    EK60GFG S5 Stolen 4/4/18 EK60GFG

    Well I’m thinking say it’s been driven really hard for those few hours. Then you get it back, a week later something fails on the engine or gearbox. Could that be related to how it was driven when stolen.

    The fan blower doesn't work (2009 8P A3 SB)

    Probably need plugging in then. Next thing to try would be the controls. Do you have climate control? Can you get it to work by turning the temperature very high or low rather than using a dial?

    Winking sidelights? What's that all about?

    I had them on a previous car and they’re really good. Not necessary when you’re travelling at any speed but if you’re in somewhere poorly lit like most car parks then they help you see low down where you might hit a wheel off a kerb.

    EK60GFG S5 Stolen 4/4/18 EK60GFG

    Out of interest, say it’s stolen and has been driven like it’s been stolen, what happens? How do you know they haven’t damaged anything when you get it back?

I can’t take any site serious where they use odd words (THIS) in capitals as click bait. If I want to see an article written work experience kid then looking...

    They make life so much easier. Assuming you have a Sanef then you can use the left 2 lanes where you don’t have to stop.

    Help

    A click when turning would normally point to a starter motor issue although you may need to plug it into VCDS to confirm there aren’t any other issues first

    It’s the same in Switzerland. It’s about £30, I wouldn’t risk the embarrassment unless it was a lot more.

    Body kits

    There’s also the impact on resale value. You narrow your audience right down when you try to sell and a garage will often refuse a part-ex. I always try to think how it will look in a few years. There’s very few body kits that stand the test of time. Both in terms of looks and quality. I...

    If your car doesn’t have a spare then buy a tyre and take it with you. If you get a flat then it might be a hard size to get hold of.

    Strange driving habits you've developed...

    When I pull up to a junction I put the car into first. I sit and wait to go, as soon as it’s time to go, I put the car into neutral then back into first.
