Hi, Mine does this. I had the water pump replaced as normal with the timing belt and I got my garage to check the stat. There was nothing wrong with it so they told me not to worry. More likely the sender unit I'm told so may get that done eventually. As long as I know the engine is...

I had this before xmas. My indicator relay failed - the one for the hazard lights is seperate. As nilz18t rightly says the unit costs about £30 from a dealer and it resides behind the hazard button fascia, you will need to take the radio out as well in order to get it off; well, I found it...

Took it to my local garage the other week and they couldn't find anything wrong (the bitch didn't do it when they started it!). They reset the sensors and told me to see how it went. Today it did it again without me even touching the throttle. Eventually got it going. It sounds lumpy when...

I had a new MAF fitted about 12 months ago so I'd like to think its not that.

I've got these, due to the design of the roof which allows water to drip down when you open the door or window! Autoglym fabric wash has worked the best but the marks haven't gone away totally.

Hello Mate, Well, not sure I have an actual solution yet but you might be interested to hear that my old girl has had similar symptoms. Just the last few months, intermittently she stutters and tries to cut out at about 200rpm when starting up. The only way to cure it seemed to be to...

My temp guage rarely gets to 90. I've had the dash cluster replaced (it was generally faulty anyway), had the water pump replaced with the timing belt as usual, and I asked my garage to check the thermostat. He did and it was ok, he said it is obviosuly getting up to temperature and the fan...

Yep, Supersport is the manufacturer. I looked at custom made but ran out of patience trying to find a reliable place to do it! Hope you have better luck than I did. cheers!

Mine does this. Had the thermostat checked and its ok, had the water pump replaced with the timing belt in september so was told not too worry about it. Runs ok and heats up fine (judging by heat through heater). Sometimes fails completely for a while and then comes back to life. Been...

Alright mate. I have very recently just upgraded to a stainless steel cat-back system. It is a Supersport system - have a look at the photo. I'm very happy with it and it was a perfect fit - better than standard according to the gent that fitted it for me. Great value at £349 as well from...

Hi, Seasons' Greetings to all, first! I have a 51 plate 1.8T Sport well looked after and serviced etc. On very cold mornings, such as like we are having now, I occasionally have this small glitch. I don't think there is anything wrong per se. I think I read on here that these tend to be...

Oh the fickled finger of fate. I just got emailed a web survey from Audi which I have filled in (honestly) and asked for an explanation.... It will be interesting to hear their excuses. Though I expect it will be just excuses and a case of 'no it isn't...'

Well, this has been boiling in me for the last few weeks and its time to let it all out! I am furious. I thinks is ****** outrageous. I'm not saying all Audi dealers are like this; but I had a Ford before and had similar experiences with the main dealer. Its a long story but I took my 51...

51 plate A3 1.8T Sport. 113k.

Snap! Got it serviced today and my mechanic took it off as well. Must be more like a 'double safety measure' on the part of Audi putting one there. And to think Audi wanted £280 for a new one.....:rock::blackrs4:

Are you a criminal? Done something very bad? If so then the British Justice System is here to help and support you and make sure your victim is punished.

I took my cluster out and sent it off to one of these repair firms - they said it was beyond repair and when they sent it back all the immobiliser data had gone and the car wouldn't start. Had to get it recovered by a moody and ignorant raodside repair firms to the nearest Audi dealer who put...

Cheers mate. Stupid question, exactly what does the heat shield shiled heat from? What are the long term consequences of taking it off? What could get damaged?

Just a thought. My temp guage kept dropping and acting weird and it turned out to be the dash cluster. The fuel guage was already faulty. Your problem sounds oddly familiar - I kept thinking it was losing temp or something. Hope this is food for though, might not be this though, just saying!

Hi, I've known for a while my 2001 A3 1.8T Sport rattles on cold start up; while it was at the Audi 'Highwaymen' getting the dash replaced, while sniffing about to try and rip me off more, they gleefully pointed out that the Heat Shield on the Cat is loose (no doubt true) and wanted £400 to...
