    Wanna know what effects your service interval?

    [ QUOTE ] You can see why you have to choose carfully whether to go with variable servicing if you don't do lots of miles. [/ QUOTE ] So what are you saying?

    1st Service cost for a A3 (2004) 2.0Tdi Sport

    Just a quick update! About 6 weeks ago, I visited Doncaster Audi, and they quoted £169 inc vat. I asked them to double check as it seemed very low compared to the local Oxford area who qouted me £231 plus vat. They insisted that this was correct. I was going to make a day of it and save some...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] More than half the price with Superchips, you can extend their 12 month guarantee to 24 months and they give you more power. [/ QUOTE ] Yes completely agree.....

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] Wooohoooo! sorry seem to have upset you a little there, I'm no engineer and not in the habit of advertising my qualifications or name dropping previous projects as you seem very happy to do, just merely referring to my own personal experience and passing on what I have been told by...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] another guy who lives in Ireland has just had his car S/C and he claims exactly the same power (194bhp) and also suffers the occasional clutch slip, I'm just guessing here but as me and Broadmarsh had both our cars done at the HQ and have similar total power outputs and I too have no...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] I have a superchipped PD140. It put out 153 and 155 bhp standard on two totally different RRs. Superchip has me at a claimed 194bhp - got it done last week. Driving normally the MPG is better, I filled from empty straight after the chip a week and a day ago and I still have a 1/3 of...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] Thats strange I asked yesterday and was told that they didn't open up the ECU!!!! Although it wasn't Danny that replied to me! J. [/ QUOTE ] Of course as we all know, a verbal answer is not quite the same as a written one where he has to put his money where his mouth is. I have...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    I have got the Ketchup ready for the hat! But..Perhaps I do not need it, as Oettinger are the approved tuner for Audi and COULD have the same hardware kit as an Audi dealer to change SOME settings inside the ECU that are sent to them on CD ROM. Some time ago I had a lumpy idle and it was...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] The dealers still cannot bypass the security inside the ecu, so they have to remove it from the car to get inside it, [/ QUOTE ] Are you sure? [/ QUOTE ] Absolutely..ask Supechips!

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] Agree S/chips do remap alot of cars via the mentioned procedure but they also utilise the OBD port where possible, my MKiv Golf was 'chipped' in this way. I think the discussion thread should now be renamed " OBD remapping for 2.0tdi, Is it possible ?" to which we all now know the...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    [ QUOTE ] Broadmarsh, I dont think anyone in this thread has said you can upload the new code through the OBD port but what has been said in another thread some where else on another forum is that superchips and RSD are now able to upload the code without opening up the ECU but it does need...

    2.0TDI - Anyone had a remap ?

    "Due shortly" and all the other "hopeful" phrases means "we must keep the punters guessing and it also makes us look professional along with the other tuners. If they ever crack the code and it is a big if, then your car is more at risk from the thieves.

    Speed camera detectors

    [ QUOTE ] The problem with PDA based camera detection is that they can't give you the average speed warning on SPEC's cameras that a dedicated device produce. Remember SPEC's camera's are the future, you can't see them, they monitor average speed between 2 or more points, they OCR your no. plate...

    Power socket in the boot!

    Sorry guys, I may have not explained myself very well in the original post! My thoughts were to have the Fortuna Bluetooth GPS receiver HIDDEN IN THE BOOT and have it on constant charge (whilst the power is on). This means I do not have to take it out of the car and recharge it after I have...

    Power socket in the boot!

    I undestand that some A3 2.0 Tdi Sports have power sockets in the boot. Obviously mine does not. I would like to fit some kind of power outlet to continuously power up my Fortuna Clip-on Blue Tooth GPS receiver, so that it can be out of sight. Does anyone have one fitted? If so, where...

    Mudflaps??

    I have them fitted. They are quite small, and on the face of it because they are only a few inches deep (not measured them though) they do not appear to be able to stop much. Having said that the front ones appear to allow some mud past about 2.5 feet back from them. If you understand what I...

    Plug in tuning boxes

    You would have to alter the turbo pressure as well to change the power curve! It has to be 7 increments in fuel adjustments...Cannot be anything else!

    [ QUOTE ] marriedblonde said: [ QUOTE ] Broadmarsh said: But we are talking about diesels here are we not? The 140 Bhp 2.0 Litre TDI to be precise. For the other VAG diesels as well as petrol engines, you can use the one click method, as the code has been cracked to use the OBD port. The...
