    6 Essential Tips for Seamless Car Transport Across States for Audi Enthusiasts

    I shipped my S5 across states last year, enclosed transport is a must for low-clearance Audis. One company didn’t even have ramps, which was a huge red flag. Always check insurance details, take photos before/after, and don’t assume they know how to handle luxury cars. I ended up switching to...

    Inner door rubber seal weatherstrip

    I used a generic bulb seal from Woolies Trim, about £20 for 3m. No leaks or wind noise, just match the grip size. Works fine, not OEM but does the job.

    Bitcoin and similar crypto currency trading.

    I messed around with crypto trading for a bit, mostly started out of curiosity like you. Honestly, unless you caught the early waves or have the patience to really research, it’s not as easy to make fast gains as people claim. I tried putting in small amounts and saw some wins and losses, but...

    Lumpy Idle and juddering on acceleration

    I'd suggest checking for any vacuum leaks. Sometimes a cracked hose or loose connection can cause those kinds of issues. Also, maybe give your injectors a look.

    New car Registration

    I get why that would be frustrating, especially if you're used to having a say in the registration. Some dealers still let you pick from a set list, but it seems like more are just assigning them to streamline their process. I guess if you're not into private plates, losing that small bit of...

    Coolant Rises When Cap Is Taken Off

    It sounds like your heater matrix might be causing the coolant issues. Bypassing it could be worth a try, like others have done. Getting a second mechanic's opinion might help too.

    Facelift S3 8V Stronic and belt/chain

    The 2016 S3 8V has a timing chain. The stronic clutch plates can last over 100k miles, depending on driving habits. Regular oil changes are good. If it drives smooth, you should be fine.

    What watch do you have?

    I have a Seiko 5, and I really like it. It's reliable, has a classic look, and isn't expensive. The automatic movement is cool, and it's been very tough. I wear it every day, and it works for both casual and dressy events. Recently, I found a replica Rolex for sale and decided to buy it for...

    Would you buy a car with missing service history?
