Gents Thanks for your replies and help. I will keep the revs up over 2k as much as possible wherever possible. max69vk, no calibration was done on the pressure sensor, just unplugged the existing, revved a load of soot out and then plugged the Eurocar pattern in...didn't know there WAS any...

Thanks Matt268uk and ab1702 I appreciate your help. I have already stayed legal and previously changed the dpf (Aftermarket not Pants Down dealer price!) so was shocked when, after 1 month, the filter light (and then limp mode and engine management light) came on. Unplugged the pressure sensor...

Hey Folks, This is a last ditch attempt to save my 2008 Sportback 2.0tdi 170 BMN engine code. I have had a patteren DPF replacement fitted along with the 2 sensors on the DPF (Car has done 165k). Car ran fine for 1-2 months until last week when the dreaded filter light came on. Did the usual...

My 2008 SE Sportback has 163k and the drivers seat feels a bit like sitting in a sandwich! Having seen many A3 seats on eBay for sale my question is will newer 8V seats fit an older 8P car without any mods required do you know? I have only manual adjustment on the front seats (No heating or...

Gents, Thank you all (Especially Ash187) for your kind help. Getting them sorted this weekend. Cheers

Ah that's great thanks Matt! I have a mate who is a lorry fitter (!) who has offered to help me replace them....haven't told him the "good news" about the bumper yet....not sure he will be quite as willing when I tell him... Are there any tips you may have (Hidden screws to look out for etc.)...

Hi Guys, FYI I just bought 'Neolux NX1S 35W PK32d-2' D1Ss from Motex for £49 each. Standard OEM output (4100k I think) and made by Osram. Anyone have a working link with pics or pdf of how to fit them please? The tutorial posted by smudge_don has dead pics and I have no idea how to fit...

Chaps, Can anyone confirm if my '08 *PA with Bi-xenons takes D1S or D3S please? What is the difference? I think I need to change the bulbs as the lighting is absolute crap! Or am i just spoilt from running a Seat FR with LEDs for a while before this? Very dim lighting in dark countryside, And...

Thanks to everyone who has replied. Tom5190 thanks very much...makes my 162k seem low mileage compared to yours! I believe mine to be the originals but I just returned from a rather bouncy 100 mile journey...let's just say that the suspension doesn’t exactly encourage spirited driving lol!

Having owned an A3 S Line 2.0 TFSI Quattro in the past and just about survived with my spine and bott in tact I have now (A few years on) gotten a 2008 Sportback SE. My question is will fitting oem Sport shocks and springs make a lot of difference to how it handles or should I just go for SE...

Hi Guys, Sorry to be sounding a bit of a dunce but this is only my 2nd post....so....If I want to replace the 4 spoke wheel on my 2008 8P Tdi 170 SE Sportback I only need to buy a 3 spoke (Of any part number, I dont need MFSW just standard), a new airbag cover to fit 3 spoke and just re-use my...
