    Occasional high rever when starting from warm

    My A4 TDi has started to rev at about 3000 rpm for a second or so after restarting from warm. It doesn't do it all the time probably once a week. There are no other symptoms. The car has done 152,000 miles since new 2002 so I'm thinking maybe leaking injector(s). Any idea what else may...

    Ideas on suspension replacement

    Due to a possible house purchase I've decided that I may have to keep my current A4 Avant 1.9TDi for a couple of years more. The car has done a hassle free 150K since I bought it new in 2003 and is tidy enough for me to hang on to. The problem is that the suspension has gone very wallowy...

    Need a new clutch, advise on doing it myself

    The clutch on my 2002 A4 109TDi Avant feels like it is on its way out. Pedal operates quite high and I'm sure I can here the engine revs raising quicker than normal during hard acceleration. I'm planning to do this myself and with the lack of a Haynes manual for this year/model I'm looking...

    I have an 02 Audi A4 100 TDi and been doing all my own servicing. It's just dawned on me that I've done nothing with the particulate filter on this car and at 140K maybe it needs doing. But, does it have a prticulate filter? If so, how do I service it....is it a fluid top up? thanks

    I've posted regarding this question before but can't find the original message so apologies for opening a new thread.

    TDi more responsive after battery disconnect and reconnect

    While trying to sort out a electric window/mirrors and interior light problem I decided to see if reseting the ECUs on the car by disconnecting the battery would help solve the problem. After reconnecting and driving the car I found it quite a lot more responsive. Any reason for this? Thanks
