Any news 2003S4 ? SBK

Any news ? I spoke to a gearbox specialist yesterday and he knew all about audi's tiptronic gearbox problems. He told me the best thing to do is for me to bring it up to them, and let them scan the box with thier diag machines. It could be anything from a iffy solenoid, torque converter, to a...

What did you pay for your car ? I paid £3800 for a 51 plate 105K miles, green, tiptronic allroad. Just had new tyres, new wishbones, taxed / mot. Im considering putting it on ebay if there could be big ££££ on the horizon. Seems this model / year of tiptronic has issues, been sniffing...

No :-) mind you, Ive only had the car for a week, so cant compare it. I was aware that it had a air spring issue, as I brought it from a mate who was trading it in for a new VW. The first I was aware of this problem was when I connected it too the VAG.com diag system. I dont see any warning...

Hi there What type of oil do I use for :- engine, gearbox, diff, transfer box, coolant ? Is there a spec sheet I can look at ? Cheers SBK

Thanks. A friend has got the VAG com software and will be connecting up this weekend. Where abouts is the port for the connector ? Have you got an allroad ? Someone suggested the leak could be from the pipes / compressor and not the air bag. Not sure what the vag com software will show...

Thanks mate. I'll email them. How long did you wait for the parts ? SBK
