I have a 2004 avant that has had some boot motor issues.
I've had to use the emergency boot pull release so many times, that it has now snapped.
It's a thin piece of red plastic about 300mm long with a loop on one end that you pull to open the boot lid from inside the boot. I can't seem to find...
As the title says, my 6 speed manual gearstick does not spring back to the centre position when you push it left or right and then let go. It never has done. I've got used to it, but I'd prefer if it did.
Has anybody else had this problem?
Is there some kind of spring mechanism under the...
Morning, all....
I've got a 2004 1.9TDI Avant Sport 130hp & it pretty much got condemmed at it's MOT yesterday :3sadwalk:
Long story short, pretty much every suspension component (Front & rear) needs raplacing, so I may as well do the lot & put new shocks on it while I'm at it. I'll carry out...
Hi, all
I'm on the hunt for a mint S4 Avant with a manual gearbox., if they even exist anymore! Not black though! :laughing:
Willing to pay good money for the right car, but proving very difficult to find with a manual box, as buyers probably opted for an RS4 instead.
Preferably one that's had...

Well guys, after just speaking to a guy at eibachshop.co.uk apparently eibach don't do the sportline kit for a 2007 2.0TDi quattro, which is a bit annoying.
Any other suggestions on replacement springs that will actually drop the car a bit lower than the standard S Line setup?
Is it just me or...
I see that genuine centre caps are around £130/140 a set!!! and googling just brings up a million ads for cheap ones on ebay.
Has anybody bought and fitted a cheap £10 set from ebay? If so, were they any good or just a load of rubbish?
Just replaced the rear brakes on our A3 TDi Quattro and there's some serious air in the brake lines so they need bleeding.
Does anybody know if this can be done the old fashioned way with a bit of up and down pedal action, or will it need to be connected to a special piece of kit that will be...
Has anybody bought a non genuine replacement key fob case that's fairly good quality? If so, where did you get it?
I can't imagine that the £3 ones on ebay would be very good!
Thanks
I appreciate that this is an old thread now but I've literally just done this myself to our 2007 TDi Quattro 170, so it might be of some use to somebody.
Our car has the larger 286mm discs and I can confirm that if you want to replace discs this size, the calliper carriers will definitely need...
Well earlier today I managed to speak to somebody at the DVSA (formerly VOSA) and he confirmed to me that there is no legal requirement or any official test for a vehicle that has been put back on the road after it has been declared a category S or N total loss.
It's entirely dependent upon...
HI all
Despite only having very minimal suspension damage and a small dent, our lovely A3 Quattro was recently declared a category S total loss due to a very overzealous repair quote of £3600 from the insurers bodyshop!!!
Anyway, we've bought it back and Im just changing over a couple of parts...
As the title says, When getting insurance quotes, do we have to actually tell the insurer that our car has previously been registered as a Cat S or will they automatically know that from the vehicle info they can pull up from the registration number?
I don't recall it being a specific question...
Sounds great Rich, I fancy doing a road trip or two myself this year. Not sure where yet though.
I'd like to do one of the 4-5 day rally type things across Europe, they look fun!
Hello all!
I could do with checking a few things on our A3 through VCDS but I don't have it, is there anybody that has very good VCDS knowledge that could help me out?
Thanks
