Noticed today my fuel economy for last few days has dipped a bit on my 2009 2.7 TDI multitronic (from ~30 to ~25MPG) and is revving higher. Idle used to sit at 600 and a leisurely drive would rarely exceed 1000rpm, now it is sitting at 1400rpm on the move (even with no acceleration) and idling...

I need to change the oil pressure switch on my A4 2.7 B8 which requires special tool T40175 which is an articulated 24mm socket. Due to space limitations a normal 24mm deep does not fit at all. Does anyone know where I can purchase this from in the UK? Do Audi sell them to private customers...

Apologies, didn't notice 2nd link in parts database thread (first one is no longer working). Managed to find part number (059103602K) can anyone advise how crucial last letter is as I have found one which looks identical however part number (059103602D)

Does anyone know parts number for the lower sump pan on the 2.7 TDI ? And anywhere likely to have one cheapish? Can't find anything in usual places and don't dare call Audi this side of Christmas.

Yeah, simple AMI to USB adapter lead and picks up USB stick (needs to be formatted to fat32 though). Did originally have a hard drive plugged in but guessing it was on limit of power consumption as it was so unreliable, would constantly cut out, 32GB USB stick been absolutely fine.

I have MMI 2G with a 6 CD changer in centre console. This has only ever been used for a phone mount (kind that slots in CD slot) all my music is on a USB stick. How much grief would it be to just totally remove it? Wanting to put in wireless charging and original idea was to replace ash tray...

Quick bit of background, I had a bad motorcycle accident in April so my 2.7 A4 B8 was sat for a few months gathering cobwebs while I was unable to drive. Now I can drive again I've had a few issues. Firstly I have noticed an oil patch appear under car (parked in driveway and never had a spot of...

Yeah that pinch bolt was horrendous! A lot of heat done the trick though, one side I couldn't even turn the bolt with a ratchet without heating up the leg first, was totally seized. Can relax now for a year and 3 weeks (did it early for a change).

Less than 3k ago, well tbh been no sign of a fault whenever I've driven it so will see if it reappears, just seeing if anyone else had similar

Sorry... being an idiot there... ESP not EML Didn't notice it didnt connect to engine before clearing, 2nd attempt connected fine but code already cleared so no idea what that one was. Sunday,27,August,2017,12:24:22:05031 VCDS -- Windows Based VAG/VAS Emulator Running on Windows 10 x64 VCDS...

Along with suspension got a failure for ESP light being on for MOT (really bad timing as obviously wouldn't have taken for MOT if light was on) Basically never had this on before and wasn't on after test but sure enough VCDS showing 2 codes during MOT yesterday... On transmission... 2228 -...

Just the cheapest (Starline???) TRW's were almost double the price. As long as they last a few years (and barely do 5k a year now) I'll be happy lol

Just ordered a complete set both sides, was trying to do it on a budget but thats when things normally end up costing more lol, from euros with their current discount £110 for complete upper both sides so not too bad I guess. Well least it is not too bad a place to get some heat and a breaker...

Just failed MOT on offside front (front) upper suspension arm ball joint cover gone. Quick couple of questions... Anything griefy to watch out for changing this? Seen previous articles about avoiding a pinch bolt? Is that the top one? As obviously it will need to come out to swap this arm out...

Well 99.9% sure I have now fixed this, being an intermittent fault hard to say for sure but 3 days now and washers working every single time first time (before I was lucky if they'd work once first time normally would take a lot of messing about with stalk if I was lucky to get them working at...

I have a problem with my washers / intermittent wipers which comes and goes, typically as MOT is due in a few weeks it has suddenly got worse... I am 99.9% sure it is due to the stalk, especially the intermittent switch as can get them working again if I fiddle with this at times. Basically...

Mine is exactly the same put it down to fact it's electronic clutch rather than torque convertor so end up stop start as it's engaging and disengaging clutch.

Well ordered polisher and some 4 inch chemical boys pads (was thinking smaller maybe better to start with so I'm not trying to do too much at once?) but forgot about backing pad. Read should be smaller than pad and ideally 3.5 inch for 4 inch pad, but was hoping to get cracking tomorrow so was...

Lol true just give me a list of what to spend money on lol

Cheers, right now I'm off to bed before I spend anymore money! (and I've got to get up at 4)
