    new a6 avant owner

    What's your oil temp like? Mine doesn't seem to reach temp. If it is an apu the temp sensor is built into the oil level sensor and is pretty expensive. That is if you can find the part number. Etka gives the number for a sensor that plugs into the oil cooler but this will not fit. Been running...

    new a6 avant owner

    My guess is if its a jaspis green 1.8t then the engine code is APU. Thermostat will definately need changing as you will be using more fuel than normal.

    Stereo Wiring Problem

    I believe the rear speakers run from the amp built into the sub. Is the sub plugged in? If you check in the cubbyhole on the drivers side you should see the plug. I unplugged mine when I fitted my aftermarket sub and soon found out the rear door speakers didn't work.

    A6 1.8t gurgling?

    I have taken some pictures of this pipe. It looks as though it comes from behind the wheel well liner and it runs about two feet towards the back of the car to nothing?

    A6 1.8t gurgling?

    Hi my 2000 1.8t apu has aquired a strange gurgling noise. It is coming from a pipe that ends under the car on the drivers side, probably under the drivers seat area. This pipe doesn't seem to go to anything and when I place my finger over the end my finger gets sucked onto the pipe and the...

    Indicator isuues

    I now believe it to be relay . While driving today when it happened I tapped the area around the hazard button and the indicator started working. I still had to do this every time I indicated though which is a bit of a pain. Will scan it when I have more time.

    I believe that the v8 models are all slightly wider to accommodate the engine.

    Indicator isuues

    In the last couple of days the indicators have developed a fault. When I indicate (either way) it will blink three then stop. That's with the stalk still in the indicate position. I am having to flick it off and on again where it will do the same. Will this be a relay issue or is the fault...

    Could it be an issue with worn wheel bearings also?

    Rear suspension

    You should check these out. At £8 they may be a damn sight cheaper than replacing the shock and springs. http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk/frame-detail.asp?PAGE=/start.asp

    what turbo's fit a 1.8t

    The one specifically for our car is k03-029. You could upgrade to a k04-015. Which is a straight swap but I would recommend putting new oil feed on too.
