evidence to suggest a problem with the program but to be safe they sent a new program with less boost and it does not seem to have affected overall performance but may...

    AVS Servicing - Post your quotes and dealers here.

    Just had my 1st longlife service done at 17042 miles on my 2.0tdi sport at Huddersfield Audi(supplying dealer also), mixed thoughts though! They gave me an A4 2.0tdi S-line Avant with the 7speed auto. Quite impressed with that but not the steering. Not as direct as the A3's. oil Filter 5.35...

    2.0TDI Hesitation / Service Fix

    Do you mean if you come off the throttle and then back on you get a slight jerk/hesitation because mine does the same thing and also when feathering the throttle on flat roads to maintain speed sometimes. My car went in for a flash update but it still does it from time to time. My car has only...

    I wish I could remember who the gentleman was on the phone but he gave the impression of being a complete novice with very little response to my questoins about the service you were trying to get off the ground. I work within the service industry and may be more critical than others but we...

    awesome gti remap 2.0tdi

    I rang you guys at Awesome with regards to 2.0tdi remapping a few weeks ago and received dreadful service over the phone from a guy who appeared to have no interest whatsoever. I won't ring again! I'm not moaning but just giving a little constructive advice about telephone handling for queries...

    ECU Update at first service, any ideas?

    Today I received an email form Audi and the reason my car feels less responsive off the line is the upgraded software. Audi are having issues on the diesel models with early clutch failure due to the throttle being too aggressive. They have altered the throttle response in first to allow for a...

    ECU Update at first service, any ideas?

    I had a fault on my nov06 2.0 tdi where it was slightly jerky(misfire could it could be) on a light throttle and the dealer did a flash update last week and I'm very unhappy with the car. The throttle now feels unresponsive when setting off and I need to be heavier on the pedal to get swift...

    Anyone fitted the tailpipes from the accessory range?

    I bought them a few weeks ago on Ebay and had a little fun breaking the old welded droopers off but managed in the end. The original pipes under neath the old covers also have a slight downward angle which I left as you don't see it after the polished pipes are fitted. One question which might...
