Tim,
I removed and cleaned all of items at the same, so I have no idea which bit was the main culprit !
Thanks again, the MPG has returned to a more useful 35MPG (touring) and there is no jerkiness when cold.
So theres still more life in her yet, who knows may even aim for 200,000!

Has anyone fitted the replacement powerflex bushes themselves?
Is it a nightmare of a job and if it can be tackled at home, how long might it take?
By the same token, replacing the stock springs for lowering ones is that a DIY job?
Any experience shared is appreciated
Thabks Tim,
Will give it a go. I am assuming the Airflow meter is the 'thingy' in the induction piping just ahead of the air filter box.
Here goes anyway..
I believe that the orginal fuel filter is still in residence!!
However it is getting changed on Monday, along with all the brake disks and pads. Just as well its only money!
What would you suggest is best to clean the air meter with?
Cheers
Richard

It uses minimal oil, no...
AndyMac,
Thanks for the reply. A can of steering fluid resides in the boot next to the engine oil and other essentials!
Everyone I have spoken to says its a nightmare to fit.
Cheers
Richard
Our UK 1995 2.6 Quattro has steadily racked up more miles and now stands at 172,000
(What sort of miles should one of these survive up to?)
I have noticed that power steering fluid has been escaping along the steering rack cover on the passenger side of the car. Fortunately it seems to leak...
Can anyone out there help. My 95 2.6 A4 is now suffering from an uncooperative climate control problem. For some time the control unit has flickered etc but for even longer air would only come out of the screen demist vents regardless of which button is pressed. Whilst not ideal at least the...
