    Replacing xenon bulbs

    The correct torx should be in toolkit in the boot in front of where spare tyre is stored. You tube videos where very helpful.

    Replacing xenon bulbs

    Thanks. Managed to do it in the end. Thought I might never get the driver side out as one of the bottom screws would not loosen. Got a bit of wd40 to it and eventually came free. Thought I might have to take out air intake which looked even more of nightmare. Light themselves were quite easy to...

    Replacing xenon bulbs

    Hi all, I am about to change my xenon bulbs. I have seen a lot of good tutorials explaining how to remove the entire head light units to replace the bulbs. It does look quite straight forward but would that cause any issue with the leveling of them as they may not be exactly in same position as...

    Help Please Brake noise

    Hi all I hope you can help. I had new brakes and discs fitted to my audi however shortly after they started making a squealing noise. I took the car back to the garage and they just cleaned them up and sent me on my way. The noise had gone but shortly came back. They eventually changed the front...

    Squealing brakes

    Thanks everyone for advice. I think plan is to ask them to to replace pads and discs because when purchased new pads and discs they came with warranty. I will also ask them to strip and rebuild but they will potentially do this if replace pads and discs. I will also ask them to add anti squeal...

    Squealing brakes

    So dont replace caliper which they say is sticking and therefore needs replacing. Instead ask them to strip and rebuild and even replace with new pads and discs or just new pads including some anti squeal shims to pit on pads?

    Squealing brakes

    Thanks for your reply. So this does not mean replacing the caliper then. I was told by the place that fitted the new pads and discs it was a sticking caliper therefore costing me more money. Is it worth me demanding they replace the discs and pads as they came with warranty first?

    Squealing brakes

    Thanks for your comments. That may explain the squealing noise when pressing on brakes. However that does not explain the rotary squealing noise that occurs when discs and pads warm up. This noise happens after about 30 min driving and not pressing down on brake pedal at all.

    Squealing brakes

    I find this all a but difficult to believe. On my previous audi a4 I had no problems at all. Please note that squealing noise also happens on wheel rotation once discs or pads warmed up and without pressing down on brakes. I had no anti squeal pads on my previous car. Squealing noises should...

    Squealing brakes

    Hi all A few months back I had all brakes and pads changed. Now after driving for between 30 mins and hour the brakes have a rotating squealing noise and when gently applying brake pedal squeal like crazy. I took them back to company that fitted them and informed them of problem. They cleaned...

    Stolen key fob

    I called local audi dealership in the end. They were extremely helpful and decoded stolen key straight away for free but think that is because they are doing a complete lock change for £600 under the insurance. Phew.

    Stolen key fob

    Hello all. Early hours of this morning we were woken by noise and found someone running out our front door. They had grabbed keys and were gone before I had chance to get downstairs and outside. How do i get the stolen key fob erased/upaired from my car? Is this a dealership job?
