Hi there, while the A3 is a far better (and likely quicker) car, if you had the suspension set up on the saxo done well, take it easy in the audi for a while, it wont be as chuckable.

This, I hope his mother sees it and gives him a smack on the bottom!

Got mine done on Monday, they did however give me a 'free' check up and 'found' £1400 worth of work!!!!! The fact their recording sheets have the words 'found' and 'achieved' next to the costings tells you a lot about their business model and motivation focus on generating money. The only...

No I didn't check the airbag fitment, tbh I thought the two different types were round or shield, I didn't realise there was 2 different shield airbags, nevermind, hopefully lady luck will be with me, if not I'll have to buy one - d'oh. Do you (you being anyone who is reading this!) know of...

Thanks man, I bought the 3rd one down - woohoo - Just need to actually understand what else I need and how on earth I go about fitting it.... much reading required me thinks!

Hmmm, a scan you say? Where would I get one of those done, any decent independent garage or is it specialist? Yes, I have cruise control too.

Not a DSG so I'd need the extra module. Thanks for all the info guys, very helpful :salute:

Oh, and I also asked for a list of phones for which they sell a cradle for the dash mounted phone holder (of which I have one), he said they didn't have a list but if I get him the model of the phone I have then he would see what he could do - But I need a list to know which phone I can buy, grrrr.

Hi, I just went to my local Audi dealership to arrange a service (I've had the car a few weeks and want the first service to be at the dealership in case its missed any recalls). I spoke to the gent at the desk and he said a couple of things which seemed odd to me, is he right: - My car has...

Very nice indeed, I saw the exact same car in Barrow-in-Furness today! I thought, luuuuurvvvly - but I agree with you on the wheels front, those remind me of rx8 wheels (they are very nice btw, just not the best imo).

Those pics are of the R53 (the old one with the heavy thirsty engines) is that the one you are after? They are solid little motors and handle very well, R53's are v thristy in 's' form. I had the R56 (turbo) JCW one for a couple of years, loved it, very nippy and very economical. The only...

Thanks for the info guys, I'll keep a close eye on it and make sure I do a few longer journeys :yes:, Think I'll also get the cylinder compression tested for peace of mind.

Yeah, I mainly do short trips. How do short trips get water into the oil?

Hi, I've a 2006 2.0T, a couple of weeks ago I noticed a white film on the inside of the oil cap, I wiped it off and after approx 1k miles I've re-checked, there is the beginnings of another thin white layer of oil/water mayonaise. There isn't very much and I haven't noticed the coolant drop...

You ricer, lol.
