    Cleaning Paint Without Clear Coat

    Thanks Chris, I'll try the vinegar at the weekend, I guess there is no chance it will lift the paint.

    Cleaning Paint Without Clear Coat

    Just wondered if anyone has any tips on how to clean the paint in the engine bay which has not been clear coated. I keep getting water marks on mine, I think from washing the exterior, and cannot polish them out with SRP.

    Windscreen Trim Gets Water Spots

    I have already tried Wolfgang exterior trim sealant but it did not seem to make any difference. I'll try some of the aerospace sealant and see how that works. Thanks.

    Windscreen Trim Gets Water Spots

    I've noticed that the two black rubber strips that run down the exterior of the A-pillars on either side of the windscreen get water spotted after washing or even if it rains. Has anyone else got this problem and any suggestions on a fix?

    MMI Screen Clunk

    Has anyone noticed a slight clunk when the MMI screen comes up? Mine does it as the screen just gets to the end of its travel as it comes out of the dash.

    Oil Level Problems

    Yes, I let it sit a good half hour. It actually seems as if the dipstick is picking up oil as it goes down into the tube.

    Oil Level Problems

    Has anyone got issues reading the oil level on the dipstick? When I try, the oil from the dipstick tube runs down the dipstick and gives a false reading. Even after trying three times and drying the dipstick each time, I can't be sure where the level is.

    Window Washer Fluid Level

    Stupid question really but how do you know what level is in the window washer bottle and how much do you put into it to bring it back up?

    1.4 TFSI noise on cold start! not related to The Turbo rattle thread!!

    I don't think it is the same noise, mine does the start-up whine but only for about 2-3 seconds and I have a 1.8TFSI.

    New A3 S-Line Turbo Charger Linkage Fault at startup

    It just doesn't sound very Audi-like and it did not happen with my old 1.8T. The manual does say that there will be some noise due to hydraulic tappets but I don't think this sounds like that.

    New A3 S-Line Turbo Charger Linkage Fault at startup

    Has anyone pursued the whine noise at start-up which was apparently not linked to the turbo rattle?

    Brake Calipers

    I read somewhere that the brake parts were treated with Geomet(R) coatings but I cannot find the reference again. Has anyone seen this?
