    Speed Limiter

    I think I'd probably be more restrained than you if I were in Finland, I believe the penalty for speeding is much more severe than here in the UK.

    Speed Limiter

    Neither is the speedo, at that speed it will typically over read by upto 110%, so at an indicated 161mph the true speed will be nearer to 146mph. Most cars with limiters will show speeds well over the 155mph limit even though in reality they are travelling much slower, which suggests the...

    B8 Dpf Delete Anyone Done It

    Not true, I know a guy with a Seat Leon FR, he had the DPF gutted and a re map last year after having problems. The car recently failed it's MOT because the tester suspected it had been tampered with, he pointed out the filthy tail pipes and the soot on the back bumper which would have been...

    Service due - dealer or not?

    Yep, I know it's a common problem and I believe VAG will now supply a repair kit, but at the time the only option for me was to either try to source parts that I could perhaps effect a permanent repair with, or take it in and have it fixed using the official repair. I didn't have the time or the...

    Service due - dealer or not?

    One benefit of a main dealer history is if you are unfortunate enough to have a major problem and the car is out of warranty there is a very good chance that you will get some or even all of the work done as good will by the dealer. I had a situation on my Touareg where the servo motor linkages...

    A4 Dynamik Owners Thread

    Recipe for disaster IMO, only 30% of transmitted light means it must be VERY difficult to see through them at night, add in some rain and it will be worse still. It's very likely that one miserable winter evening you won't see that approaching motorcycle as you pull out of a junction, you'll...

    Nurburgring Advice

    Oh you lucky chap, I've been a few times and always stay at the Ringhaus, as Sidibears post, it's very close to the entrance and not too far to walk into town in the evening, the staff are really pleasant and insist on speaking English. I can't help with routes as I assume you'll be crossing...

    Bubbling on arch! With pics

    Is this issue not covered by the body warranty ? How many years did you get with the B6, I thought it was 12, but may be wrong ? My understanding is that if the panel rusts through from the inside it's covered and Audi pay to fix it, I don't think a FSH is a stipulation either with the body...

    The limited edition and high end watch thread

    Love the Tag Monaco, classic timepiece . I have a Rolex Submariner 16610, bought it in 2010, it's one of last of this model as it was replaced by the ceramic bezel model that year, I tried the ceramic but didn't like the larger / chunkier case. Mine has a random serial number rather than the...

    Just wondering if it's still around, it was the first & only brand new car I've owned. Cost me just short of 20k in 1997. Sold it in 2002 in Gtr Manchester area.
