    Possible new car

    Thanks for the clarification on the Ultra details . I wasn't aware of that. Probably so used to looking at the Mrs 2017 A5 which is one. Yes I'm undecided to Co tinge looking at a C7.5 or a C8. I'm located in Ireland so anything I get will be guaranteed to be a UK import. Just trying to get a...

    Possible new car

    Hello all. As a long term Audi owner in the past who had gone to Volvo I am now considering a return to Audi. Going to be looking at a 2018 2.0 tdi Ultra A6 Avant. Can anyone offer some real world experiences please, or anything to be majorly aware of. Car will mainly be used for work commute...

    Stereo

    If it's the RNS-E navy unit the DVDs drive behind the screen may be factory locked to protect the navigation disc. Won't let you remove it to install a cd for music.

    Satnav discs

    Going to have to revert to plan B. Still have not received the disc from this guy, and he's being a bit of a jerk. Won't answer emails at all now

    Satnav discs

    Disc eventually came, but of course the wrong one I ordered Western Europe but received central, so now I'm waiting for the correct one. Told me to keep the wrong one as compensation, like I'm ever going to use it!

    Satnav discs

    has anyone dealt with www.audisatnav.co.uk based in Hereford? I purchased a 2016 RNS-E disc from them but haven't had any delivery or order confirmation yet in almost a week. Sent them a couple of emails but no supply??

    1.9tdi e fuel consumption

    How do you find the stage 1 Revo? What kind of difference do you get with it? Good value on that service kit

    1.9tdi e fuel consumption

    Ahh, that sounds better. I'll be doing a daily commute of 100 miles, 90 of which is motorway. Mine had been on a variable service schedule which seems to have been approx 15k miles. I would normally doing it at about 10k myself, but what do you guys normally do?

    1.9tdi e fuel consumption

    I hope I get better than that to be honest. My last car was a 2.5 V6 A6 and I was getting 550-570 miles from a full tank (approx €60). Anyone know what the the tank capacity is in litres?

    1.9tdi e fuel consumption

    As I'm new to this chapter of the forum, and A3s in general, can anyone give ideas to real world figure to diesel consumption. I'm in my first week of ownership, and just trying to see how many miles you can get from a tank, and average mpg. I'm a bit sceptical on the figures quoted by Audi

    New car for meThe A3

    Thanks, ya motor tax here is robbery. As I said that A3 will be €200 p/y, my missus has a 2006 A4 1.9tdi which is €628 p/y, work that one out??? Government changed the tax rates to emissions based in 2008, but only for new cars from that date forward. All older cars have to pay the old rates...

    New car for meThe A3

    hi, just bought a 2009 A3 sport back. It's a 1.9tdi, which is a big change as I'm coming from a 2003 A6 2.5tdi. It was staring to give a few problems along with a motor tax rate of €1200 per year the A3 will be a bit easier on the pocket at €200 per year. The A3 come with RNS-E, parking sensors...

    Clutch and gearbox problem

    Well finally got the car back today. It was described as a ball joint unit in the gearbox that was out of play by about 2mm and restricted fifth from engaging??? It's driving sweet as a nut now, so I can finally test the new clutch and flywheel and most importantly this didn't cost anything...

    Clutch and gearbox problem

    Ha, certainly sounds like it. They must have got something wrong when adjusting the the rods from the stick to the box. Cheers mate. It certainly makes a change for them.

    Coolant temp taking ages to rise

    If the coolant sensor on top that you already changed wasn't genuine I'd says that your most likely problem. I've changed a few between the A4 and A6 I've had, and been caught out badly with them. If it's not working properly it is giving a wrong reading to the ecu aswell as the guage (4 pin)...
