Hi guys. Just wondered if someone can help identify a wheel. I had some audi BBS wheels fitted to my 2005 a4 2.5 tdi cabriolet. I've since sold them on but the guy reckons they don't fit his 2001 Audi TT. I sold them as TT rims as I've only ever saw them on them ??

He's prob showing you one that does fit....just sayin

These are 9Js mate. I've got them fitted. 235s clear no worries, I do plan to lower it though, and I've a pair of b5 perches waiting. Shame, I rekon the front will sit loverly on the b5 perches up front but the back wants an inch off.

Thankyou DrS, Ill have a nosey today and see. I did feel I'd rather run 245s but the rims are ****** wide !! I want the balance right, low, nice wheels but practical & useable !!

First to my aid again mike mate, thankyou. To be honest, they aren't too bad, the stretch is pretty minor and I don't like stretched tyres ( or should I say extream stretching!!) I'm going to go budgets as I don't mind them, and stretching can kill them quickly, was thinking XL as the walls can...

Hey guys. Finally got those wheels i wanted for my cabriolet. Picked up some 19" BBS Speedlines as fitted to the A5/A6 They currently have a pair of 235 / 35 19s with them but are slightly stretched - rim is a 9J. My question is, can i run a wider tyre? to get rid of the stretch, I do plan on...

I'd guess around £1500 for a decent job mate

@tazzy baby Hey mate. Yes, could well do. White smoke could be a completely kaput turbo aswell. I'd start by pulling the boost pipe off the compressor & feeling for play in the turbo, if there's lots of up& down play, and oil, don't forget to check/drain the intercoolers.

Reduce them !! There's various resizeing apps in the App Store.

Edit. No sooner have I got home from a weekend away, mines been scuffed. Such is life. May wasps infest their bumhole. Sorry to crash your thread !!

Sorry to hear of your terrible luck fella :(

No laughing here mate. More of a :( meh Hope you get it sorted without any fuss

They somtimes pick up on the rear main seal. I know myself that the v6 tdi is quite crammed in...well, mine is !!

Your onto the right sensor anyway. Location is unknown. Have you googled it ? You want to hope it's not like the 2.0 tdi where its behind the flywheel with an off centre Allen bolt...

Ps I've now got a 2002 a6 2.5TDi Quattro, it's a car we used for collecting parts etc and a customer T boned a dopey bird in it last week = parts raider. I'll try the usuals and swap the vac pump etc & report.
