Hi All,
I have owned my 56 plate A3 S Line 2.0 TDI for 2 and a half years now, and for the past year or so I have noticed something. One day I will get in it and drive away and it will feel slightly sluggish than normal and like it takes a bit more effort to get going, bit like its choking ever...
Over the last few weeks now and again the car wont start will do a slow chug chug with about a second in between a chug and then I usually turn ignition off turn back on and she starts fine. Then other day pulled up at my mates for 5 minutes and then tried to start her and she wouldn't, even...
Anyone know of any reputable companys/people doing remaps at reasonable price around these areas?
56 plate 140 BKD engine with 190k on the clock! Just had a new turbo so should be fine right? Not looking to boot her round everywhere just after the extra power and torque for when I need it. Shes...
2.0 TDi 2006, BKD engine.
Been getting the coolant light on dash for a few months but just ignored as coolant level was at max, however past month lots of white smoke out the back on start up and thats wether its a hot or cold start but as soon as you set off non at all, but if leave it to idle...
For past 2/3 months Ive been getting the coolant light on the dash but yet when I check the coolant its inbetween the min and max just under the max line, also recently when starting the engine a bit of white smoke comes out and rought idle for about 20 seconds. Anyone any ideas why the light...
So I took my car to the garage for the turbo to be cleaned and got it back and gone for a drive, driving to the redline for a bit and then took it up a steep hill and yet again turbo cut out and gone into limp mode, however the siren noise has now stopped.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks
Found plenty of threads on the whole Mr Muscle turbo cleaning thing but non for my engine and therefore I have no idea where I should be putting the stuff and I am desperate to try this as I'm pretty sure this will solve a lot of my issues.
Anyone with any images or descriptions for this...
Don't really want to get to into it but basically I purchased a 56 plate S Line which I thought had 77k on the clock but a few weeks ago realised I had been conned and in fact has over 180,000! Absolutely gutted as I have saved up a long time for it and wanted a relatively low mileage one so...
Bit of background, I sometimes notice the car feels slugish in low revs till it hits 2000 rpm in 2nd and 3rd and other times it feels really responsive in the 1500-2000 range, so for starters thats annoying and anyone any ideas as to why that may be?
But today while accelerating down the...
Last 2 trips a warning light has appeared and Im not too sure what it means. Ive found a image below with the light, its the big one in the middle at the top on the main trip computer bit. Anyone help us?
Been talking to a guy at work and he was telling me how I should be using V Power in the A3 2.0 TDi S Line, saying that it keeps the pipes clean and delivers more power and a better drive, can anyone confirm this? Always just used to think that stuff was a con. Also that it should be given a...
Bought the car about a month back with heavily scuffed alloys in places and been huming over either a set of new alloys or just getting the originals reconditioned, Think im going to go with the originals and a slight colour change for ease and cost reasons.
Just wondering what your opinions...
Thinking about a remap in the future on a 2.0 TDi 2007, but I have a few questions
How much do they cost?
How much do they tend to improve the mpg?
How noticeable is the power increase?
Will I need to notify my insurance?
Is there likely to be any future issues with engine failure etc?
Sorry...
Just wanted to say after a year or so of saving up I have finally purchased my first Audi, A3 S Line 2.0 TDI in blue. Previously driving a 53 plate Clio for 5 years and had been looking for the right A3 to come up for a while and as seen as I seen this one I knew it was the one. Complete...
