Hi folks I was standing in front of my wife’s a5 2.0tfsi the other morning after it had been stood for a couple of days and it makes a strange noise for a second or two, stopped and started it again but it only does it the first time you start it cold. Here’s a link with another car (not ours)...

Hi guys, does any body know anywhere in the northeast that can retrofit a Bluetooth set up into a 2011 a5, all going well picking one up tomorrow for the wife but it doesn't appear to have Bluetooth installed and I don't want to go down the route of having a parrot or similar item sticking out...

anyone had gearbox bearing problems?

Just wondering if anyone has experienced worn bearings in a c6 manual 6 speed gearbox, from what I've read it was a common issue on the earlier A6 but haven't come across any complaints on these newer ones. I had the front wheel bearings changed a year ago thinking it was one of them but the...

Hi could anyone point me in the direction of a link for a guide to show me how to change the front wheel bearings on my 06 A6 2.4

would I be on the right track thinking they have broken a sensor or cable to a sensor

after having the front wheel bearings chged on my 2005 A6 I now have just about every warning light up on the dash a dodgy handbrake and no speedo, anybody have any idea what went wrong?

Had my car into the garage I bought it from a few weeks to get the front wheel bearings replaced as there was a lot of noise coming from one of them. I now have abs, esc, engine management lights on aswell as having no speedo and the handbrake not working. the guy said it was because the...

Hi guys I'm buying a 2005 A6 2.4se 6speed manual with 80k on the clock, it has audi history up to 70k, when I viewed the car the electronic handbrake wasn't working and the power steering was a bit noisy at full lock at low revs. the garage is changing the aux belt, sorting out the handbrake and...

Its a quattro you dont need fukin snow tyres wre not in iceland, just buy some decent tyres job done, I drove my S3 everyday through last winter with maxxis tyres which aren't my favourites but coped ok. If I was looking at at a S3 which had budget tyres on I'd never heard of I would have ran a...

I haven't had it scanned so don't know of any error codes, all I can say is that both times this happened once running there are no problems what so ever no unusual noises from pump running smoothly with full power etc and I have been using the car for 2 days since without it happening again but...

have read a few threads on here now with what sounds like exactly the same problem but none have mentioned getting the problem solved, anyone had it and fixed it, there are no other symtoms just that the pump doesn't prime and the engine doesn't start, I don't really want to spend a fortune...

Hi mate did you ever get to the bottom of this fault as mine now has the same problem.

Hi Guys hope somebody can help with this one, in the last week my S3 has failed to start on a couple of occasions, evntually It has started but the problem is that the fuel pump is not starting up as you can't hear it purge, the first time I got the rac out and he jacked the car up and hit the...

Hi guys just started getting an intermitent missfire today, I've noticed a flatspot for a couple of days when I accelerate just for a second then it takes off as normal so wasn't to worried but today hen I set off for work after a few miles when I booted it started to missfire quite badly but is...

Had the same on mine a couple of months back and it was the the orange pipe as above that was the fault it was coming away from the turbo even with new clip on it, apparently its a common issue as they deteriate with age, I have now fitted a forge silicon one and have had no problems since...

Yeh I did, gave them a good clean with contact cleaner then refitted with new clip, have been for 10 mile no holds barred run and the pipe hasn't moved.

Had blown the boost pipe off where it goes onto the alloy pipe ontop of the engine, the end of the pipe is a bit suspect as some of the outer edge of it has come off and clip isn't great, I put it back on and went fro a run round the block and it looks like it's going to come off again so I've...
