So this morning on the way to work I changed gear at about 4000 revs to a loud whoosh/pop noise more aggresive than the usual Dv noise. Since then at low revs it sounds really rough and hunts around at idle nearly stalling before lifting the revs to 1200rpm. there is also a popping noise from...

I drove upto the lake district at the weekend and to my surprise the oil minimum warning light came on the DIS. The car was serviced in August and had 4.5ltrs of oil (5w30)put in. I have only covered 3900miles since then surely this is excessive? There is no visual signs of oil and I haven't...

I've just bought a set of genuine rstts but the seller had bought them to fit his a4 with 235/45/18 tyres on without checking the correct pcd. im aware this equates to 5% larger circumference than the current 225/45/17 on my s3. Will i get away with fitting them as they only have about 4-5mm...

on the motorway earlier the oil min light flashed up on the dis. got home to check the level of the oil to find the dipstick casing snapped clean across. i presume this is where the oil has disappeared to as its broken near the bottom? is it drivable as in to the garage? could any damage of been...
