Hi everyone, I have a 53 plate A4 cab with Bose and the rear offside speaker is not working. I'm not sure how to get the rear side panel off - can anyone advise? Also, does anyone have any suggested likely causes of the problem? Thanks in advance for your replies! D

LMAO - that's too funny evilscotsman. Tints IMHO are far better than blinds. They are more effective at reducing UV and heat than blinds. My currrent A4 cab isn't tinted, but my old A4 Avant had legal minimum on fronts with a shade lighter than full limo black on the rears. The reason for...

Thanks guys, I'll order the parts and get the job sorted. As always, I appreciate your advice.

My glovebox light isn't working (with side lights on or off). Thought I'd change the bulb but it's fine. I put a multimeter across the bulb terminals and there's no current. I checked the fuses & all seems well, so wondered whether its the switch? However, I can't readily locate the switch...

Hi all, Sadly I've been unable to rouse the starter :( Have contacted local specialist who can fit new one this week. Just the minor problem of getting the car to him for Monday morning to tease over now... Hmmm. Will report back on this thread if it turns out to be anything other...

Thanks Quattrojames, I'll give that a go first thing tomorrow morning (it'll be too dark by the time I get home tonight) No idea where the solenoid is but I'll have a rummage and see if I can find it! I'll let you know how I get on!

Hi Nickynibbles! The engine doesn't turn over at all, just the starter clicking. I don't have Vagcom unfortunately. It is the multitronic. I'll pick up a Vagcom lead from ebay tonight - although I'm not sure how competent I will be with using it, nor how long it will take to arrive! I...

Hi all, please offer your best suggestions... I have a 3.0 petrol auto A4, I do quite a few miles (160 yesterday, 500+ so far this week) Car has 80k on clock and is 4.5k from next service. So, car wouldn't start. I checked that I hadn't left anything switched on or plugged in, but there...

Has E38 got a drag strip?

E38 or VW action at Santa Pod? Both same weekend. Nominal difference in ticket price. But which one is better and why? (VW action party theme is pyjamas this year...) Let me know your thoughts! PS would love a meet in East Anglia or North/East London.

On my old B5 Avant I was replacing bulbs all the time! I remember on one occasion I switched my dipped beam on and they both blew together, put my front fogs on (it was pre-face lift so fogs were in headlamp cluster) and one of them blew. So I ended up driving 25 miles home on sidelights and one...

Hi BHDSeller, I noticed that nobody replied to your question yet, so here goes (without pictures) The black cylinder that you removed is in fact a red herring. Put that back on, get yourself a philips screwdriver and unscrew the screw head that is in the centre of the cylinder when it is...

Thanks for the links Derek, JB7_uk can you let us know what comes of your USA bound email please. We may yet find our Holy Grail - the ever elusive 18" 5x112 ET35 RS4 style rims!!! Who said anything in life was easy....

I've read and heard lots of good reports for Toyo tyres. However, my preference has been for Avon ZZ3's. I'm now on my second set and have been very satisfied with their performance. If I go for new replica 18's I'll probably go for a tyre package too. In which case I may give Toyos a try...

Thanks Andymac, you beat me to it!!!

Hi JB7_uk Just to let you know, as per <font color="green"> madkebab's </font> post and <font color="green"> Olly_K's </font> follow up in this thread, apparently original RS4 alloys have never been made for the A4. True RS4 alloys have an offset of ET20 as the RS4 has a wider track and...

<font color="green"> Evening chaps. Tyrant, I've sent you a PM re your rims. Still looking for advice from anyone on potential problems with lowering quattros. (See earlier post #149568 - 11:18 11/02/2005 ) Look forward to hearing from anyone!!! Cheers, Derek. </font>

Am I right that it's not advisable to lower the quattro models? I seem to remember reading a thread on this in the distant past (although I now can't find it). I have sports suspension anyway, but I heard lowering quattros can cause premature failure of the running gear??? Any comments...

I'm afraid I don't know the answer to AndyMac's question. You may be able to use the gallery once the upgrade is completed? Guess its a question for the administrator. Fortunately I don't get the adbots as I have pop-ups blocked on my explorer. This is certainly <u>a</u> method of doing it...

This might work better:- Takes less time to upload the page and if you click the image you should get a larger image?!
