    Decent mechanic or technician

    Good morning all. Are there any decent mechanics or technicians on here who live or work in South Yorkshire. I may have the dsg service and cam belt done on my car but can't really justify main dealer margins. Thanks

    Facelift Cambelt change, Audi prices & underwhelming Indie advice

    For my 2.0 tdi my local Audi quoted me £1200 over the phone for the privilege. I went in to dealer and the quote dropped to £799. Bizarre.

    Air bag decals

    Good evening chaps/chapettes. I have a 2014 a3 and the audi emblem on the steering wheel has lost 80% of its chrome. The ring surrounding it is also looking a little scruffy. Audi tell me its an airbag replacement only, yeah right. Surely there must be a way to resolve such a crumbly airbag...

    drl bulb removal

    Hi. It's seriously very easy once you have the technique. I've small hands so it was ok for me. For example using the drivers side lamp once rear cover is off I kinda dug my right hand in and located the bulb holder. Once it was in my hand it was a simple turn anti clockwise and pull. Out came...

    drl bulb removal

    Hi all. Just wanted to update you on this. The bumper doesn't need to be removed at all. It was my technique causing the issues. I ordered new bulbs and fitted them in minutes. The above video really helped. Thanks again.

    drl bulb removal

    It's a 2008 first of face lift. They aren't xenon lamps either. I can grab the bulb holder but it's a chore to do much more. They seriously haven't produced a car that needs bumper off to change a bulb. ???
