I find that for sealents CarPro Reload does a decent job but Bilt Hamber is the best! Recently purchased some Meguiars Quick spray wax for in-between major washes and that's been a good go to one for me.

Looking around for a brake caliper with electronic handbrake motor attached but not finding any in stock anywhere, probably due to the current situation, wondering what the best websites for carparts are for Audi's to have a look for any in stock? any help appreciated! Need the drivers side...

I recently had mine in for the bottom arm bushes to be replaced, it's been making this creaking/clunky noise, had it replaced and it's stopped doing it now, the bush was starting to come out of it's holdings, they picked it up on the health check while doing the timing belt.

I not long had this done to mine, on a really windy day, painting the masonry to a house next door, a big company was doing it luckily, so managed to get them to pay for an "enhancement detail" which set them back £440! Removed all the paint and car looked amazing afterwards, kind of did me a...

The dealers are strange, I just had the timing belt and water pump changed on my 63 plate A3 and I had just had the brake fluid change done at Newcastle Audi 2 months prior and noticed the price match jargin on the booklet they handed me with the documents in, I asked if it applied to the timing...

@Steven87 Never thought I'd see another chap from Bedlington on here! :rock: I recently used a guy my dad has used for years and services the majority of my family's motors, DK Auto services travels around in a van and has his own garage at his place he can pick up and take the car too if...

I've just finally changed over the tyres on the rear of mine after 52k (on a 63 plate) on the original continentals that came with the car! no cracks or perishing and still had 2mm of tread left but didn't want to leave it down to the legal limit! Probably should have went with the same for the...

Needing to know what brake system my car is, it's an 63 plate A3 S-line 1.6 TDI and looking at getting the front and rear brakes replaced but I'm needing to know which fitment before I order... From what I can see I have 3 options which are: Lucas Teves Ate - Teves Anybody know? Thanks :)

I have to say the leather S line seats in my 63 plate S line looks in better nick than your's and mine as 50k on it, i just get in and out of the car naturally without making sure I dont damage the seat when I get in and out, I do wonder if your wiping of the seat everyday is doing more harm...

My A3 does this too when I go over bumps and not when i mount kerbs etc, done it since i bought it, had it a year and it's a 63 plate. Unfortunatley mine isn't under warranty anymore so can't really get it looked at now.

Also I should clear up that I'm not saying all Audi's wheel design's are bad, some of them i absolutely adore and some of the wheels posted on this thread are stunning! :hearteyes:but I think the "choice" of good alloys on the recently released models and re-design's is a bit thin on the ground...

I think you've actually hit the nail on the head for me there! I was looking at the A5 and they are all like multi 23443463423 spoke alloys, apart from 2 5 spoke alloys which had nothing to them and they both looked incredibly similar to each other.

Wanting to find out if Im the only one thinking this or if other's are too but across the new ranges of the A3 FL and the new A5 etc I've noticed the alloys to choose from on any trim level a bit...... bland, boring, basic? I find myself preferring the alloys that were on offer previously...

Thanks for the suggestions guys, ended up booking it in with Tyneside Audi who are going to get it off, if they get it off with conventional means they aren't going to charge and they are also giving it a health check and a wash and hoover for free even if I don't have to pay anything.

Guys wondering if anyone has had this issue before... front passenger side locking wheel nut is jammed on, tackled it myself and had no luck, took it to a garage to take it off and he sheered the locking wheel nut key, got another one from Audi and tried with a cross wheel brace with 2 people...
