Hi, Does anyone have a definitive pin out for the 409 fuel pump relay? I need to retro fit one to an 1.8T (AGU) conversion in a Lotus Elise and the pin labeling on the wiring diagram (Haynes, admittedly) is different to that on the relay?? Some I have managed to work out myself by a process of...

Hi, I have just helped a friend bring home a 2004 A4 1.9TDI multitronic, it was involved in an accident, he bought it bent, had it repaired and have just realised it is refusing to start. The ignitition switches on fine, DIS says press footbrake to start but no gear position shown in the...

Is it fairly straightforward to change my 2001 1.9TDi A4 B5 from variable servicing to fixed? I guess this is a job for VCDS (hence posting in here). I have access to a cheap-o ebay lead and the trial version of VCDS, is the functionallity in this software or will I need the full blown jobbie...

Currently in the process of fitting lowering springs to my 2001 tdi avant, started with the rear passenger side as this was the spring that the car failed the MOT on yesterday (it was the same money for 2 standard rear springs or a full lowering kit, so went for that). Anyway, I have the...

In need of some help (car is 2001 Avant), car failed MOT today on broken rear spring, spring coming tomorrow but thought I'd make a start getting the side panel off in the boot (to get to the strut top), have got it all off bar the top corner at the 'C' pillar, where it meets the cushion at the...

My rear washer jet packed up last week, just assumed something was frozen so kept trying it now and again, no joy, so tonight I decided to investigate further, found the culprit, a joint in the hose had popped apart, unfortunatly this particular joint was right above quite a large number of...

Where would I find the clutch bleed nipple on a 2001 1.9 TDi B5? Also what is the brake bleeding order? I've heard nearest to furthest, but is this from the master cylinder or ABS module? Cheers

I've got to change the feed hose from the pump to the rack on my mates '96 B5 TDi tomorrow, the pump end looks simple enough but what is the best way to get at the connection on the rack? I'm assuming through the wheel arch? does the plastic liner at the back come out without too much effort...

Hi folks Do I need to update the coding after fitting an aftermarket HID kit to my 2001 B5? I did a search but couldn't find any info specific to the B5. Cheers

I need to do the water pump on a 1.8T '99 A3, does the timing belt need to come off to get it out?

Well today I traded in my A4 against something a little, shall we say, hotter... 2006 ST-2, Very pleased with it, sorry about the poor picture, taken on camera phone when I first saw it, not had an dry weather to take any decent ones in!

Was at the Lavenham rare breeds motor show today and came across this little beauty... It's not a photoshop, promise! Acording to the spec sheet in the window it's had 4' 1" cut out of the middle!

Does my 2.4 V6 (engine AML) have pre-cats in the downpipes? and if so would the main cat be sufficient to still get through the emissions test at MOT time if the pre-cats were to be removed? Cheers

My mate had an HKS induction kit for an impreza going spare, I took a look at it and figured I could make something to fit it to my B5, so I did :) The adaptor... And the fitted article... The sound it makes is pretty awesome when on full chat, and pretty much silent when then throttle is...

Anyone know if it's possible to easily change the wiring on the fog light switches so that the fronts arn't linked in with the rears, i.e you can turn both on and off independantly. Cheers

Just a quick question, which of the interior trim inserts (if any) will fit either a pre or facelift B5? Reason for the question, I've recently changed from wood to ally and I'm going to sell the wood on ebay, just want to know if any of it will fit a pre-facelift b5, hence open it up to...

After my car had the baring and CV sorted last week the ABS has been playing up, the guy said he had to replace the sensor in order to change the CV (sensor was seized into the hub). Now my ABS loves to cut in as and when it feels like it, most favourably on dry tarmac under light braking...

Hey guys, Over the last couple of months or so I've been hearing a noise develop from the front passenger side wheel, it isn't a constant whine but rather a sort of whoomp whoomp whoomp (sorry, difficult to describe in text!!) noise, dependant on speed, is this likely to be the baring or the...

Any ideas how to improve the range of the key fob? I've changed the batteries in the fob and it didn't improve much at all. I've located what I think is the control unit (under rear bench) does it have and external aerial or is it internal, i.e would it help to relocate the unit somewhere...

Does anyone know of anywhere that sells the interior trim inserts (in the doors, across the dash etc.)? As I currently have the wood trim and I'm looking for something a little more sporty looking. Or, does anyone have a rough idea of price for a full set of trims (I'm not even sure what was...
