    '05 tdi front arch liner

    Hi all, with the floods down here at the moment, I just got back home to find the lower bit of the n/s front arch liner missing. It's only a small plastic section riveted to the bottom of the arch in front of the wheel... does anyone know what I'm on about and have a part number please? Thanks

    Replacement Wipers

    Evening The drivers side wiper on my A3 Sport is missing a bit of the window every time it passes. It's been doing this for a while so I'm guessing it'll need replacing. They are the Aero wipers, so are these only available from a dealer or am I okay replacing them with Bosch Aero ones from...

    Seat airbag plug help (pic)

    They both have 3 wires. Problem solved though. I plugged the one on the main loom in and drove to a specialist to get the airbag light cleared. They couldn't do it, as the fault was shown as 'static'. So swapped them over and the light cleared. So, for reference the airbag loom for the...

    Seat airbag plug help (pic)

    It's the photo. Both plugs are identical, just with different colour wires going to them. If someone could pop out in the cold and check theirs for me, I'll give them a biscuit.

    Seat airbag plug help (pic)

    Hi guys Had to take my passenger front seat out at the weekend to fix the runners... meaning I had to unplug the airbag from underneath. The problem I have is, there are 2 plugs looking exactly the same and only 1 socket. I remember only 1 of these was plugged in but I can't remember which...

    'siren' noise from turbo

    Okay, here's the result for all those people like me trawling the internet for a proper diagnosis... Audi have confirmed that the siren noise is indeed coming from the Turbo, and not the pipes. There is no air leak. The turbo is fit and healthy. Apparently it's just the small differences in...

    'siren' noise from turbo

    See, this is what I've been reading all day. Reports of it happening to loads and loads of VAG cars on the Internet. However, just in case someone else types it in to Google search and for my own piece of mine I'm going to pay for diagnostic at Audi... to put the matter to rest. Hopefully...

    'siren' noise from turbo

    This is what I've concluded. I hope to get a diagnosis report at Audi which I'll pay for... and then go back to the garage and argue the replacement turbo under the warranty.

    'siren' noise from turbo

    Drove another A3TDi this week and it didn't make the noise. So, it's booked in to an Audi dealer this time for a proper diagnosis as I'm not happy with it... will report on the outcome. Googling for the problem throws up so many similar stories, some people saying its normal some saying it's...

    Rear demister affecting radio reception?

    Hi all Whenever I use my rear demister, the radio reception becomes very poor. Switch the demister off and the radio comes back... which is nice, but annoying. Any clues?

    Checking for boost leak?

    Where is that found mate? Is it obvious by looking/feeling if it's blowing? 2.0TDi engine...

    Checking for boost leak?

    Which hoses would someone check if they suspected boost leak? Is it as simple as starting the engine, revving to spool up the turbo and feeling, listening for leaks?
