    Can you pair 2 bluetooth phones simultaneously?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to have 2 phones paired at the same time using the latest MMI system? Our VW Tiguan allows this - so I can pair my work and personal phone at the same time and receive calls on either. However it seems that an Audi needs to have the optional Phonebox...

    Charlie, If it was none of the things that you mentioned, then what was the actual cause?

    Help please - Fine tuned cam timing but I've screwed up! (TDI BKD)

    Yep - I was very relieved! :) Sharkie, I've never noticed any issues starting it. If I recall correctly, increasing the torsion value did help smooth things out somewhat but it increased fuel consumption as well. Not sure if anything on this thread will help you...

    Help please - Fine tuned cam timing but I've screwed up! (TDI BKD)

    Haha! Every time I fill up at at T**** I get a bit twitchy ;) I didn't ever get rid of the juddering - but to be honest I couldn't be bothered tinkering anymore after the above scare. Car runs great though! It's done around 90k and still pulls like it's brand new. I don't think the juddering is...

    **RESOLVED** Firstly, went to ATS over the weekend and they tested the battery. They said all power tests looked good but there was a note just saying "RECHARGE". So, the car went in yesterday for a service (had it booked anyway) - and asked them to sort out the noisy belt. Turns out the...

    I also thought that... but I can't find the email for the transaction... can't even remember which online retailer I bought it from!! :( I just had it tested at National Tyres (the chap at ATS was too busy) - results: Battery test: 12.56V Starter test: 10.80V Charging Test: 13.43V Result...

    Yeah, I did find another thread about the BKD being without DPF. I'll look to replace the battery... £70 is worth the punt. If that fails... then will consider replacing alternator. Thanks... again :)

    RPM at idle increasing to 1000rpm. Also some VCDS errors codes.... help please.

    Yep... good point! Any idea if there is a simple method that I can tell if the battery has a dead cell? A quick Google tells me its best to take it to an auto shop... bit of a pain. I'll have to find one willing to test it for me.

    Thanks Lee :) The coolant bottle was replaced on Tuesday - sensor and all. I've had some good runs to / from work which should be sufficient to charge the battery... am I right?

    Hi all, I'm looking for some help please. I'll summarize the issues from the beginning: April - Coolant sensor warning light starts coming on when starting car. Didn't notice any other problems so ignoring until I get time to look into it. A few weeks ago - Started car after 2 week...

    A3 TDI 2005 juddering at idle

    Agreed! This whole forum is fantastic! I've managed to get the juddering fixed, had cruise & mfsw retrofitted and not to mention the hours I've spent just reading / learning about all sorts of nonsense along the way! ;) Anyway, I've made my final tweaks to the cam timings and this is how it...
