    95 A4 1.8 Auto gearbox dilemma...

    My gf's A4's automatic gearbox is dying, it won't go over 3rd gear and when it tries to engage above that gear it'll behave as if the clutch is half catchin and the rev would shoot up but the car doesn't go faster than 50 at best at possibly 8000rpm. We took it to an auto transmissions...

    poll: Mozilla vs internet explorer

    Well as much as I hate MS and IE, I do have to point out that you can fiddle around with IE's options and you don't have to worry about adware and popups. I run zone alarm pro and norton antivirus and have never had any problem. You just need to be sensible. However, Firefox crashes often when...

    poll: Mozilla vs internet explorer

    With the cutting edge web technologies (svg anyone?) I use for work and the better JS support, I find IE the only one that works good enough. The others are either too slow or incomplete. I hate MS, but I have to put up with IE.

    Battery bay cover?!

    It is suprising the early ones don't have that as water can just soak the entire bay... which is what I think is causing the alarm setting itself off when it's wet... a bit stupid really...

    Battery bay cover?!

    Hi, my girlfriend's 95 A4 1.8 Auto does not have a tray covering the battery bay etc, is that by design? My 2000 A4 1.8TSQ has a cover and I went to Audi they couldn't find the part number for the 95 model so was it never there in the early models? Its Clifford Concept 100 is going funny...

    S4 vs 3000GT

    Yes, I must admit the class factor is a major difference. I personally love the supra and the gtr (not a big fan of 300zx) but the amount of torque from the gto is rather stunning compared to the supra and the gtr (33/34) is not cheap. So for now a GTO seems like a good cheap transition into...

    S4 vs 3000GT

    > p*ssing all over it in the wet Do you mean the 4wd? The GTO has that too and twin turbo charged... I've not been in an S4 before but the GTO blew me away, the kind of pace (and the noise!) just makes my 1.8TSQ look like a slug. I don't do a lot of miles, I suspect it'll only be 5k a year...

    S4 vs 3000GT

    Had a go in a 3000GT (actually imported GTO) over the weekend and man... what a car!!! Has anyone tried that out? How does that compare to the S4, and I mean say a 99/00 3GT and S4, as they're costing about the same. The 3GT has 300bhp under the hood and it sprints to 60 in 5.46s, in stats the...

    Insurance issues

    Hi all, was just wondering if there is a price threshold for 3rd party cover? Or does it depend on what group it is? As I might be getting a 2nd hand import as a fun car but just want to insure it for 3rd party fire and theft. Looking at about 4k, is that too high to be eligible for that?

    Just out of curiosity, my 2000 A4 1.8 TQS has climate, do I still use water to fill up the coolant tank? Cheers, Jules

    Got my S3 chipped today...for FREE!!!!!!!!!

    I think the Audi technicians in my area definitely won't notice anything. Girlfriends 95 A4 had the coolant warning light on one day on the way to the Audi dealer for some work, so we asked them to check that too whilst they had the bonnet open. They failed to spot that the coolant tank was near...
