    Yep I think I will change it at some point, thanks mate. It's fine for now though.

    Thanks for the pics! Do you also by chance have a guide to what I would need to do to code these in? I haven't bought them from you yet but I have VCDS for the next couple of days and would like to do all the necessary coding in advance now if possible before I have to give it back! Thanks for...

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Thanks mate, I'm not too concerned about the strength of it as its a really good fit and holds the boot on just as well as any other method; it's more the legality I'm concerned about, and whether it would pass an mot! I'll probably change it before mot time just to be sure :)

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Thanks for all the help and replies! I ended up getting a stretchy boot rather than the genuine Audi one after speaking to a few people who have used them and had success. It's all done now, wasn't too difficult but did need an extra pair of hands when sliding the boot off of the fitting cone...

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Thank you, I'm picking up a kit from Audi at lunch time and will have a go at changing this afternoon. Does anyone know the hub nut torque for when I reassemble?

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Great, thanks very much for that! That method would allow me to change it without taking the driveshaft off completely, is that right? Does the cv joint just come off of the driveshaft with a bit of persuasion? You don't have to undo any bolts or anything? Thanks again!

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Thanks for that. If I used genuine Audi parts would I have to remove the drive shaft? I have a lot of miles to do in the next couple of weeks so want to get it sorted as soon as possible. Does anyone know if it's the same set up as any other Audis? I can't find a video or step by step guide of...

    A3 8P VCDS Questions

    Hi All, I have access to VCDS for one evening only on my A3 8p and I have a couple of questions! I have already set the DRLs to dim when indicating and I have enabled tear drop wiping of the rear screen, but want to also know the following: 1) Can I set it up so that if I get LED side lights...

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Thanks very much for that! I'm going to try and buy one from a motor factors tomorrow to get it changed in the evening. Can it be done without removing the drive shaft?

    Outer CV Boot Change Help

    Hi All, Had two new tyres fitted today and while the car was up on the ramps I had a look at my CV joints etc and noticed that one has split. I want to change the boot myself, does anyone have a guide I could take a look at? I have searched on the forum but can't find anything which is that...

    It's pretty funny actually as he already hates his BMW and is looking at other cars after only having it a couple of weeks! Awesome, sounds like you're having fun with it! Ahh yeah I think the DSG box is brilliant, I do a lot of motorway driving and if you get stuck in traffic it's just...

    I only went for a coffee..

    Very small world, I told him he should have bought it! It looked like a nice car, he didn't test drive it but I told him to drive it as I knew he would love it! I think the idea of saving some cash on fuel got the better of him though, but it worked out well for you! Did it have a service...

    Thanks trups. I'm trying to get hold of someone local who has VCDS, and if I can use it to code my DRLs to work as DRL and sidelight, I will most likely buy the Cree's you've mentioned there. Is that £28 per pair? And do you have any pictures of them in action?

    Yes quite possibly, if you could let me know the prices. If it's possible to just get the LED...

    Yes quite possibly, if you could let me know the prices. If it's possible to just get the LED DRLS and have them coded to also act as side lights, I would be interested in doing that. If not and the only option is to have the DRLS separate to the side lights, then I would go down that route...

    I only went for a coffee..

    Hi, are you in Yeovil by any chance? I'm sure I saw this car for sale there, at Highland Cars a few weeks back. My friend almost bought it but decided to go for the sensible option and got a BMW 1 series diesel instead! It's a nice car, I had a good look over it when it was on the forecourt :)

    Daylight Running Lights

    Next to your light switch, on the left are there two roller switches? One which is for dimming the instrument panel lights and one which says "DRL"? On my 2008 car, it has this and I can switch the DRLs on or off. I don't have auto lights though, and also yours is a facelift so they might have...

    Hi t8ups, do you have led white side lights and DRL LEDs for a 2007/8 A3? It's the one with bi-xenons, the DRL is a P21W bulb I think... If so, how much for those?

    Number Plate Light Screws

    Success, the PlayStation screws worked! M3 x 10mm, 1mm pitch. Cheers again

    Number Plate Light Screws

    Thanks for all the answers, although the one in the link is a 0.5mm pitch whereas mine is a 1mm pitch so not sure if that would fit. I've just taken apart an old broken PlayStation and I think a couple of the screws from in there will fit! Hopefully they will :)
