    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Seat decals and puddle lights fitted, glovebox hinge replaced as well. Appreciate the puddle lights may be marmite, but I think they work on the cab.

    Hi. I took apart my s4 b7 cab the other day to attempt the siren repair as the alarm does not work, only flashing lights. Low and behold I got to the siren location to find NO SIREN! I have picked a compatible VAG one off eBay, confirmed as working by seller, but when connected to the car it...

    Cracked Alloy, do I need a new tire?

    guys, thanks to a Herts pothole, I had a crack on the inside of my 19"'s. Had this repaired to a great standard by Himen Engineering in Edgware.

    Dealer Fit iPod Cable problems...

    Hi, I have the dealer fit iPod cable in the newly acquired motor, but cannot seem to get it to work. It is the lightening lead that sits in the glovebox and disappears behind the changer. The changer and all other bits work fine. The head unit is an rns-e navigation plus with the 2 sd slots. I...

    A4 no heat from driver vent or driver side windscreen vent.

    Thanks. Any particular grease? Also, the driver side temp flap motor is a ****** to get at from the driver footwell. Any specific techniques to access that one,mor is it just a small 90 degree socket and patience? Ian.

    2003 A4 1.8T (163) Oil Issues.

    Hi Stu_m, thanks for that. Just spoken with mechanic and he is not keen on the idea of a refurb of this turbo, as all they rebuild is the core and so the housing etc is still 80k's old. Also, best rebuild price (essex turbos) is £444 inc VAT, so for the saving i may as well get a spanking new one.
