    Clutch Rattle

    Hello everyone. Over the last 25k miles or so my clutch has started to slowly make a rattle when the pedal is depressed. I have 125k on the car. There is no slip under power, no juddering when I set off, no noise at all with the pedal raised. Just this rattle when it's depressed. Unsure if...

    Mirror Glass

    I just noticed my passenger side one vibrating over the last week or so. After reading this post time to grab some glue! I assume I can just gently pry it out without taking the whole shroud off?

    Changing Head Unit

    Yup, use a plastic pry tools to release the AC panel from either side and remove. Then there is a single bolt for the radio.

    Isofix third tether anchor point

    I did. They said its not to be used on isofix main anchors without the Third Anchor also being used. It's only to be used with the seat belt mounting method instead when forward facing. Having looked at it though I think I may go with the two main anchors, the seat belt through as well as that...

    Isofix third tether anchor point

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I have emailed Joie as their own website states our seat is fully isofix compatible with my A6 so awaiting their nod on the two main fixing points without the third mount. I can also forward face mount the seat with the seat belt so may throw that on as well as...

    Isofix third tether anchor point

    Long story short, my eldest child's car seat has been rear facing for about a year and he is now of the age/weight where we can flip it round and forward face. Rear facing it doesn't have isofix so we have been using the seat belt to mount it but forward facing it does have isofix. I hadn't...

    GPS no fix

    Sorry to drag up my thread from May, but incase anyone finds this in the search or by Google. I bought a stand alone GPS receiver for £9 as I didn't want to pay nearly £100 for a refurbed shark fin! Fitted it today and stuck the puck it to the top of the glove box. All working properly once...

    GPS no fix

    Thankfully I have an Avant so getting it out wasn't too bad yesterday (after I posted this). No obvious sign of water ingress but when I unplugged it the number of available satalites shot up, only to go down again when the antenna was plugged in. So it's fair to say it's knackered! Will try...

    GPS no fix

    I noticed today I have an issue with my. RMC unit in that it's receiving no GPS data. Initially I thought it must be the antenna but in the green screen the unit is displaying details, enough to get a lock/fix at least in theory. It would appear going on the GPS stored date that I had a fix last...

    Google maps gone

    From my understanding Google changed the way Google earth works and Audi as a result only now support the overlay on MY19 or newer. That said this was just an overlay on top of the maps, so all that's missing is the satellite imagery overlaid on the maps which are stored on the cars MMI.

    Heated wing mirror fault - one side

    Sorry to hijack this thread, but is it possible to retro fit the heated auto dimming mirrors? I have heated but drive a lot at night so dimming ones would be a very nice upgrade!

    Phone holder suggestions please

    Yeah, I had originally planned to remove the 12v socket and use an old in line fused harness I had from my previous car and take power from the back of the socket. But getting the 12v socket out is a pain without the proper removal tool and you can't get to the back of it without removing the...

    Phone holder suggestions please

    It doesn't show in that photo but I ran a USB cable behind the center console and routed it to come out near the phone on the right hand side.
