    Audis in the park - Sunday 12th August

    Is there a convoy going down from Scotland folks ? I have been to numerous Jap car events at Wicksteed so know it well but this looks to be fun and I could be tempted to come ! Also does anyone know if Dogs are still welcome @ Wicksteed ? They were when I was last there in 2010 for JAE If...

    S3 8L Tyres

    I went for something completely different and fitted some Firestone SZ90u's all round on my Stage 2 mapped S3. They were about £90 a corner fitted and I have to say I am extremely impressed with them both in the dry and in this crappy rain we have. In my opinion they outperform every other tyre...

    pretty pretty please with a chery on top can sumone help

    that price is ******** !!! I know of a guy with an R32 golf that paid that for the same issue and it is a hell of a lot more work to sort in the R32 than it is on one of these ! I would get a chain yourself and do it mate. Theres no way it should cost 1200-1600 quid !

    Help with Engine management light with picture

    Are all of your tyres the same size and all at the correct pressure ? If one is soft compared to the others the car can throw a speed sensor error. I have seen it many times before believe it or not !

    aa out again grrrr

    Just a thought ... Your crank could be one revolution out from your camshafts. Remember your crank does two revolutions to every one revolution your cams do so you can actually be out by a whole rotation of your crank. The car will run but you will get weird issues and it's easily done believe...

    new timeing belt fitted and still no joy

    My bet it your cam chain is stretched and it's throwing out the timing mechanically. This is a common issue on mk4 golfs with the 20vt I am told. Deffo worth looking into.

    aa out again grrrr

    Always turn the crank pulley mate :) thats the bottom one :) A lot of folk are scared of belts for some reason, really theres not much to them if you just take your time and line everything up properly. The mistake a lot of folk make is they fit it then just fling it all back together and...
