    Internal shattered plastic rear led?

    Glad to report local Audi dealer sorted my lights, I paid for one hours labour - but I was happy too as the £900 for led lights was taken by them (or Germany, never heard the final outcome). What I didn't realise is Audi Uk can really only act as a negotiator and the local garage could have told...

    A3 or A4

    The A4 interior bar the air vents is gorgeous but I think externally the A3 saloon is better. The A4 rear looks off to me, can't warm to it, actually prefer the look of the A4 Avant rear oddly... I think they spent their time designing the new A5 exterior - a thing of beauty! Sent from my...

    Friends and family think I am crazy

    Mine are the same, think I'm mad spending that much time...until they saw the end result - like factory new one said, offers then came in to do theirs. Thing is, while its tough work, I love doing my own, not sure if I'd care as much doing others as its not my baby! Sent from my iPhone using...

    Internal shattered plastic rear led?

    Glad they replaced it, once seen always noticed, every time you cleaned the car the rage levels would have fired up!

    Internal shattered plastic rear led?

    @S32B when you say contact Audi UK (sorry newish to this kind of thing), would that be due to local maybe trying to give the runaround so they don't have to pay or just UK has more clout? I purchased from Essex but live in Dundee, but assuming any Audi garage would sort it, but I'm guessing...

    Internal shattered plastic rear led?

    Here's a few more. I've had a feel for movement and there's a very very slight movement on the left one but the actual boot moves so really having to apply force but you can feel the slight movement rather than see it if that makes sense - I don't think I'm imagining it :) But the left part...

    Internal shattered plastic rear led?

    Hi, Noticed the oddest thing today. I treat my saloon well, had her last decent clean last week. Putting the groceries away today and noticed internal cracking along the top left rear moving round the side and a wee bit at the bottom and on the bottom right led. I've had no impacts. Even if some...

    Audi Service Price Match - have they told the dealers?

    £228 for my first service at 19000 on my 2.0tdi saloon. Expected the vat to be added on top so was pleasantly surprised it was already included. Sales guys had been testing the new A4, said its nice but the new A5 was gorgeous!

    Time for my upgrade, Audi charging £50 more for same tyres and want a printed quote to match (won't accept an online quote stating local garage) so I'm going elsewhere. So the F1's, blackcircle have 225/40 R18 Y92 at £90 and the W92 at £106 which state they can run flat. I know nothing about...

    VAG Admit Cheating Diesel Emmissions...

    I can see it now with the new A4 coming, 4K off the old A4, was dirty but now clean...clear the courts for the new arrival. Joking aside I wish I was buying new, would be well up for a new A4 Avant with 2K discount!

    VAG Admit Cheating Diesel Emmissions...

    I have the Nov13 sline 2.0 150 and while the other sites seem to suggest its the other engine my V5 has Nox at .151 so assumed I'd be one of those affected...?
