    Interior Courtesy Bulb?

    Hey all! I give you full permission to snigger whilst answering this question but I'm sitting here with one of the front courtesy light bulbs in my hand that needs replacing and apart from ascertaining that it's a "festoon" type of bulb and 12V10W I'm lost. The measurements I'm finding online...

    annoying buzzing /rattle

    I think I may have nailed my issue tonight. I decided to place a cloth on the door sill (as you step in the car) and then closed the door. I had a brainwave that maybe the door panel was rubbing against the door sill and it seems it was as the cloth (thus far) has fixed the issue. No idea how...

    Driver's Side Wiper Arm Hitting Off Bonnet/Hood

    There's a lot to be said for silent wipers. I went as far as putting Rain-X on the screen so I didn't have to use the wipers but this just didn't cut it and the wipers were still required at times. But now with Rain-X on the windscreen the wipers just juddered the whole way across the screen...

    annoying buzzing /rattle

    Amy how's this issue holding up for you? Is it still resolved? I've have the same intermittent noise at the same spot of the passenger's door since I bought the car last year and nothing I am doing is resolving it. That being the noise you thought was from the speaker grill/corner of door. I...

    Driver's Side Wiper Arm Hitting Off Bonnet/Hood

    The issue I had was that both arms sat in the resting position perfectly and moved across the glass as they should but the "elbow" of the driver's side arm protruded to a degree that it consistently hit the bonnet. So I picked up a second hand arm from the breakers but the same thing happened...

    Driver's Side Wiper Arm Hitting Off Bonnet/Hood

    An update on an old thread as I have found a resolution to my problem. I bought a second hand wiper linkage and motor from the breakers yard (came as one piece) and now everything works fine. No more arm hitting off the bonnet and no more wiper thud as wipers change direction. Obviously...

    Location Heater Flap Motor?

    Just an update on this; as I suspected it was the result of low gas. This resulted in the passenger side struggling to blow cold air.

    Location Heater Flap Motor?

    Cheers mate. Yeah I did that before posting and should have maybe mentioned. But what you have me thinking about is that when it runs the tests it states which flap/motor it's testing every 30 secs and I think I remember seeing the heater flap being mentioned! I'll check that again over the...

    Location Heater Flap Motor?

    Air con is working fine on driver's side but warm on passenger's side. Before I book the car in with Audi I want to try and locate the heater flap motor to see if there's any issue with that. I've had the glovebox out and there are 5xV157 actuator motors. My belief is/was that they all...

    Water getting into bootlid

    Resurrecting an old thread here, apologies for that. I am having the same issues mate, did you ever get this resolved and if so what did you do? When I open the boot lid fully water comes in through the cut outs in the underside of the boot lid (the cut outs that give you access to the light...

    Driveshaft Flange Issue

    Hi, Had my mechanic check out a rattle sound I was getting in low revs whilst in gear on my B8 A4. Turns out there's a fair bit of movement on the passenger side driveshaft where it enters the gearbox that is most likely the culprit. He checked with a guy who fixes gearboxes who said that my...

    Driver's Side Wiper Arm Hitting Off Bonnet/Hood

    LOL thanks for that mate it's very much appreciated. I'm inclined to agree that the arm is most probably bent as the linkage and spindles all seem fine. I'll go for an arm and see how I get on and let ya know. Thanks again ;)

    Driver's Side Wiper Arm Hitting Off Bonnet/Hood

    Thanks for that. What does the arm rest on when placed on the spindle for it doesn't go any further? The Autoglass guy (windscreen replacement company in U.K.) is very experienced and it was him that pointed it out to me.

    Driver's Side Wiper Arm Hitting Off Bonnet/Hood

    Hey all, Had Autoglass replace a windscreen for me today and the technician noted that the driver's side wiper arm was hitting of the bonnet. He showed me the small mark on its underside and you could see this has been happening for a while. I've just got the car a few weeks so it's news to...

    Small white mark on speedo card?

    PITA you say? Not half! I've it well susst now tho after spending most the afternoon mastering it lol. The trick is that when the trim is removed and vent exposed and if it's to be removed you do so by placing your hand over the front left side of it whilst taking it out. Otherwise make yourself...

    Small white mark on speedo card?

    Ok so the white spot is now gone thankfully. Turns out it was a small piece of what appeared to be powder or something like it. BUT what a nightmare I had with the air vent grill to the right of the cluster. Damn thing fell apart and I spent the better part of two hours putting it back...
