Hello folks. Been a while. I still have my R plate A4 Avant 2.8 Quattro auto. I'm about to emigrate so need to move it on one way or another. It's not the best example you've seen but certainly isn't the worst either. I'll post up all details if required of course. Basically it needs a damn...

Everyone loves a good back-story these days right? :no: Anyway here's mine (so you can skip this bit if you prefer).. Was out of the country for a while and then spent the last couple of months in/out of hospital (going in again in a few weeks) so only just getting to sort some recent issues...

Well first I'll say hello to anyone who does(or even doesn't) remember me, not been here for ages... but then the Quattro hasn't been running/used for longer than that either lol So after sorting out the fuel filter leaking and checking through various other things it still won't run...

Hello folks, long time no see. Well unfortunately the Quattro is yet again the bane of my life and I need to get it sorted or get rid of it. So I'll go through the scenario/timeline as best I recall and then get on to the current problem. Car 1998 Quattro 2.8l 30v V6 Avant It has a burning...

So I actually managed to get it to drive 150 miles.. Now we have anairbag light and fault code is 01221 44-00 driver side side airbag sensor short . 'Looking for clues' is the song title for today. I'm guessing it may be under the seat ? Ideas of easy way to get to it & likely problem? Cheers.

OK after managing to ignore the odd occasion when the immobiliser decides to paly up... Today the dash display has refused to work. It will come on as you turn the ignition off however (and a tweak of the ignition key will keep it on). But once the car is started it's gone. Is this a common...

Thought it might be easier to get an opinion if you could see what it's like rather than just desccribing it. so here's a crappy little video. Does this look like a normal amount of movement or too much?

So is there any facts as to what other propshafts fit other models? Specifically I'm looking at a 2.8 30v Quattro Avant but having trouble finding the exact one but can find others that may or may not fit. This is the question... do the manual/auto share the same propshaft despite the part...

Looking for a propshaft for my 2.8 30v Quattro Avant. Does it share prop with any other model as finding one is proving to be tricky so far. Or anywhere recommended that can recon one ? (Midlands preferably) Or scrapyards that may have one? Any help locating one really. Cheers.

I've had a good look around and can't find anything that helps. I have the tupperware sub in my Avant and need to get to it to see what i can do with it. Changed HU and want to actually have some sound from the rears :drool: So any tips on the easiest way to remove the trim panel that covers...

I was about to look at doing a cambelt on my 2.8 V6. That has now been put on hold due to an unexpected visit to my local hosp for a bit of an emergency op. so I'm thinking of getting the job done by a local VAG garage. Been quoted £440 for a cambelt swap with water pump thermo and small...

Had the air-con recharged, worked fine at first then noticed that it's gone a bit crappy again already (only 2 wks at most). Also noticed that the temp gauge is intermittently reading very low .. just slightly above the 60 degree mark. Then sometimes it will read correctly. Are the two...

Well I had to see what all the fuss was about (and needed something more practical than my trackday car for day to day stuff) so stepped away from my usual brand of car and got myself an A4 Avant Quattro 2.8. So seems OK so far apart from having what seems like all the usual problems...
