I have a code reader but it’s not VAG specific. It isn’t showing any codes relating to the coolant. Does this need diagnosed by Audi / VCDS? It shows these: P1573 Sporadic upper limit exceeded P3135 Sporadic upper limit exceeded P161D P2008 intake manifold open bank

Felt the hoses after I warmed it to temp. They are all roasting hot and the overhead tank is warm too. but it was sitting a needle width over the line when driving and the fan was kicking in and out. it would go to normal temp then just edge over again and keep doing this. The blowers still blow...

No I haven't, that is common sense but I haven't thought to do that to see where the blockage is...

Hey, I have an Audi B7 3.0 TDi V6 (240bhp model) and im banging my head against a wall with my cooling system. For weeks and weeks it was heating up to temperature as normal but would then fluctuate between 70 and 90 degrees, but never once overheated. The blowers inside the car only blow...

Hey guys. Looking to replace the thermostat on my B7 3.0 TDi. It’s the 240bhp model. Can anyone point me in the direction of it and is it an easy fix? Symptoms are: Heats up to normal temp and fluctuates between 70 and 90 degrees during all driving. Blowers inside blow cold air only Last night...

Aw right. That isn’t so bad. Is it an easy enough diy job or is it best to put it to a garage for the thermostat? Don’t know what’s best about water pump. There are no receipts for it but the car has done 128k.

i have completed a few jobs to my car and wanted to show the progress. It’s a 2007 B7 3.0 TDi TDV V6 (240bhp) Automatic Quattro in brilliant red. Jobs I’ve done so far: Full double din cage/console conversion - in dash 6 disc changer symphony II fitted (but have a RNSD I’m trying to source...

hi all, Tonight while driving along my car started to drop it’s temperature on the gauge. It was fluctuating gradually down and then back up over the course of a 200 mile journey but didn’t make a noticeable difference in performance... It never dipped below 70 or raised above 90. No leaks or...

I did and the black headrest guides would only come out when snapped off, but I got the new interior in. Dunno how to do it properly though...

Hey, I am pulling my hair out here. Got a full set of leathers for my B7 and cannot get the headrest guides/anchors removed. Searched all forums and google/YouTube etc. The best solution I can find is “yank them up” but I can’t get enough purchase even with a bar. I’ve broken all of them...

Hi all, Im looking for a decent headunit, just something to enable CDs that looks right enough and has usb functionality. This Headunit here on ebay seems to fit the bill. What sort of wiring / problems am I likely to encounter if I bought it? I take it that it wont be as easy as plug and...

Hi All, I had a single din Audi Concert head unit and am trying to swap it out for an RNS-D but am having issues. Have had my car programmed with VCDS and also wired power to the Safe Pin. Problems: It is asking for my radio code every time it switches on. It wont turn on/off with the car...

hi all, I have been battling on with this conversion for a while. I’ve had my entire console out, I’ve sawn it up and modified all other necessary trim pieces, replaced the single din cage with a double din, bought the head unit, modified my loom to provide power to the “Safe Pin” and also had...

It was a single din audi concert head unit.

Mine never works. It came with a CD changer so it comes up with the 6 CDs as the options, but none of the buttons light up and it never powers on or off with the car. I have someone with VCDS going to program my car to work with it to see if that helps. If not, its back to the drawing board.

Hey and thanks! Aw well, like Sandra says, you cant have too many friends. Plus, us Scots tend to be a rare breed round forums, so that's a bonus! Thanks! Yeah I have been lurking in the shadows asking for help and advice for a week or two since I bought it. Kept meaning to post some kind of...

Do like the little A1, and welcome.

Thanks. I was on the VCDS map. I live in the highlands of Scotland, so there aren't all that many of them! but I have a few lined up. Think someone is going to help with this, this week but if not ill maybe give you a shout for help with finding one. cheers

Hi All, I used to have a 2005 A4 B7 S-Line 2.0 TDi (140 bhp model) in black. Was a lovely car and I liked everything about it, except the engine. It sounded terrible in my opinion. Very tractor-ish. Sold it a few years back and have just purchased another one. This one is a 2007 A4 B7 S-Line...

I have someone/people in my area with VCDS and are willing to give it a go. Two questions: 1) when there is the option for instrument cluster is this required to show the CD/Track No on the red screen or is this option only for the colour screens? 2) and are the problems im having sounding...
