Hi all I've just purchased a 2011 60 plate A6 2.0 tdi Special Edition. I know it has the CAHA engine but have read lots about issues with the cylinder head. I've tried to spot the head reference number but couldn't see it. Can anyone help please in terms of weather this year/engine wouldn't have...

Apologies wrong section. I'll repost

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I was thinking the same thing but they were thinking more the diff! I was under the impression that if you turned right for example, and the noise was coming from the right side then its the left wheel bearing and visa versa. I turn right and the noise is on the...

I've got a pair of michelin tyres on not long ago and they both look to be ok and a garage did the wheel bearing swing and wabble test and said the wheel bearing was good.

Afternoon all....not been on here for a while but now back with Audi. I have a quattro manual 6 speed and it makes a humming noise and gets louder as the car gets faster. Even rolling say at 50mph in neutral, the humming is there and loud. It all seems to be coming from drivers side corner at...

Right...i have managed to get some front calipers and carriers off a 2003 S4. I have 2 questions if anyone can help: 1 - Do i need to replace the hubs from that donar car or will mine be fine? 2 - Will my current 17" Audi sport 5 spoke alloys be fine over these brakes? I have the standard...

Will these go straight onto my car without any other parts required? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/122421173294?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT thanks

Thank you that's great advice. I think i will just surf the WWW to see what i can find even if its the fronts for now as theyre ready to go!!

Hi all The front discs are shot on my car and now im replacing discs/pads, i was thinking a good time to upgrade them if possible. Basically, can anyone advise on what brakes i can use under the standard 17" wheel? Im referring to other VAG brake setup maybe and if so, what parts will i need...

Hi and congrats on the new motor :) I recently bought one and it was rough on idle but only intermittently...it was overdue a timing belt change so the first thing it had done was the cambelt, water pump and the pulleys. The guy who did the job told me that one of the pully kinda fell apart in...

Ahhh yes, the issue was the actual Hazard Light switch. I have disconnected the switch and no more battery drain. I will purchase a new one from the dealers and see what happens when i connect it up. It was randomly trying to lock the doors too and stopped the doors from locking when i tried...

It's cool people, problem now fixed :)

Hi people I have recently purchased a 2003 2.5 tdi quattro. It has a couple of electrical issues like the hazard lights randomly come on whilst driving....no specific time intervals but very annoying.....at the same time i hear a click noise from the 'lock switch' that the driver has on...
