I believe Autotrader is now too overpriced. Pistonheads has always been good for me in the past,especially when seeling modified cars but when I put my A4 on there I had no genuine interest at all in 2 weeks. I then put it on eBay as a classified ad, same ad as pistonheads, same price and had...

I'm not sure but it may be worth looking on a site like towequipe and comparing part numbers for different makes of towbars for each model and see if any are used on both the Audi and VW

Here's my Votex kitted Avant with 18" Fox RS VR5 alloys

Mine suffers from it occasionally too, but only cracks a couple of times before it goes. Doesnt warrant me paying £90 for a new switch though.

I have 912's and was told when I got them that they were the replacement for the 452's as the 452's were being phased out. A year on and the 452's are still available I see so either they were that good that they still make them or there is a lot of old stock out there.

Give Ipswich Audi a ring and ask for Neil in parts. He knows his way around the parts system very well and has been able to source me Votex bits that others on here have been told werent available from other dealers.

Just coming back to this to update it for others info. The flat spot I experienced after initially fitting the exhaust appears to have gone now so cant pin it on the exhaust change.

I fitted the votex to mine. I was lucky enough to find votex parts on eBay but it took nearly a year to get the full set and I know a lot of that was through luck. Rough (from memory, dont quote me!) prices I paid were: Rear valance - new from Partsdepot on eBay £90 (make sure its the...

Just dont put them in the oven! I did on my first one and turned the corner of the clear plastic lens a bit white where it got too hot. After that I did it with the mrs's hairdryer which was plenty hot enough to burn my fingers aswell as soften the plastic and glue enough to get them apart...

What we did on my mates B5 was to firmly hold the connector together with a zip tie threaded carefully between the wires on each side and then pulled tight. This solved it on his.

I have fitted the DIS stalk on my Avant sport, as James says its quite easy to do but you will need vagcom for recoding. Also if you are looking for a secondhand stalk make sure you get one for an avant (has 2 wipers symbols) as the saloon one does not have the rear wiper function. Also look...

Or the other option is to go for the Votex kit which is what I did.

Did mine when I did the DIS retrofit on my B6 Sport and it was easy enough to do. Had the glovebox out, footwell kick panel and front nearside wheel arch liner out. Had to run a wire from pin 1 on the cluster through to the washer bottle where I wired it into the new connector I bought for the...

Also make sure you pick up another rear box hanger bracket and bolts and ideally also another heat shield and speed nuts to fit it.

Yes it can be done with VCDS, just adapt the value for idle speed slightly. I did mine for the same reason

Have you checked the timing? I.e line everything up, insert the locking pins etc? I ask as on my older non-pd 1.9tdi suffered from poor cold start running but only after changing the cam belt. The timing was only slightly out but it made all the difference to cold starts but other than that...

Changed both the thermostat and temp sensor on my 1.9TDi. Temp sensor is down the back of the engine, towards the left when standing at the front of the car. You will need to removed the boost hose to access it and reach your hand down the back of the engine between the engine and the...

You can definitely buy the clips separately as I got some from the stealers last year. I can try and dig out a receipt with part number if you like. If not phone Ipswich Audi and ask to speak to Neil on the parts desk, he's a great guy who knows where to look on the system for the Votex bits...

On a UK Avant it is definitely on the drivers (right) side in the rear quarter. Right at the very bottom below the sub/amp enclosure. I have removed the enclosure on mine so I know its there for sure.
