just use a genuine vag filter, either audi or tps, (trade part services) although not all tps branches will deal with the public. As for oil, i just use Quantum.
PCV is easy to do, it sits just under the engine cover, it's a couple of bolts. The part is around £40. The fuel cam follower wears, if you Google rtech tfsi all of the common issues will show up. Again it's easy to swap, you need to undo a couple of pipes, release the pressure from the fuel...
don't forget the fuel cam follower, athough the engine is belt driven so don't think the tensioner is a problem. The dv and pcv should be changed though asap.
i feel your pain working in the rain, i've just spent n hour in it swapping a fuel hose on a 306 hdi, it connects the filler neck to the tank. my only shelter was the wheel arch.
Anyway our b7 gained apple carplay. i'm quite impressed with it, although 30 minutes after getting it all in the...
I'm toying with the idea of an S4, i feel that now is the time to cross a V8 off the bucket list, i'm currently running about in a Cooper S clubman that I love but feel I need to get something bigger and automatic.
We also have a mk1 TT Roadster and a B7 TFsi auto ..
So for those that own or...
Uniroyal rain sport 3 for me, I have them on the mini, they were on the Saab and they will go on the TT. They will go on the a4 too unless I go for budget nexens
I thought the 2.0 tfsi engine was a good lump and after owning a Leon Cupra I know how well they go, but after reading about oil pump, pick up pipes and balance shaft issues I'm half tempted to not bother with the A4 I'm about to buy for the wife. I'm tempted to just put it on eBay and not...
Haven't done anything ..... We'll I guess if the wife likes it - but she said she wanted a cheap automatic -albeit fiesta sized.... She's getting an A4 2.0 tfsi multitronic ... SE. It's grey and on 19's and has got aftermarket led look lights - I think they might be coming off. Oh actually I...
mine was crap, it averaged 37 mpg or there abouts, my previous golf was much better. I don't think short trips and diesels are a good combination if i'm honest and the DIS was hopeless it was quoting an average of 44mpg.
you can probably use your exisitng audi badge but yes you will need an sline badge if you don't have one already. It just clips in, postage will be by interlink assuming your within standard shipping zones :)
yeah I can get a pic up sometime tomorrow, its an Sline grill but does not have the audi or sline badge with it as they went with the car ( i had a caracutare one) but does have the chrome surround on it
It looks like this though ...
i paid £60 to have mine replaced and that included the parts, undoing the hub nut can be tight and getting it back done up can be just as bad. If its been undone before you might want to change the stretch bolt too.
