    A4 B6 2.5TDI V6 (Power loss/Noise)

    So im assuming that means the Oil Level Sensor is faulty? Or does it represent another sensor entirely? Ill run a compression test on it when i get my hands on the equipment too, to get a general idea of how its performing. Ill also have ago at an EGR delete, from what im reading i can just...

    A4 B6 2.5TDI V6 (Power loss/Noise)

    Hey Abyrne153 Thanks for your input, when i last borrowed a friends VCDS the only codes i had were relating to the oil sensor (which is a yellow warning light by the way), and items relating to other electrical issues relating to Headlights and Bulbs. I've had a look at the turbo from both sides...

    A4 B6 2.5TDI V6 (Power loss/Noise)

    Hey, Service history was pretty immaculate, had alot of money spent on it over the years, however it has done over 160,000m now. Had some comments from other people outside the forum saying its dead and propper worn out, but i cant tell personally. Indeed, some expert opinion would be appreciated!

    A4 B6 2.5TDI V6 (Power loss/Noise)

    Just opened her up. Cams are fine almost no wear it seems. Also took alook at the turbo and no signs of catching or fouling parts. One area I did find concerning is the injectors. They are totally caked. Will have a go at.cleaning them. (could this be a contributor or the main source...

    goodbye b6!

    Id be interested in a few bits depending on pictures, and usually Bumpers, interior, wheels and engine parts are fairly sought after on here. For me if you could show some pics of Wheels, and general car in and out, id let you know what i might take. What was the collision damage? Did it affect...

    decrepit A4 2.5 Quattro. Options?

    Im having the same issue with my 2.5 2002 V6 Auto Quattro, previously had a big loss of power which i'd originally attributed to a possible Turbo failure (however this seems to not be the route of the problem). Would cams cause a considerable loss of power? I will investigate as most of you...

    Advice Needed On Clutch A4 1.8 T

    FYI If your vehicle is standard spec with little or no performance modification you SHOULD fit original Clutch and DMF. Solid Mass Flywheels (Single Mass), are designed for applications where the specification has changed, something people dont appreciate is that the DMF is designed for a...

    Multitronic Oil

    Just to give you some insight: If this is the ZF 6HP Gearbox (I work for ZF by the way), then you can either purchase the oil from TPS/VAG at a premium, or purchase in the aftermarket (same oil) under its original branding on ZF Lifeguard Fluid 6. (ZF Manufacture majority of Audi Automatic...

    Meyle HD control arm kit

    Well as you may have already gathered i work for ZF which owns Lemforder, Sachs and Boge (all OE brands supplied into VAG etc). Indeed i agree, these products do have a place in the market for older vehicles, but the Lemforder suspension kit for this platform isnt that much more expensive...

    Meyle HD control arm kit

    Just a quick question...you do realise that Meyle do not manufacture these for Audi right? They are purely copy/pattern products hence the cheap price. For example, the original equipment for VAG and especially on the Multi Link platform is made of airplane grade aluminium F50. Which is...

    Meyle HD Control Arm Set

    Well lemforder will always be more expensive because its OE lol... But none the less, the difference is with the OE that you get what was originally designed for the car. E.G. Lemforder arms on this multi link system are designed to bend in an accident rather than snap. So when you pay that bit...
