    Window tinting on a lease

    So long as it's a good professional job and the tints are pretty OEM I doubt they'd even notice.

    Intermittent power loss/key not working. Any ideas?

    Hi guys, Haven't been here for a long time but a colleague has a problem with their A4 Avant SE TDIe 136 so I thought 'Where better to ask?' The car suffers intermittent power loss eg driving normally/pulling out of a junction/whatever and power just dies. The engine is still running and...

    GTI International

    I'm going down on the Sunday with the dad car and my mate in his A4. We're on the UK-Polos stand :)

    An excuse for a drive in the highlands

    I can recommend the A815/B836/A886/A8003 from Dunoon to Portavadie when you're late for the last ferry over to Tarbert and the last ferry over to Islay :) We had a little sat-nav malfunction (ie 'user error')

    What you DISLIKE about your Audi.

    You totally contradict yourself sat. And as already pointed out, where do you get these statistics from? You (and others) are taking this far too personally. Read the title of the thread again.

    What you LOVE about your Audi.

    I'll balance my comments in the 'dislike' thread. (Some over there seem to think the negative comments are a direct attack on them personally.) Anyhoo, I loved how mine looked. With the black grille and the paintwork shining the car looked aggressive and purposeful even when it was parked up.

    What you DISLIKE about your Audi.

    I do. In fact I bought one. It doesn't rattle and also comes with all the toys and more that I had to pay for or add on to my A3.

    What you DISLIKE about your Audi.

    It's all opinions sat and in my opinion my £24k Audi was thrown together. It's also my opinion that the A3 is nothing more than a Golf in a posh frock. Play nicely boys :)

    What you DISLIKE about your Audi.

    Over priced, poor build quality, the dealers.

    what speed to achieve best mpg?

    If the OP is after real world improvements I would have said bang on the speed limit for whichever road he's on. As someone else pointed out tyre pressures are important too.

    Lets have a change- Audi VS Alfa

    I think the 147 is being run out because a new model is just around the corner. I've a little experience of all this because the 159 was my first choice when I decided to chop in the A3. I went over to the Alfa dealers and their price (and brokers) was on a par with other cars in that bracket...

    You can delve into the settings and have all the speedo or just up to 90 and just mph or mph and kph. While I was there I also found that you can set the heated seats to automatic which I thought was quite good. TBH the settings function is like a mini-VAGCOM of fiddling possibilities. And to...

    Yep. 0-90mph on the speedo only. And just the mph not kph. All the other dials black out and 'die'. Quite useless but looks cool :)

    TBH the power is there. It's just getting used to the diesel power delivery again. Ride the wave of torque type thing :) And by the way guys, my Carbonio intake is still for sale. I'll even chuck in a slightly used K&N filter!
