thoughts, the rear shocks need replacing so i have decided might aswell do the front and rear, are these a good set

Do i get 2 of these or do they come in dual packs? for the front and rear,and whats the difference in power between 255 and 288 (think those were the sizes)

econ light always on., anybody know as to why?

was told their a suspected air leak from the engine, would this be the pcv or something else?
 
Best advice I can give you if you need OE parts is head over to the ASN parts ordering system.
http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/support-tickets/list - Mike can also look up exactly the right parts for your car.

I happened to just get a new Maf but it turns out it makes no difference to my vcds logging (both go to same G/s) or fuel trims so have a used one going, if you are interested then message me. My used one is from a 2010 car, 55000 miles.

Econ - does your aircon need a regas?

Air leaks can be difficult to track down - what information was this based at and what are the VCDS block 32 fuel trims?

the link you provided gave me "The requested conversation could not be found."

also i spoke with my local garage (not audi) and they said the econ light likely needs the pressure switch replaced.....and possibly a re gassing, but definitely the switch since you cant switch it off.

couldnt give you much info about the air leaks because the tech at audio in salisbury were not exactly helpful, ie the poor lady that was dealing with me pretty much spent near an hour going back and fourth gaining info when they could and should have just noted the stuff down as i had already requested.

I have however emailed their service supervisor with questions in the hope ill get somewhere, because today i had some new spark installed but it still is feeling a bit rough which even the garage guy said when he took it for a test drive after correcting the steering.
