Hello all, Well after several weeks of diagnosis and lots of £'s spent my ECU needed to be tested. It's been done and the report said that it wasn't repairable (they could, but wouldn't garentee it). Turns out there has been a fair bit of burning by one of the processors. Does anyone know...

UPDATE: ON INSPECTION NO FUEL GETTING TO THE COMMON RAIL (CHECKED THE CLEAR PIPE IN THE FUEL FEED LINE). HAD CAR CHECKED BY DIESEL SPECIALIST, CONFIRMED THAT THE FUEL PRIMING PUMP IN THE TANK WASN'T TURNING ON EVERY TIME, OR WOULD INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF. REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP RELAY 614 AND...

Many thanks for the advice, will have a little play tomorrow afternoon.

Well, I found the fuel pump relay (under the ECU) and replaced it but still won't start. After a lot of fiddling I decided to change the fuel filter, primed with fresh diesel I gave it ago. She fired up and shut down a few seconds later with the glow plug light on. I checked the filter and the...

Hi all, I've had a knigtmare with my motor the last few days, it's a 2005 A4 B7 3.0 V6 TDI Quattro (BKN engine). I was driving along the other day when the engine seemed to cough, I looked at the dash and the yellow coil light was flashing, the engine cut out so I pulled over. Started the...

Thanks for the info guys, spoke to Audi and they clarified that you can only get these wipers from the stealers. Regards, Mike.

Hi everyone. Does anyone know if the wiper blades on a A4 3.0 TDI Q S-line (2005 - 05 BKN ECU) differed from all other B7 A4's? i.e did they change the connection clip later on? I only ask because I bought some from a 'respected' Ebay store and they were advitised as A4 MK3 Bosch 11.07...

Greetings all, Just a quick one, been looking at buying a set of A8 alloys for my '97 1.8T A3. The ones I've seen have 245x40x18's on them - will they fit my car, or are they to wide? I'm running at standard height etc! Don't really want to by new tyres so i take it spacers will be the way...

It was a genuine AUDI TU3 battery, so not the case of being a cheepie one. It's been really hot down here so if the battery was topped up with water the last few services, could that have done it?

Yeah, went bang alright! Plastic on both sides blow off with the top section cracked over its entire length - never seen our lass exit the car so fast!!!

Thanks Kev, was hoping it was gonna be a simple one like that!! Mike

HELP!!!! My battery has just exploded!!! Just went to start my car, A3 1.8T (97), and the battery decided to blow up. It seems to be mostly contained by the retaining clamp and cover - so no acid over the engine! Managed to remove what was left of the battery and clean the battery bay and...
