I know it's nowhere near where you live, but the Audi dealer in Stoke retro-fitted cruise for £260 inc VAT. This was about 6 months ago. Edited to say that it took them about 2 hours to do on a Saturday morning.

Not good. Sorry to hear that mate.

3 litres!! Is that all!! No wonder I'm refilling so often. Recently, with all the slush and salt spray, I run out after 2 weeks - 50 miles per day on the M6. The wife's Corolla's bottle must be twice the size of that! (Hope that doesn't sound dodgy?)

No, no xenons on mine. Hadn't realised xenon's had the headlamp wipers - that's even worse then? You must have refill every week?

[ QUOTE ] Dik, my mate from up the street has a 2.0 s line dsg and he gets around an average of 35-40mpg. Chris. [/ QUOTE ] That seems low for the 2.0 TDI? According to the DIS, the lifetime average for my 2.0 FSI is 38.3mpg. Surely the 2.0 TDI must average more like 45 - 50mpg?

I must say I've never had to refill my windscreen washer bottle so often on other cars before I got my A3. I seem to be re-filling every 2 weeks at present. The A3 has either got a very small bottle or the washer jets use a lot of water per go. Have any of you found the same thing this winter?

I know Audi-Sport.net is very friendly and good natured, but it's worth taking a look at this very important piece of case law: Linky It's always worth bearing this in mind before saying anything too excitable on cyberspace.

I've just Googled those Goodyear Eagle GSD3 F1's - I really like the tread pattern - looks cool! As my rear tyres have got loads of tread left, I don't know what to do. Would the handling go a bit weird if I put F1s on the front and kept the original Michelins on the rear for the time being...

I'm after some advise please: 1. My car is serviced according to the Audi Variable Servicing thing. The computer says the 2nd service is due in 5600 miles time, which will bring the total mileage to about 37,000miles when the service is due. I had a postcard today from the stealers, saying...
