The inevitable has finally happened after weeks of me putting off getting it sorted, the battery has been drained flat by my faulty brake light switch! I have looked on vagcat and I can't find the correct part number for the switch. Does anyone know what it is? Thanks Phil

I have just replaced the g65 sensor which was coming up with an open short to ground error and replaced it with a genuine new one. Whilst I had the old one off I could hear a lot of hissing coming from the valve I removed it from. This went on for about 10-15 minutes until I managed to find the...

About a couple of months ago my turbo when into limp mode, I assumed this was caused by sticking turbo vanes as the logs were indicating an overboost. I managed to clean the turbo with Mr Muscle turbo cleaner and this has 100% cured the limp mode problem. One thing that concerns me since the...

I went out to do some shopping last night and I thought I would take the long way home to clear out the lungs of the car. Full throttle on 2nd to the redline all good. Then when I got to third gear the car bogged down at around 3000rpm. I initially thought the clutch was slipping but it was just...

Just a quick question, what RPM does your car idle at? Mine sat at 882 RPM which I thought was a bit high so I was playing around with VCDS yesterday and managed to drop this to 800 RPM. Much quieter and must surely save fuel? I could drop it lower but then it starting running lumpy. Do you...

Does anyone know if the front fog lights are all the same for the various different bumper options? Are these difficult to replace as well? I need the smarten the front end up due to one being cracked. Thanks

Since I got the car I have noticed that when the engine is cold I can hear a ticking noise around 2000rpm which falls and rises with the engine speed. This eventually disappears after a few minutes of driving (usually longer when the outside temp is colder). I have a 130PD and I am fully aware...

I need to get my tracking done on my car after I bumped a curb... and I have been phoning round for prices. One place I phoned said some Audis are very difficult to do because it needs to be tracked at the top ??? and mine might be one of them? Is there any truth to this or does the guy not know...

Now that the weather is finally starting to look up I am determined to get my A/C sorted. I plugged VCDS into it and it came up with this: High Pressure Sensor (G65) 29-00 – Short to Ground I have looked into it and it's a fairly simple part to replace. Does anyone know what the part no...

Does anyone have the part numbers for the undertray clips? I'm doing an oil change at the weekend and I thought I might as well replace the missing clips at the same time. Also how many are there overall? Cheers, Phil

I have done nearly 500 miles over the weekend and my car has developed a slight thud/clunk/knock from the rear when either pulling away in 1st and letting off the throttle or sometimes when braking to a halt. I accidentally stalled the car at standstill when I let the clutch out with the car...

I know this has probably been asked a few times but I need to know exactly what parts I need to retrofit cruise control? I have a 03 Sport which already has full DIS just not cruise. I'm going to attempt to install this myself as I have VCDS already. Cheers Phil

I'm about to order a set of new rear discs for my 2003 FWD 1.9TDI 130 There appear to be two options the 245mm or 255mm discs. Does anyone know what size discs were fitted to my model? I don't want to take a wheel off just to find out! Cheers Phil

I have just completed a 800 mile round trip on my Audi and to be honest I found the ride really hard and uncomfortable. Cruising at 70+ on motorway showed up any slight imperfection on the road and car seemed to crash and jitter over bumps rather than damp them. I personally don't mind a...

Hi I found out last weekend that the intercooler hose on my 1.9 TDI 130 AVF has split. The part number is 8E0145834Q which has been apparently superseded by 8E0145834AR according to Audi and it costs nearly £164 quid! Does anyone know where I can source a cheaper alternative? I'm pretty...

Hi guys, I have recently brought a 105K A4 130 Sport Saloon and I was testing the handling out last weekend on one of my favourite stretches of road in Devon. I wasn't pushing the car massively hard but I noticed when I turned in quick the rear end felt really lose and unsettling. The suspension...
