    Broken Data Module

    Took delivery of an 8V S3 a few months back. For search purposes, I encountered a problem with the Data Module at the same time as my 3 months Audi Connect ended, appears to be complete coincidence. The car failed to pick up that a SIM card was in the slot and every time I went into the...

    Sat Nav Map updates - SD Card?

    Just picked up a 2011/2012 A6 with the SD card nav unit. The maps are marked as 2011 and wondered if the only way of getting uptodate maps was to pay the dealer a stupid pile of cash? I found some ebay sellers referencing activation or something.

    Waving goodbye to the B7 family

    I haven't really been active on the forums for a while but just wanted to pop in to say I am moving on from B7-land after putting a deposit down on a 3 year old A6 S-Line. Be sad to see the old dog go but she is over 10 now.

    H&R Springs back to stock or alternative?

    Got H&R springs fitted to my A4 but over the past few months they have driven me mad. Just a bit too low so have skimmed it a bit on a few high speed bumps and the ride is awful. First off, seeing as I've ditched the springs, anyone know the part numbers for S-Line genuine springs? Or are there...

    Screw appeared in the footwell

    Got in the car today and noticed a screw lying in the driver side footwell right next to the door. I cannot find where it has come from so wondered if anyone had an idea. It is black with a washer around it and is a cross-head rather than a torx. I've had a look around the door card but all...

    Under Body Heatshield

    Noticed a rattling noise from beneath the car, started to panic slightly but had a look tonight and one of the heat shields has corroded around the bolts. Managed to get it off. Does anyone know whether you can run your car without it or is it not a good idea? Any rough ideas on the price?

    Engine Cover Badge and washers

    More for the search engines but the part number for a replacement Audi badge for your engine cover is: 4H0 103 940. You will also need 4 washers to hold it in place, part number is: N 909 625 02

    Rear bumper strip

    I've got some bubbling on my rear bumper strip. I was going to sand it down and apply a wrap but rather than the standard carbon fibre mockup, which would look wrong on my chrome car, was going to go for Sterling Silver Scotchprint so it was similar. Anyone used this as I just want to check the...

    How to: Remove instrument cluster for the B7

    I have a red cluster, part number: 8E0 920 950S The top part of the LCD fades when it is warm outside so I wanted to see how the LCD is connected. I’ve seen a write-up for a Cab and a B6 but it was slightly misleading. You need a set of Torx screwdrivers, flathead screwdriver and a small...

    Have you done anything to your kick/sill plates

    My sill plates look a little tired and the aluminium part is bubbling. Has anyone done any mods to them other than replacing them?

    New EGR problem and front bumper problems

    So had an issue driving back from Ripon yesterday where the car had big problems accelerating around the 2000 rev mark. Engine light came on. Luckily B5Nut was in and VCDS showed a fault with the EGR. Only cleaned it a year ago so thought it was odd. Took it off this morning and the main black...

    Air Filter Housing Lug

    Was checking the state of my air filter and noticed the lug which holds the air filter housing to the wing is a bit worn and loose. Anyone know what the part number is? It's a piece of plastic which fits into the wing and a plastic inner which goes through the housing into that lug.

    Changing Rocker Cover Gasket - 2.0 TDI

    Just had a call from the dealers as my car is in for a service and MOT. They've mentioned there was a small bit of oil coming from the rocker cover, nothing to worry about but they had to mention it. They said it's likely to be the gasket needs replacing but I should check it in a few months...

    A3 Sportback spotted driving like a prat

    It enraged me so much I thought I'd post it just in case the driver happens to be a forum member. Driving on the M5 today and witnessed an A3 sportback (SE trim I think), silver, VRM: MA60 NWY driving like a complete idiot! This guy gives Audi drivers a bad name and nearly caused several...

    Faded top of DIS when weather is warm - anyone able to fix?

    Noticed it last year, when the weather is warm the top of my DIS doesn't display. I believe it is the solder which connects the LCD screen. Audi will try and charge me for a whole new cluster which I'm not going to do. Anyone local (County Durham/Newcastle/North Yorkshire) area fixed this before...

    Rear Seat Fixings

    Removed my rear seat bench as I keep hearing a rattling coming from somewhere in the back. Managed to remove with ease and found everything from stones, sweets to a small family of tribbles. I know you are meant to replace the grommets which hold the seat in place but I can't get the damned...

    Fracking car!!! EGR Cooler Blown Off

    Mainly to vent my frustrations but I now need to fork out over £400 as my car thought it time for a large bill. Set off from work, after a minute a huge popping noise and a terrible, and I mean terrible, blown exhaust noise. Luckily a decent indie is round the corner and managed to limp the...

    Anyone know how to remove the driver side door lock

    I've nearly managed to get my rattling door mechanism out but one part escapes me. There is a metal wire/rod that attaches the door latch to the inside of the main door handle. It is held in place by a white plastic collar and at the bottom a yellow and black clip. It's a tight squeeze in there...

    Door Rattle Coming from the Door Lock Mechanism

    It's been driving me mad for a few months, there is a faint rattle coming from the driver's side door. On closer inspection it appears to be coming from around the lock mechanism, you can hear it when you crouch near the door and open and close it. I've taken the door card off and disconnected...
