just to add.
the car was sold to a nice guy called kevin from croydon, he seemed as excited to be buying the car as i was upset at selling it!
i'm now rolling deep in a tdi bora... not quite as exciting but needs must to drop my fuel bills.
anyway this is adios, lots of useful info had on here.
i called these people and told them the details.
they sent me two boxed up ready to go drive shafts
i took my old ones out and fitted these
zero problems
i paid £220 delivered for both front shafts for a fwd 1.8t avant
Driveshaft UK - reconditioned and new CV Joints
it is strong for a stock model.
Given that it has a good specification i think it is fair and lets face it, it's priced to haggle.
Just fitted a complete set of drive shafts on friday too, she wants for nothing, i also have a set of track rod ends to go on this week.
I am looking to replace...
just tried lewis method.
when i press A and turn to on it says OK at the top and SERVICE! in the middle, this doesn't change after 10 seconds
if i release then pull B it proceeds to the time/date change mode.
Mine is a y Reg ie: 2001
am i missing something?
when i had mine done i got them to do the belt as well
this is a good time to do the water pump also.
I don't have the part number to hand. audi will give you the exact part.
Mine was £349 + vat! just for the part, i was £800 lighter by the time i was finished for that visit.
