    Change of oil (manufacture) for 2.5 TDi?

    My 2.5 TDi is coming up for another service in a couple of thousand miles, it's been on a short service interval all it's life which is great, it's always had longlife oil but changed every 10k miles rather than 20k. It's on 145k now and I checked it today for cam wear (well what I could see...

    Multitronic gearbox behaviour

    Recently (like last weekend) we bought my wife a 2001 B6 2.0 avant with Multitronic, on the test drive all seemed ok, but my wife reported that it seemed jerky the other day, not being into cars that was the best description she could give me. So, I took it for a drive to see what she was...

    Fitting a B7 instrument cluster into my B6, VCDS needed?

    Hi all, I have an opportunity to buy a B7 instrument cluster for my car which has colour dis. I just want to know what's involved in making it work 100% with no issues?

    Can anyone recommend a short shifter for 2.5tdi QS?

    Hi all, I'd like to purchase a decent short shifter for my 2.5tdi Quattro Sport as I feel the throw is far too long on the standard shifter, especially with the first gear being such a short ratio I feel like I can't change gear quick enough from 1st to 2nd with a smooth transition, so I think...

    Am I missing something?....... The coil pack recall.

    I popped into Hatfield Audi yesterday to get a couple of parts, whilst I was in there I thought I'd take advantage of asking if my S3 has ever had the coil pack recall or is eligible for it. The guy took my chassis number and checked on his computer, he came back to me saying my car has...

    S3 service parts advice, oils, filters, etc....

    Just looking for some advice on servicing my s3. My car is relatively high mileage, it's a 2000 s3 with 155k miles under it's belt. The engine oil that is currently in it is Millers 0w30 fully synthetic which I'm not happy with, it's far to thin and watery for my liking and I want to change it...
