I was wondering if anyone could help me, as I have no idea what's causing this. When accelerating, in third gear, at around 3500rpm the engine seems to suddenly hold back, and then carry on. It doesn't do this in other gears. The MAF was replaced just over a year ago. I've also blanked off the...

Did anyone know that the speed limit has been reduced for vans? On a single carriageway signed at national speed limit, it is now 50mph for vans, and on a duel carriageway it's 60mph, even in a car derived van with rear windows. I found this out today from a police motorcyclists that a mate and...

I was just wondering if anyone knows how to get over the automatic tensioner for the handbrake? I've just put new calipers and discs on the rear, and spent ages and ages bleeding the brakes, and now I can pull the handbrake up about 25-30cm to stop the car rolling sometimes, whereas before it...

A Black 3 series BMW, 58 plate. Looked nice, which is why I saw it at first, but then saw the double rear view mirror and the lights in the grill. Very nice vehicle :yum:

Why do people need to stay in the middle lane of the motorway, when the inside lane is clear for nearly half a mile, and they're not overtaking? They don't pay any attention to what's around them, apart from the few yards in front. If they need to overtake, they indicate, and then just pull out...

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the ecu on a 2000 2.5 tdi 150bhp engine for the 2.5 180bhp engines ecu? or is it a completely different layout for the different engines. I ask this as a mate of mine has just bought an allroad 2.5tdi 180, and the engine looks exactly the same, and...

I have seen an Audi A4 B5 facelift (T reg) 2.5tdi Quattro in a local auction. It seems to have everything bar leather interior that I can see. It has 87k on the clock. I was wondering how much anyone would pay for it? roughly?

Last night, the display for my clock and thermometer just turned red, as in backlight, but no info. I was wondering if anyone else has had this, and how to rectify this. It's the display inbetween the speedo and the rev. counter. Got a mind blank at the moment, and can't for the life of me...

as the title says, and how do you find them (not as in the shop, or on the internet, lol)? Are they any good?

I know there are a few posts on this, but need a bit of help as I'm unclear on the exact options. As you can see below, i've got the facelift 2.5tdi, and am needing new brake discs and pads. I'd like to go a bit bigger, but not sure which way to go, either RS4 for both front and rear, or RS6...

As it says in the title. It feels like this when I hit 3000rpm, and is particularly noticable when accelarating up hill. It's only just started feeling like this, and I have a service in another 2k miles. It's done 107k. Any sugggestions would be gratefully recieved :)

Hi, my alpine 7998r has just decided to give up. It's the phantom facia one, where it's supposed to slide out and up, or back in when the ignition is off. What's annoying is that it has stopped sliding out, just grrrs a bit then turns on to classic fm (which although would be good for mafia...

hi, does anyone know of a decent detailer in the south west (exeter) area. I've read the detailing threads, and want to get into it, but really don't trust myself so need a bit of a bump start with getting rid of swirls etc. Thanks in advance, Nick

Hopefuly someone can suggest something for this: I bought my car (B5 2.5tdi), last year, and it used to sit at bang on 90c but now, 30,000 miles later, it won't really go above 75c (even in summer). I was wondering if this is a blockage. Also, this is probably just me imagining this, but my mpg...

HI, I'm fairly new to this, so appologies if I have put this on the wrong forum, but I've found a 2004 A6 S line 3.0tdi for £8200. It has 42k on the clock, and looks mint. Does anyone know if this is a usual price, or too cheap? Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this for me.
