    Tiger capacity battery?

    Are Audi owners men or women of straw? It's reassuringly expensive.

    Cost of updating SD card for satnav?

    You can save a fortune by installing Waze on your smartphone and fitting a ClearMount between the centre air vents. I use it on my Note9 and find it better than the Audi satnav. It's free, updates in real time and is supported by thousands of users updating it with info pertaining to hazards...

    Cold start problem - A3 2.0 TDi 170

    I sold my 57 170 in March 2014 having owned it from new. It had developed exactly the same cold starting problem. A year or 2 previous to that there was a recall for dodgy injectors. Mine was found to be one that needed all 4 replacing. Up until this point there was mever a problem. After this...

    Carjacked

    The Ghost is ok if you are not in the vicinity of the vehicle when it's being targeted. If it's on your drive and your new car won't start when they've just got your keys etc from your kitchen it will take them about 10 seconds to suspect the reason. What may happen next? Go figure... Personally...

    Facelift A3 not starting

    My iPhone 6+ checks for emails every 30mins. If I didn't use the phone at all, after a week it would only be around 70% discharged. So, it would need around 1.4amperehours to top itself up.

    Facelift A3 not starting

    In those circumstances there would be an increase in consumption. But, I couldn't conceive of anyone doing what you suggest. I could understand a second phone being left in a car on charge so it's never forgotten when you go out.

    Facelift A3 not starting

    An iPhone battery is around 1.9 amperehours. Even if discharged completely it will have no effect on a car battery as it charges. Once charged it will draw little or no current. The only way to check battery discharge is with a current meter. The current has to be flowing somewhere. If it isn't...

    Facelift Whats the latest thinking on Dash Cams

    I would go for the Thinkware F800 myself. It's due for release any day now in the UK. They have used a similar design to the F750 which was sensible. The F770 is an excellent cam system (we have both) except that removing it from the windscreen is a non-starter. Once the leads are plugged into...

    Security

    Regarding people not wanting their cars back after they've been thrashed and trashed. That is just what the pro thief doesn't do. The car is unlikely to be stolen from your home by boy racers who just want a bit of fun and would do that very thing. The risk/reward ratio involved in breaking into...

    Security

    Prowling is exactly what pro thieves do. They cruise the streets, especially in nice upmarket neighbourhoods looking for parked vehicles. They also appreciate that people who live in these areas are not always as careful with their property as they could be. They will check back more than once...

    Security

    People may like the keys in plain sight but the one thing that shouldn't be in plain sight is the car. Any high performance car should be garaged, or parked at the side or rear of a property behind solid gates high enough to hide the car. This alone will massively reduce the risk of theft. All...
