Hi all, Thanks for the replies, I've been back and forth with them taking your suggestions into consideration. After I had a closer look at it I found the door card wasn't fitted properly after the last time they had it. They claimed in November to have found the leak and put it down to the...

My wife's A1 has a lot of water gathering in the driver side footwells, front and back. Has anybody had anything similar, or any idea where to start looking? The car is only 16 months old and this is the second time we've had a leak into the cabin. Last year it went back to Audi who found a...

Found it! The police found it as part of a selection of cars they'd tracked down to a scrappy in Dundee. I noticed the car theft was ridiculous, the police have told me they're "closing in" on the thiefs... Apparently... Either way thanks for all the help. I've not seen the car yet so...

Thank you. Its appreciated!

STOLEN FROM BRIDGE OF DON ABERDEEN - Grey Audi A4 saloon 1.9TDI registration V111 HFC. Front wing was badly damaged and a dent in the tail gate. If anybody has seen or heard anything, bought any parts, seen anything advertised or stumbled across anything at the scrappies let me know! Please...

Evening gentlemen. Just a quick post to see if anybody feels like doing their good dead for the day. My Auntie and 5 of her friends are doing a charity walk for the Leanne fund. They're doing 100 miles each from the bottom to the top of the Isle of Lewis and Harris, they start bright and early...

Never mind, took the coil pack off just now and it's got 3 big cracks over the coils for 3 and 4.

Haven't been on here in a while, but I've just bought a new car and it's giving me a problem I just cannot figure out. At first I thought it just had a slight miss-fire, very old spark plug like, but then I played with it a wee bit. The missfire is still there under load and it seems to be...

It's a '96, 2wd 'sport' model, covered 91k in it's time, AEB engine in very good running order. No MOT but 6 months remaining tax, needs a set of disks and pads, an exhaust flexi, and a weld on the sub-frame. What's it worth as a going concern? What's it worth in bits. Requests for parts on...

Right, I'm gonna pop one up but keep it nice and simple, and make sure people know I won't sell anything on that thread :).

as above really, considering stripping my 1.8t sport as I found some tin worm on the sub-frame, and it's been sitting for a while so it needs a selection of parts.

Yeah it is a waste. Used to login here on occasion just to view that very thread. Went to have a cheeky wee perv today and couldn't find anywhere :(

I think I was pretty lucky in my venture, bear in mind I'm and experience mechanic and fabricator. I managed to save probably about £300 on the exhaust alone, maybe another £150 on the boost pipes, and god knows how much on labour. Budget tuning is a lot of fun, but if you're not able to do most...

It's a transplant. It's powering 4wd running gear but isn't mated to it's original gearbox. The car it's in wasn't originally 4wd, but some of the range was, so I've managed to find all the parts I needed, but I had to make my own floorpan.

I am using a 1.8t engine, but it's not in an Audi, disenclined to say at this point, mainly cause a friend of mine also reads this forum, and he is my direct competition for next year lol. I also have a BMW 3 series under construction, so far it promises to be pretty good.

Thing about off the shelf is you don't know until it's done. Best thing to do here would be go back to whoever it came from and see what they say.

It is a fantastic chassis. I spent a good bit on the S4 last month. Went for a full polybush and koni's. I've never driven anything like it in terms of responsiveness. The engine position, natural balance and sheer weight of the car is still too big a drawback for me, especially taking it into...

Lol, she might find that though

It probably is, I'd suggest a change of garage if that's the case, wouldn't fancy that mechanic doing my wheel alignment that's for sure.

Agreed, I'd guess an off the shelf chip?
