    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    The Audi was collected by it's new owner yesterday. It's gone from Cardiff to Preston to Leeds and now it resides in Somerset, so anyone from down there may spot it hanging around!

    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    I've never liked the Z4 up until now. I think you appreciate it more when you see it up close and see how well it's actually styled. The long bonnet and squatted rear end makes it look like a proper sports car, unlike the TT which is too curvy and perfectly proportioned. I'm yet to drive one...

    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    It is a shame but I've struggled to bond with the A3. I'm going to be buying a Z4 2.0i to replace it. I looked on autotrader and the cheapest 2.0TDI sport in the whole country in black is 7990 and that has more miles and is just bog standard. That's what I've based my price on. Hopefully...

    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    I've lowered the price now, because I need the money for my new car. Now only £8250 with BBS CK's and Black Edition/S-Line kit. Also taking offers on the wheels with originals in P/X if anyone is interested.

    S-Line conversion done, but front fogs cannot be connected. Any ideas why?

    The repair wires are the same. Not sure about the loom plugs.

    I'll be going for 30/35mm lowering springs, that way the car should at S-Line height-ish. Will maintain maximum comfort and practicality too! Cheers mate, a couple more exterior bits to sort then I'll be happy!

    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    BIG Update today! My MY11/12 rear lights came through the other day, big thanks to Nigel (NHN) for supplying me with these. Fantastic price and service. Also, I finally got the wheels on. The suspension needs to set a bit at the back from when the car was jacked up, but overall the car sits...

    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    Cheers for the comments guys, 19's were the original choice but I came to the conclusion that they don't suit an A3 anywhere near as well as an S3 (because of the lack of side skirts). Also, they're not entirely practical. I wanted a car that could look like it came this way from factory and I...

    Make my TDI sound a bit more 'throaty'

    I also did the same thing. Simply removed the backbox and had a straight pipe welded on with a tip. Sounds real nice under heavy accel and completely normal and quiet when cruising. Btw, the turbo whoosh noise is so loud when the engine is cold. Turns so many heads! Drop me a PM if...

    Indy's 2.0TDI Progress Thread

    Did someone say BBS? It's been a while since my last update, so no better way to come back to a thread than having some new wheels! I went for 18" BBS CK's with 225/40 Falken tyres. I wanted to keep everything subtle and factory looking, and IMO there is no wheel which achieves this any...

    It will be sorted soon Nigel, just not had the time to get it done because I've needed the car everyday.

    Will 18" S-line alloys look odd on std Sport if not lowered?

    Upping the wheel size and lowering the tyre profile will enhance the arch gap. Will need a subtle drop to sort it out the appearance.

    My Mauritious Blue S-Line Conversion

    That's strange you say that, I'm going to have to get a couple of pictures of mine. On their own the 9smd LED sidelights I've got look super bright white, but the Diamond Vision dipped beams just look way whiter still! I think it must be down to the angles, because when looking down onto the...

    My Mauritious Blue S-Line Conversion

    The Diamond Vision bulbs really are brilliant aren't they? I fitted mine last week and drove the car at night for the first time since and they look really crisp! They actually make the LED sidelights from Trups look a bit yellow from some angles! What are those bulbs you have in the rear...

    S-Line conversion done, but front fogs cannot be connected. Any ideas why?

    Thank you Nigel, I wouldn't ask you to come to mine just do the fogs, that's a bit unfair on you. So will definitely get in touch about this once I've collected some other bits and pieces together :)

    Coolant Alarm - Cold Weather?

    Mine was doing this when it was really cold in January, but now it's back to normal and behaving absolutely fine.

    S-Line conversion done, but front fogs cannot be connected. Any ideas why?

    Atleast it is all sorted now. The reason I was originally confused is because I thought they were using the repair wires I provided, so in turn it made me look stupid posting a thread on here! Just a case of finding time to get it sorted now. May just leave them disconnected for the meantime...

    S-Line conversion done, but front fogs cannot be connected. Any ideas why?

    Went to the bodyshop on Saturday and turns out that they couldn't fit the fogs because they weren't using the repair wires. They had dropped into the spare wheel well when I took all the parts down to get fitted, so it is actually a really straight forward job.
