Hi Andy Thanks for your help just done it. Removed head unit and there is a mini loom that runs of the speaker main loom. The mini loom connector is cliped to the frame in the aperature behind the head unit (to the top at the left), from there it is the only mini loom that runs toward the...

cheers again Andy Was hoping it was going to be easy and its sounds like it is. I thought the wiring split may have been buried deep in the wiring loom but it sounds like it is just at the back of the head unit so hopefully a ten minute job. Thanks again

Had a look again this morning at the grill above the centre speaker in the dash, it is quite small and maybe the speaker cannot be lifted up and disconnected this way ? Is there an easier way of disconnecting this speaker ? Can anybody help I have a long journey on Sunday and want to...

Having recently changed the front mid speakers and tweeters I now want to disconnect the front centre dash mounted speaker. Can I just prize the grill up the way To access it or is there a knack or trick to access the speaker ? The centre speaker just sounds outclassed and shrill in the new...

Thanks for all your responses. No horror stories then ? All the guys that have done something with the 140 cr 2.0 tdi whether a remap or tuning box have only got positive thing to say which is all good. I think now I maybe leaning towards a tuning box, which one is best ? And which one is the...

I understand your Point reddejavue in the past I have had cars which are full blooded sports cars and my last car cost around 42 K so I am not looking for miracles or to be a boy racer in a diesel. Please take this in the manner it is intended - You said in your post that if you need more...

Had my 2009 A3 sline 2.0 tdi 140 cr stronic now for 2 1/2 months and love it. I nearly got it remapped before Christmas (bluefin or revo) but was put off by quite a few posts saying that the turbo on the common rail 140 is guaranteed to self distruct if any kind of tune is applied ? Now...

Answer to my question "is it worth replacing my front speakers ?" YES ! It now seems like a stupid question. What a pile of c#$p oem non Bose mids and tweeters are !!! I now have more clarity, punch and no distortion at decent volume levels. A big thanks to andymac for the speaker baskets...

Hi guys Was considering a tuning box or remap at the end of 2011, I have a 2009 2.0 tdi 140 cr S tronic, almost bought but a few people posted that any kind of tune to the 140 cr would destroy the turbo. This naturally put me off. Having seen this post I am now tempted again, I had a Spider...

Just received the mdf speaker baskets and they look really good, I am guessing that you are the eBay seller I bought them from Andy ? I am aiming to fit them some point this week, cannot wait to hear the difference ! I originally bought the j l xr650 csi components for my S2000 but never got...

Cheers Andy I will just unbolt what I see and gently pull the panels to remove as I cannot find any exploded diagrams or guides to do this. I might try and run new speaker cables into doors and a pillar, see how I go. Ta

Hi There after now deciding to replace my front speakers i need a guide to show me how to remove lower dash panels on drivers and passengers sides and also the panels to the side so i can access the speaker wires and install new crossovers for the new speakers. does the standard speaker setup...

Door card clips part numbers ? I have found a couple of places on eBay where they sell the door card clips but I need the part numbers to get the correct ones does anybody know what or where I can find these for an A3 2009 3 door ? Cheers

Cheers Andy I have ordered the mdf baskets now. Is there an easy place to mail order the clips from as I am 45 miles from nearest Audi dealers ? Do the a pillar tweeter trims just prize off or is there a knack ? Thanks

I have a 3 door A3 2009 sline non Bose, last month I fitted a pioneer f30bt head unit and I am very happy with it, but I cannot help but Feel that the oem front speakers are being shown up by the better quality amp in the new head unit. I have new a set of J L audio cr650 csi component...
