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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Hi there. Just noticed my heater display has just started to flicker. It goes off occasionally but a quick jab gets it illuminating again. Is it just a case of removing it and cleaning contacts? of so, how do I go about removing it? Cheers.

I have an 97 A4 and some of the dials aren't illuminating, including the speedo needle. How do I go about removing the clocks so I can replace the bulbs. Also should there be a light on the dash for when you have headlights on? That isn't illuminating neither. Many thanks.

Hi there. Recently acquired an A4 1.8 20v. Been great up till about half hour ago. Driving home, I lose all power steering. Pop the bonnet and check reservoir and the level is down and bubbling and steaming. Further inspection reveals fluid all over the under tray. Do these have a common...
