    ABS & ESP Lights Staying On

    the ESP light in no longer illuminated, so thats one down one to go. As S3Dave mentioned likely due to ice build up. I now have full control back of the ESP, the lights not on and the ESP button works again. Hopefully the same will happen with the ABS when i try it again later. Temporamental...

    ABS & ESP Lights Staying On

    I'll give it a day or two to see if it thaws out a little and maybe the lights will go off.

    ABS & ESP Lights Staying On

    Well, this freezing weather has just caused the same issue on mine this morning, not happy. ESP and ABS lights on. Took me 15 mins to get in the car it was that frozen, when i finally managed to get in and start it (via the passenger door!) both lights were on. I thought perhaps they would go...

    S-Line Wheel Tyre Size & Offset?

    Very nice, and i agree with you completely. Just to confirm they are 18" wheels on there right? Also, I kept reading that 8j 45ET is the lowest offset we can use with standard ride height without rubbing, looking at yours id say 40 would be fine even??? Id certainly like another few mm off the...

    Tyres

    Kuhmo Ecsta KU31 are worth considering, (not the 711's though as theyre terrible). Before my previous car (4.0 XJR) I had a Skyline which made 500bhp on the dynopack. I tried various tyres including Bridgestones, Pirelli, Toyo e.t.c. I found the best all round tyres (dry, wet, wear rate and...

    Car Polish what is best?????

    as a finishing product, FK1000p is hard to beat. Last far longer than autoglym and well priced. As above though, paint needs to be good to start with. "cant polish a ****". heres a few of my previous XJR (10yr old car). I used Meguirs quick detail, AG SRP and FK1000p to finish.

    Engine management light reset

    Had a coilpack break which has now been replaced. Car drives as it should now. Problem is the EML is still on. Im assuming its logged the fault in memory. Is there any way to reset it by disconnecting the battery or some sequence of button presses? If it requires an trip to Audi just to clear...

    Audi Goodwill

    hi pete, i was just reading your original post on this and my heart sunk. I bought an A3 3.2 v6 2004 2 days ago privately, and within a day it started doing the same as yours. Its full audi service history, no independents, and only 58k miles. Im gutted! I know its cheeky as ive just joined! but...
