    Unlocking the ****** car !!

    Open your front passenger door. Look where the catch for the lock is, you should notice a little round black plastic cap with a grove cut into it (it may have long fallen off). If you pop it off, you can insert you key into the hole and turn. This will disengage the anti hijack lock, so you dont...

    A4 Cab door/window in the ice

    Lol! The coldest Ive ever got the roof down was about 10oC. That was around this time last year got a few funny looks. But had the heater cranked up to 26 on footell setting and was quite warm!

    A4 Cab door/window in the ice

    Dont worry mine does it as well. last winter the window would not drop at all on a few occasions. You just have to be gentle when shutting the door because the window will sit slightly on the outside of the roof material. But after a few minutes with the heater on, open and close the door and...

    Tyres - What do i go for?

    The Conti Sports are a very good tyre. Great in the wet and good value. I got them fitted on all corners, they have never let me down even in the bad weather at the beginning of the year.

    Poor sound from RNS-E in B7 A4 Cab

    I recently upgraded from a single DIN chorus 2 to the RNS-E. I have a B7 A4 Cab. To me, the sound in the Cabriolet has always been good. Not outstanding but quite adequate. The Chorus setup could be turned up quite loud with very little distortion. Since I got the RNS-E installed no matter...

    So now I have a RNS-E...

    Ok that's good to know. I was worried it might just be eye candy! Will defiantly get the 2010 disk. Thanks for the input!

    So now I have a RNS-E...

    (well I will have by Monday!!) I finally took the plunge and arranged for the RNS-E to be fitted:yahoo:. I've been toying with the idea for months! I currently have a single Din set up with a chorus 2 for my B7 cab S-line. So I paid for the full retrofit. I used this company Car...

    De badged!

    On my Cab 1.8t S-line It came debadged. Just the Audi rings and the S-line on the side. And yes, I may have told the odd lie saying that it is a 2.0T I mean how do you explain to a chick that a 1.8t is as powerful as a 2.4V6... sorry:whistle2:

    B7 Cab 1.8T vs 2.0T

    Dont get me wrong Im was more than happy with the 1.8t, the engine does have power however the lag is the thing that will bother you the most. You will put you foot down at the lights and it will launch but then do very little until the revs kick in, in second and third, but then it starts...

    B7 Cab 1.8T vs 2.0T

    Thanks T.T. Im doing my research for the remap. By the way do you have to declare a remap to your insurance? And does it greatly affect the premiums?

    B7 Cab 1.8T vs 2.0T

    Thanks for your feedback guys much appreciated. The 1.8T does go after a while, and especially if your are already moving. Its just when you are standing still and you put your foot down it launches but then kind of lags until you get to 3rd... But I have never driven a turbo car before this so...

    B7 Cab 1.8T vs 2.0T

    I just wanted to know what peoples opinion concerning the two engines. I had my B7 S-line cab 1.8T since November. When I first drove is I thought it went some (having come from a 1.6 99' A3 with REALLY HEAVY 18" Nuvalari reps it was like a F1 car!). Now I'm not so sure that its that quick...

    De-badging A4 B8

    I did this on my old A3. Heat up with hairdryer until the gum holding badge on is really soft. I then used an old credit card and GENTLY slid it between the badges and the body. There will be some residue heat up again with hairdryer and prise off with fingers. There will be a shadow the same...

    Sounds like the problem I was having. I got a b7 Cab. I went on a motorway journey and the trip said i had 40 miles left in the tank. The guage was just passed the fist red line. Anyway parked up for 20 mins. Tried to start it up and it refused to start. called the rac. (the last thing I would...

    Help B7 Cabriolet wont start!

    Thanks for the feedback guys, its all sorted now:rockwoot: The RAC guy came and and had a look. The D.I.S. said that there was 40 miles left in the tank and the guage was just pased the red line but by no means empty. It was also parked on a steep hill (nose facing down). So when the RAC guy got...

    Help B7 Cabriolet wont start!

    No filled up with petrol before motoway journy. Its just so random. One moment fine the next refusing to start... I think your right because my first thought was the fuel pump. There is also a dash light that says EPC but I cant tell if it will go out, cause it wont start. thanks for replying.
