Got car booked in Monday (A4 130 TDi Saloon) for 4 new tyres. Also want to get the tracking done at the same time. Garage thats doing the tyres have quoted £30 to do the tracking if it needs adjusting plus another £30 to adjust the rears if they are out!! Surely you don't adjust the rears as...

Mines intermittent. Ocassionally doesnt work. Fuses? Not sure whether central locking is fused?

Yeah I deffo tend to stay away from budgets from past experience. Noisy, poor grip. This is first time in ages have had to buy tyres due to having company cars so not really up to date with what's decent now etc etc.

Hi all, just after other peoples views. I have noticed that now you are given an energy rating style sticker when it comes to buying tyres, which indicate fuel efficiency, wet grip and noise rating... does anyone use these when considering their next tyre purchase, or are these stickers just a...

with regards to the egr, will an egr blank improve things slightly? I was going to do this and clean intake manifold. What about things like coolant temp sensor/thermostat problems? I've seen a few posts about this but not sure how this would affect mpg??

Hi all. I have an a4 1.9 tdi 130. I am now approaching 100k miles, and have noticed my mpg isn't what it used to be. Was normally averaging about 53-56mpg....but am now only acheiving 46mpg. is there any maintenance or servicing I can do that may help bring those figures back? Also due to it...

ok cool cheers. whats best way to go about this? engine running and trace all the hoses till i hear one leaking or is there an easier way i.e. spray hoses with fairy liquid solution and watch for bubbles??

Hi all, I have a tdi sport 130 saloon. The other day I was informed by the old man, that when he was following me, i was chucking out a bit of black smoke under acceleration. Also i have noticed that it is quite noisy under acceleration or downshifting (i.e. it bellows a bit). This is my first...

Had an issue with the remote locking. Eventually had to get in and out with the key in the door. replaced key fob batteries and all was good for about a week, and now and again the fob doesn't seem to unlock or lock the car when I request it to. just wanting to know if there is another fault...

Yeah. It bellows under acceleration. Foot to the floor or quick acceleration. Any ideas?

Ahhh brilliant cheers. Where can you get them from? Dealer only?

Where would that be located and is it something that can be replaced quite easily?

Yeah sounds like a deep air suck sound. Noise is quite noticeable from in the cabin. Quite loud.

I have a 1.9 tdi sport. Under acceleration, there is a deep low pitched bellow. It has recently had 12 months MOT put on it, so wouldn't be a blowing exhaust, plus it doesn't sound like a raspy exhaust blow. Would it be an intake hose loose somewhere along the line? Where would be best place to...

I have an Audi chorus cd changer/cassette head unit. Outside of town, picks up strong signal radio stations ok, albeit a bit fuzzy. As soon as I head into town, the signal just drops completely. This is on radio stations radio 1 and radio 2. Would it be a problem with my aerial, or connector...

Nope. Econ light just stays on unless I turn whole thing off completely.

Yes econ light illuminates. Well still have 3 month warranty with the car so will get them to look at it. Cheers for the help.

Checked DIY stickies and followed procedures but still no joy. Just have ---- miles ---- service Or something like that lol.

Hi all. Been on here for a while. Had a b5 a4 until yesterday. Now have a 1.9 tdi sport. Brilliant car, but only thing so far is cannot reset spanner light. Tried the spanner button with the 0.0 button but no joy. Do I need to plug this in? Also the other thing is air con not working. There...

Are there any alternatives to using the green mineral pas fluid? Reason I ask is I need some for Monday evening when I drive back to Milton Keynes. With it being bank holiday, my regular motor factors are shut till Tuesday. Halfords stock some fluid and it says suitable for merc, VW and other...
