    Help Please Heated Washer Jets Voltage

    rum4mo, thanks for the reply. Yeah, I guessed it would just be a 12v system, but wasn’t sure it wouldn’t be some spurious low voltage thing. Yeah, the car definitely has heated washers, I replaced the washers a few months ago for the fan type. I’ve already tried to test the wiring, but it...

    Help Please Heated Washer Jets Voltage

    Evening all, Just a quick question. During the recent cold weather we've had, my windscreen washer jets don't want to play. They're fine when its gets a little warmer though. Because of this, I'm not sure my heated washer jets are working. The rear always works, so its not the motor freezing...

    CGLC engine oil dipstick

    Evening all I’ve been reading that some engines that didn’t come from the factory with a dipstick, can have one added. Now my engine 2.0tdi CGLC currently doesn’t have a dipstick tube fitted to it. Or at least one that I can see. Does anyone know if there is a dipstick tube available to fit...

    Heated wing mirror not working (again)..

    NHN, I knew they only worked below a certain temperature, but wasn't aware about the rear demister needing to be on so thanks for that! Also, do i need to move my mirror switch away from the "passenger dip" position and into the "heated logo" position then? Cheers!

    A2DP kufatec Bluetooth kit

    Sweet. I’m CarPlay too. Having a slight issue with my phone call audio not coming through the speakers when CarPlay is in use. I know it’s just a setting somewhere but not sure which one. Did you have to make any changes on either the iPhone or in the UAD software? Call Audio comes through the...

    A2DP kufatec Bluetooth kit

    I think it’s a great bit of kit! Any complaints or issues with yours? I didn’t want to spend that kind of money but I’m so glad I bit the bullet. You use CarPlay or Android Auto?

    A2DP kufatec Bluetooth kit

    For a couple of hundred quid more, I fitted this. https://unique-ad.co.uk/product/audi-a4-carplay-box/ it’s pricey, but works brilliantly for audio and even added map functionality to my car. Their customer service is also great and the fitting instructions are almost idiot proof. No coding of...

    Number Plates.

    Not to undermine Mike Parkin, but i know that the tooling required to produce metal pressed plates is pretty pricey, so unless there's great demand, I doubt Mike would be willing to make that kind of outlay. On that note though, I ordered some pressed metal plates with all relevant BSAU...

    Scuttle Cover - Plastic Screws?

    They’re not actually screws as such. Just trim clips. So they just pop out. A trim removal tool is ideal for these. They’re like a flat fork that slides under the clip then you pry up with it and the pop out. That’s why there’s such a recessed space around them. To accommodate a trim tool...

    DPF Regen?

    I tried the free app which had worked well. It’s showing that the car regen’d 139 miles ago. So that’ll have been on the way to the lakes. Happy days. It’s also showing 13.34g of soot currently in the DPF. Not sure what’s classed as high or low amounts though. Thanks again Cashutt!

    DPF Regen?

    Thanks cashutt. There’s a free version and a paid version on the play store. Do you know if I can get away with the free one or will I need to purchase the other one? cheers.

    DPF Regen?

    Evening guys. I've owned diesel Audi's for a number of years but never one with a DPF. I've recently acquired a 2014 A4 Avant 2.0 TDI (CGLC) I normally only ever do fairly short journeys as my work commute is only around 3-4 miles each way. Because of this, I'm a little worried that my DPF...

    Boost leak?

    Cheers. I didn't think a dealer would do that sort of thing. Although the car has FSH I don't fancy paying dealer rates. If worst comes to worst I'll have to mind. Arron.

    Boost leak?

    As per title, does anyone know of anywhere in the North East, preferably Sunderland - Newcastle area that can do a smoke test on my car to find a suspected boost leak? My car doesn't seem to have the power it once had and there's a slight hissing under boost. I've checked all hoses and pipes I...

    Is My Car Canbus?

    Thanks guys. I've just realised that not long ago I had a message appear in the DIS telling me I had a headlight bulb out. So I should've known really. So there's no way to tell if LED number plate lights will throw an error without actually trying some then? Cheers. Arron.

    Electrical Issue with Dashboard brightness and headlight adjuster.

    Yeah borrowed a switch from a friends car and it didn't work. Put my switch into her A3 and it worked no problems. Did your two rollers stop working at the same time? In my case the headlight roller stopped working a long time before the brightness roller did.

    Electrical Issue with Dashboard brightness and headlight adjuster.

    I am also having the same problem. Cannot find a blown fuse and have replaced the full switch pack, but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Arron.
