Hey up, My engine management light has come on, showing 08213 fault code. The car is Audi A3 Sportsback (CBAB Engine) 2.0ltr TDI 140bhp. Anyone dealt with this before or know the best way of fixing it? I hear it can be jammed up and mapped out? Other options welcome? Thanks

Wing mirrors now fixed, now its time to look for a front grill.....not sure what type i like.....anyone got any pictures of their Black A3's with a nice front grill?
