    Thoughts on this service history please!

    Thanks a lot for the tip - that worked out well. Sent them an email and got a reply back within a few hours with full service history, including a Brake Fluid change and Interval Inspection in November 2015 so that's allayed my fears somewhat!

    Thoughts on this service history please!

    I'm just in process of swapping my 56 plate A3 for an A4 due to a larger family these days and have spotted what looks to fit the bill - a 12 plate A4 Avant Quattro with 60k miles. However, the service history on it is August 2013, November 2014 and then nothing. Should this lack of continued...

    What to get done on service for 67k 2006 2.0 TDI?

    Sorry for my ignorance about this but my previous cars have all been bangers that never had regular service intervals. Got the service indicator lit on my 2006 2.0 TDI so time to book it in. I'm assuming an independent will be okay for a car for this age with 67k on the clock? Got a garage...

    Up arrows directs heat/cool to top of dash. Down arrows directs heat/cool to footwells. Middle button directs heat/cool to centre console vents.

    2006 sportback ipod connection best kit?

    Can't tell any difference between it and direct CD to be honest. Decent quality MP3s on your iPod obviously.

    2006 sportback ipod connection best kit?

    I've got mine set up on a simple aux input and cradle. Since you don't get much info on-screen anyway and the iPod is mounted right next to the HU I didn't need a full iPod connector. More info in this thread...

    Stutter between 20mph and 30mph

    Some decent info in that link thatnks bambam. Although in that thread the stutter seemed to occur when the turbo was kicking in, in my case it seems to happen when I'm just cruising at steady speed in a 30mph zone. Suggests filters and MAF cleaning might solve it. Have just had a Google for MAF...

    Stutter between 20mph and 30mph

    Anyone got any ideas what might cause a 2006 2.0 TDI to stutter between 20mph and 30mph when in 3rd and 4th gears? Revs are usually around 1500 - 2000 when it has a stutter, almost like it's too low a gear. Only seems to happen early on in journeys and goes away if the car has been run for...

    This Concert II is an ISO connection, right?

    I got it from Dynamic Sounds on Ebay - though they have a regular shop online too. Doesn't look like they have any of the Connects2 Aux-In ones on Ebay right now. This is the same thing but with an iPod connection at the end...

    This Concert II is an ISO connection, right?

    I just used one of the Connects Aux-In adapters, works fine. I have my iPod Touch mounted on a Brodit cradle, right next to the HU, works good. Didn't really see the point in paying extra for the Connects2 Ipod adapter as it doesn't charge the iPod so would only really give me the benefit of...

    This Concert II is an ISO connection, right?

    Thanks for the clarification. Shame as I had a chance to pick up one of the Connects2 kits pretty cheap but was for quadlock only. Will pick up an ISO one from Ebay instead.

    This Concert II is an ISO connection, right?

    Still getting used to this... this is an ISO connection on my Concert II right? I'm looking for a way to get an iPod connected via either the iPod lead or aux-in if necessary (preferably the former) but plenty of the adapters I'm seeing (Connects2 etc.) are quadlock.

    Removing aircon to remove phone cradle

    I'm wanting to remove the phone cradle that came with my car - it's the wrong cradle for my phone and I'm happy using my phone just on bluetooth anyway. The cradle is attached behind the aircon - is there a guide anywhere to remove the aircon so I can get at the cradle fixings? Is it a matter of...

    New owner... key question!

    Thanks a lot for the info... the auto-lock function is clearer to me now! Have also done some Googling on programming the second key by using both keys in ignition and door - seems to be a bit vague whether it will actually work but will give it a go before I shell out for the dealers to...

    New owner... key question!

    Greetings all, just picked up my first Audi yesterday - 56 plate A3 2.0 TDI. Loving it so far, and quite a step up from my old banger! I'm sure I'll have a few questions but first one is the availability of spare keys as it only came with one key. I know that for the full key and radio fob it...
