    2012 A1 serious problems

    Btw adaptation relates to the ECU in your car. Essentially it 'learns' as you drive and adapts the fuel trims etc to suit. In my mind you're panicking before you know there's still an issue. Deep breaths... Try to believe that your issues are over.

    2012 A1 serious problems

    Hi - good news, hopefully, though I sense your frustration. Stay with this, it seems that the dealer / Audi is still on board and are still trying their hardest to fix the car at their expense. I guess that they've given your GF a shiny new car to drive whilst hers is being repaired and it's...

    Rattle upon start up

    Agree - it's not normal. I had the same car (2010).

    Help

    I've had both the latest 2.0 tdi engines in different A5 quattros and I can't say I've noticed an unusual shake at start. The older 170 bhp did suffer from clutch shudder however.

    Window Regulator Issue -

    Sorted. There's a bolt on component on the regulator that is attached with 4 screws. Essentially it contains the electric motor with magnets etc. I removed this and rotated it 180 degrees and hey presto, fixed.

    A great story - good old Audi.

    There are lots of options. DIY with Robin supplying parts or Nigel fitting Robins parts. Essentially you need to fit additional wiring so it's not as straight forward as you'd expect. Also there is the extent of lighting you'd like to fit. You might just want footwell and glovebox lights - a...

    Finally got my A5!!

    You're got a hard drive in the boot? If so why not use the connector in the glove box to link an ipod or USB stick? Audi do two types of connector to suit either Apple or Android devices. This would save having to fit the SD card reader. Btw add me to the list of admirers of your wheels.

    Finally got my A5!!

    Try deleting your bluetooth connection between your car and phone and then re-establishing it. Something is clearly wrong with the bluetooth link. Fiddling about...? I can't relate to this. Even if my phone is in the wife's bag it connects okay and plays music etc from it. In my mind it...

    2012 A1 serious problems

    Hi - sorry to hear about your issues. I am, like your GF a humble Audi customer who has had a few serious issues in the past. After first taking a deep breath I would suggest that you escalate your concerns to Audi UK. Try to focus only on YOUR issues not the issues of all A1 owners and stick...

    Aaron, there's also a guy on here, Nigel, who is linked with Robin - he fits the kit if required.

    MY2014 Non-Nav Bluetooth Streaming

    I have an A5 2.0 TDI Black Edition Quattro. I have Telephone Prep High, it gives me instant traffic updates, Google Earth view on the Sat Nav, Audi Connect - a cool web search feature, and the capacity to create a mobile wi-fi network. I had a spare SIM that I used on my ipad - it has...

Here's a link to the advert - it's long since sold btw. 2010 Audi A5 S Line for sale in Central Bedfordshire England - United Kingdom The new car is weeks old. It has soft leather S-Line seats, a 'squared-off' steering wheel and better alloys. I like to...

    Audi A5 3.0 TDi potential purchase

    Hi - I had a 2.0 tdi quattro special edition s-line - a bit of a mouthful but essentially it was a pre-facelift Black Edition. In fact I have just replaced it with a new facelift version (2.0 tdi Black Quattro). The S-line adds LED's front a rear as standard, as well as sports suspension, B&O...

    Finally got my A5!!

    I'm a bit confused. If you have MMI and phone connect then you can you can speak on the phone etc. via bluetooth so you kind of have it. I have the SD reader too and this adds Audi Connect - it's essentially a web-link to useful features like, fuel (cheapest fuel in area search), weather, whats...

    Electrical wizardry?

    Yes I think that you're right - I must be barking up the wrong tree with that idea.

    A great story - good old Audi.

    Okay, so I am guessing that some people may not see my point here though I'm sure that those how value their motors will. I am also sure that not the only guy has picked up his new Audi - with lots of spec - only to find that it doesn't have a light in the glove box or footwells. I can recall...

    Electrical wizardry?

    Hi - this is seemingly a common issue as I have seen many similar reports online (not just on Audi's), though no solution. I have replaced a window regulator and the new one works 'backwards' i.e. I press down and the window goes up; i pull up and the window goes down. There is no way that...
