    Had my Tiptronic serviced today

    I just had mine changed by Audi Swindon. Oil and Filter at £199. Thought that was pretty good!

    Remapped 1.8TFSI (120) still doesn't feel that quick

    Am I reading this correctly? 120bhp to 200+bhp on a stage 1 remap? Very unlikely?!

    Waxing your Car

    In my opinion you won't get better than Collinite 476s then protected with Sonax BSD.

    Remap - good/bad/ugly?

    I’d always be a bit weary of a company with unicorn in it.... My 7 year old is obsessed with them, and just had a unicorn party at the weekend.

    What did you do to your audi today

    Had to call out Greenflag today. Stuck in a rural village in Oxfordshire. Car wouldn’t start or anything. Bloke came out, and he turned the key upside down and it started! Well cheesed off cos I tried all that. Suspected key fob battery. So changed them, and see what happens! He said he had...

    Remap - good/bad/ugly?

    With a remap, you get what you pay for. I would say a reasonable price is around £400. Shark Performance are good at around that mark, and have been quoted £500 for APR. Anything less than £400 I personally, would be dubious.

    Service history online?

    My Audi has full Audi service history but cannot see anything online.

    Audi Extended warranty - anyone done it?

    That's an extreme case, and you would hope Audi would contribute towards that. It's that insurance feeling, but sometimes it can be a waste...

    Audi Extended warranty - anyone done it?

    Just put the money away in bank account each month as if you were paying for the warranty. Then if something goes wrong, you have the money. If nothing goes wrong, you have the extra cash. Winner both ways.

    Is she a keeper....?

    So you are undecided about keeping your car, but are also asking about alloy wheels for it. Think you have made your own mind up.

    S-Tronic Gearbox Oil Change

    Am I right in thinking this an Audi Fixed servicing price of £245? Any idea's what an Indy might charge?

    2.0 TFSI Known Oil Consumption problem - 2015 ongoing thread (2009-2011 models)

    So I have done 38 miles so far, and the oil gauge has dropped one bar from full.... Maybe interesting times ahead...there also seems to be a rattle somewhere.

    2.0 TFSI Known Oil Consumption problem - 2015 ongoing thread (2009-2011 models)

    Got the car back today. Been told to 'take it easy' for 500 miles. Not a single penny paid. They wouldn't give me a detailed job report for some reason, I think because there was no charge. They even listened to me not to clean the car! Let's see what happens...

    2.0 TFSI Known Oil Consumption problem - 2015 ongoing thread (2009-2011 models)

    So it’s in. They misplaced the test results, but eventually found them. Got an A5 tdi ultra as a courtesy car. Not very nice to drive in my opinion. Nice interior though.

    2.0 TFSI Known Oil Consumption problem - 2015 ongoing thread (2009-2011 models)

    Argh...car was supposed to be booked in today. Drop it off anytime they say after a phonecall yesterday. We will have a courtesy car available. Go in for half 7am. No cars available. None available until 6pm. WTF?! Let's see what they give me. I have told them it has to be A4 size or bigger.
