now sold :crying:

After almost 6 years of ownership, the time has come to let go of my pride and joy. Will be listing it elsewhere but would ideally like someone on here to take over. It has been meticulously maintained throughout my ownership, with no expenses spared on tasteful modifications and upgrades. The...

a new battery (with a high CCA) solved this exact issue on mine.

First garage told me to change the master cylinder for £100+ ! but they were just some backstreet cowboys - doubt anyone on here will go to them. i only went as i needed it done on the day, and thought it wasnt so hard to change - big mistake yeah, definately. complete monkeys! + thanks for...

update for anyone following this: Turns out the calipers were put on upside down (bleed nipple pointing down) and rear caliper wasn't air-tight :keule:. Master Cylinder was perfectly fine - proves its always worth getting a second opinion.

Right, so the MS was bled, but the problem is still there. They are refusing to accept liability for the "Broken" MS, claiming it was "already weak" and flushing the system has caused it to fail.

a picture of hand gesture for the ticket wardens to see :nyah:

I couldn't get ch/lh working on my '06 a3 for almost a year. I had no idea what I was doing wrong as I followed the guides religiously. But it's all sorted now & fully working thanks to @Ash187 who managed to fix it yesterday in less than 2mins! He also sorted out a few other bits of coding and...

I've been getting quotes of around £120-150 for the front bumper, and same prices for the rear

+1 for Bosch. My valeo blades started streaking after just 3 weeks.
