    2.0 PD Tdi B7 A4 Fuel consumption

    Looks ok to me, these cars aren’t known for their frugality. My 3.0tdi is abysmal, I’ve never seen 40mpg. I feel special if I manage 20 round town. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Propshaft repair?

    Thanks. Yeah, I'll be keeping a keen eye out for cars being broken. I've found a local place doing refurbs but reviews are either 5 stars or scammer/avoid which doesn't fill me with confidence. The other places I've seen are haulage transmission specialists but some do racing/classic stuff so...

    Propshaft repair?

    Thanks Paul, might be a good enough excuse to do the DPF delete and remap next year [emoji6]. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Propshaft repair?

    Unfortunately not, it's the gearbox end. Chap that diagnosed it spotted that this is the last of the B7 Cabs so has a DPF fitted and apparently shoe-horned in to the only place they could find which is directly beneath the prop, with no heat shielding, probably cooking the prop and all the...

    Propshaft repair?

    Hi all, has anyone had or know of a rebuilt propshaft? Could do with a recommendation in the South East if you have one. Looking at £1200 + labour for a new one on my 3.0tdi cab, seems to be a pretty rare part even on fleabay. The guy spoken to at Audi parts dealer said he'd never sold one...

    Help please with jammed glove box door.

    Mine jams open quite frequently, not sure if it would be a similar thing. I have to pull the release as far as it’ll go and let it flick back into position on the springs over and over to get some movement to the mechanism. Might be worth giving it a few flicks...? Sent from my iPhone using...

    Can you get in behind one side of it if you pop the side panel off the dashboard? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Does seem to be some funny business here, it must be some kind of grounding issue since it's all the lights making it happen. Strange though as you've put an audio filter in... Which one did you go for if you don't mind my asking?

    That's a new one for me I'm afraid, can you isolate the issue? You could go through some basic fault finding if you have time - Does it happen only on dipped beam, does it do it when all lights off and you flash main beam, with/without side lights, DRL etc, try all the combos. If it's only only...

    Dr_Rick, I'm not sure anyone's had an truly easy time of it. I have Bose and my install was certainly not stress free, way more work than I was expecting and from what I've heard the non-Bose element certainly adds another headache to the equation. I'd still say it's worth it though in the end...
