    A/C

    So I realised that my A/C isn't blowing out the cold air that I'd like for the 30º+ weather and took it to a garage on Sat to get it checked out. I didn't have much time to look around and these guys were going to do it within the next 2 hours. Used to take my previous car there but I always had...

    A5 Black Edition Plus - The Mythos

    Hi guys. Recently purchased A 2016 A5 Black Edition Plus and been making some modifications so I thought I'd make a small thread that hopefully not only helps me out but also inspire others. This is as it sits now, with recently added private plates on. Can you guess what G9 might stand for?

    Show me your low.

    Hey guys.. I've got an A3 8P 2006.. I just bought some coilovers.. went for the JOMs and just waiting for them to arrive. I had the impression that going 45mm low is more than enough until I spoke to this guy that had it 75mm and it doesn't seem TOO low compared to what I envisioned at 45mm...

    A3 8P 1.9 TDI 2006 Lowering!

    Hi again peeps. Plenty of threads that helped me out, but it doesn't compare having your own thread with specifics. My 8P needs lowering. I'm currently on standard 18" S-Line wheels, and I'm thinking of lowering it. I don't have a massive budget, and I'm not willing to spend loads so I'm...

    Shakingat 60+mph

    Hi guys, Quickie. My A3 8P 2006 is shaking at 60+ mph and stops close to 75-80mph. I took it for balancing, tracking via Kwik Fit... done the tire pressure to both 35psi and 32 psi for my 18", but it still does. MOT required to change what they're called 'arm brackets (?) and I did... It's...
