    Cigarette lighter replacement.

    The VIN says it is a '99 but it has the fogs in the headlights and cigarette lighter at the bottom right of console so I presume it is one of the last pre face lifts.

    Cigarette lighter replacement.

    Mines a '99 so it's what to look for ie the facelift one replaces the pop up cup holders I believe.

    Cigarette lighter replacement.

    I have a pre facelift estate and my sat Nav charger and other adapters seem too small for the lighter. Has anyone replaced theirs for a different socket that the chargers eyc will fit in securely. All help and advice appreciated as usual.

    V6 Tdi Strange Vibration between 60 and 70 mph

    How hard is it to change the bushes on the rear beam as I'm looking at changing them for powerflex ones. Can't feel any noticeable play on either of the front wheels.

    V6 Tdi Strange Vibration between 60 and 70 mph

    I recently bought a '99 V6 tdi estate and it has a strange vibration through the body between 60 and 70 mph. I've had the original wheels rebalanced and the tracking and alignment checked.

    Which injectors for TDi

    I've got an A3 110/115 TDi which I've had remapped with the upsolute remap (140ish), it's also got a full Milltek turbo back exhaust system and I'll be fitting a green cotton panel filter shortly. When I had my Leon Cupra TDi I was told fitting larger injectors would help improve performance...

    How to get a new Audi Radio code....

    I've had mine done at the dealers at no cost, just booked it in on a saturday morning. Also had my Passat and Leon done previously at no cost either by the dealers. Might be worth checking with another dealer.

    Anyone heard of scorpion exhausts?

    I had one fitted to my Civic Sport it was very well made and sounded awesome when the VTEC kicked in, did give a little bit of boomy resonance when sat at motorway speeds, I rang up the suppliers who got me another back box and this got rid of the resonance. Only other thing I got with it were...

    Extra Load tires

    All my TDi's have run extra-load tyres as the TDi lump is slightly heavier and they are no more expensive if you shop around a bit.

    Which other Audi model wheels fit the A6

    I'm looking at getting a 1.9TDi either saloon or avant, avant is looking favourite but wouldn't mind a saloon either. I find the A3 isn't large enough now we have the little one and all his gear (pushchair etc) when we go away to visit in-laws and friends etc. I've looked at A4s but found out...

    A3 1.9tdi 110 tuning

    I've got the Upsolute remap on mine done by CCC Tech and I have no worries with it and it makes a world of difference to the cars performance. Not sure about a FMIC but some one on here will have experience of it. When I had my Leon Cupra TDi I know a lot of the guys were doing FMICs to there...

    Which other Audi model wheels fit the A6

    Cheers for that. How far do they stick out? If you put a straight edge from the top centre of the wheel arch down are they inside that part?

    Which other Audi model wheels fit the A6

    Does anyone have anymore info on this? I know that the A5 wheels are 5*112 but don't know what the bore or offset is. So don't know if they would fit on the A6 Cheers
