    Ended up ordering one from Germany, hopefully I'll have it some time next week.

    Another heater recirc flap post...

    Right, went out in the car today and I can confirm it makes no difference which vents are open. I pretty much cleats have the blowers on the first setting but as soon as you hit about 60mph it said the fan is t there regulating it anymore and the wind just blows straight through the ducting as...

    MFSW button removal

    Yeah, like I said above, the ones in eBay all seem to be in Germany!? I don't know why nobody in the UK wants to ever break a steering wheel. Unfortunately the one you have linked to is the wrong part, it has three connectors whereas Rev. C only has the white one.

    My suspicions were confirmed... £160 odd from Audi.

    MFSW button removal

    Right, finally got round to removing this today. I was checking the wiring harness was seated correctly when it pulled the connector off the pcb! I'm assuming that would the cause of the intermittent connection. Anyway, I managed to prize the switch open (did t have testing torx head required...

    Another heater recirc flap post...

    Ok, maybe I'll experiment with not having it set to the screen then. Like I say, I only really have it on the screen, I find the face vents dry me out a bit (I'm a sensitive kinda guy!). I've owned a variety of cars previously... The only one that ever did strange things with heating and...

    Another heater recirc flap post...

    Hmm, not sure but I agree with what your saying about it feels like the air comes straight in from outside. I never have mine set to auto, usually have a mix of AC and Econ. Always have blowers on the screen unless it's rely hot in which case I use the face vents to circulate the cold air more...

    Another heater recirc flap post...

    Well, if that's the case then I'm really surprised. I have never owned a car that has suffered with this before. A bit of wind noise is fine, but this sort of wind noise is something I've never experienced.

    Another heater recirc flap post...

    Hi all! I've searched and read a lot of posts regarding this but they never seem to draw any conclusions!? It's regarding the amount of wind noise that seems to enter the cabin when you do more than about 60mph. If I hit recirc it goes quiet and removing the pollen filter confirms that the...

    ******, I was hoping it would pull out the front of the wheel....

    MFSW button removal

    Hi all, very quick and easy question. How do get the buttons out of the MFSW? My left hand one that skips tracks and scrolls through the phone book etc. doesn't have a very good connection. I want to whip it out and see what's going on but don't want to end up breaking it! I have searched, but...

    Oil Light... Should I Be Worried?

    Well, it's been a few weeks now and I've gotten into the habit of checking the oil once a week and seemingly randomly having to open and close the bonnet to clear the light.... oh well, only another 5.5k till it's due a service, I'll get a new sensor fitted then!

    2 Of My Favourite Things :)

    Nice bike :icon thumright: Mines just an ally Defy 1. Only had it since October, but I'm hankering after something a bit more special already. And by special, I mean carbon.

    2 Of My Favourite Things :)

    I want to get some roof bars for my car to pop a bike rack and/or roof box on, although I was quite pleased that my road bike will slot in the back of the car without dismantling... it is a bit of faff removing my daughters car seats though. And I wouldn't be as keen to do this with my MTB...

    Oil Light... Should I Be Worried?

    Ah yes, good point. These lovely intermittent faults that won't present themselves when you want for a mechanic, but you can bet you life they'll pop up when you really don't want them to!

    Oil Light... Should I Be Worried?

    Well, after the light coming on again, I didn't want to add even more oil so got a mate to double check the oil with me. After taking the **** out of me for not being able to see the level, he couldn't see it either! We both agreed that it definitely had oil in so suspected a dodgy sensor. Quick...

    Oil Light... Should I Be Worried?

    Crap! It came on again today so I splashed another 100ml... better try and check the dipstick properly tonight before I end up massively over filling the engine!

    Oil Light... Should I Be Worried?

    Hi folks. I've only had my Avant for a few months so it hasn't needed a service or anything since I've had it. Yesterday afternoon the oil level light popped up when I went to the shops, was still on when I came out of the shops and started the car so I drove the 1 mile back home and dug out...

    Newbie With A Rattley Old Estate And A List Of Questions....

    You gotta take the rough with the smooth, the back seats look like this! jdp1962, I've tentatively poked my arm into the bumper, it feels like the sensors are in line with the crash bar though, so access isn't great. Might help if I knew what it looked like behind here, so I know what I'm...

    Noise Through Air Vents At Speed

    I'd just asked about this too in my thread. It doesn't matter how low the blower speed is, at sixty-ish plus it's like they've turned themselves up a couple. Only seems to be an issue on Econ, with the AC or recirc on it seems fine.
