Good luck with your car mate! Why not just get the grey lowers colour coates, it makes a hudge difference and safe you ££££'s, and yes yours is a b6, England & Ireland received the B6 around oct/nov 2001 were as the rest of the world (outside europe) seemed to get it around...

Thanks lads, a piece of cake, very easy to do, took only 5 minutes, daylight robbery if the dealer is charging that much, especially when they don't need to hook up the dianostics. Very impressed the way the DIS informs you which bulb has blow. Agains Ta for the reply's.

anyone here know how to access the non driver side rear light cluster on an avant, haven't had time to look myself, just thought I'd see if anyone here has any experience, going to change it tomorrow. Also will I have to plug it in to a diagnostic equipment to get rid of the message on the DIS...

Nice choice, I have a 2004 S-Line 1.8T 163bhp Avant on sport suspension, I used to own a 190 saloon, traded it for the avant, same reasons as you children, see if you can get a 190 with quattro, they are like hens teeth but there out there all the same, it will never match the M3 for pace but it...

Hello Terry, I had the same problem as yours on my 28000 mile 1.8T, kept topping up, had it pressure tested twice, neither showed up a leak, it turned out to be the water pump, two of the plastic veins had broken so I had it replaced, all sweet again. It cost €260 parts and labour, genuine...

Happens to me all the time but never when my wife drives, hmm.........still have no soloution only leave it open while you drive!!!!!

I had mine replaced by Autoglass and it wasn't OEM, but I have to say I've had no issues with it, its got the slight tent in the top of the glass and all the seals fitted back 100%. So I wouldn't be to Pi$$ed off if they don't supply glass with the logo. Be careful at the ring because I believe...

I've been looking through the ETKA online workshop manual and their references are - Soul black swing (dark grey) Platinum silk nappa goodwood green blue soul silver soul silver speed They refer to both leather and alcantara so maybe this might narrow it down to the colour you are after...

Looks great, even better when you colour code the bumpers, that will toatally transform your car, Dam I want a set of S4 reps for my Avant!

When they are genuine you will find the 4 ring logo under the centre cap, see pic for example, and usually there is an oem part number. Hope this helps!

S4 Avus wheels - £525 Looking good, I have seen both S4 grills on a Silver Avant and they looked very well so I would go for it, where did you get the weels for that price and did they include tyres? P.S. I fiited a S4 badge as well but I removed the 4 so its just an S badge as the S-line...

Spray the fog light surrounds black, they should look the business then!

I've driven behind a mates VW GT-TDI whose CAT had blown and the first thing that hits you is the really strong smell, like seriously rotten eggs, I had to overtake him before I got sick!!!

Good to hear yours is sorted, I have mine booked in for Thursday week, they suspect its the water pump too, its only done 28000 miles so its to early for the timing belt etc. hopefully this will sort it, just have to keep topping it up with coolant, figured out there is no leak its actually...

Lovely looking motor, love the colour of the RS6's, are they rep's and where did he get them?
