    Thanks for the advice but I have now sold the car to a Bulgarian dealer for scrap!

    2008 Allroad scrap value only?

    130K miles since I bought it new (£38.5K) in 2008. Both front air struts needs replacing together with most of the front suspension arms. Here is France, where the car is now registered, Audi have quoted over 8K for parts plus labour for the work, excluding anything else they find while doing...

    Crankshaft pulley gone off

    This happened to my 2008 3.0TDI Allroad a couple of years ago. I had it fixed in France by Audi and it cost about 2,000 Euros. Hope this helps.

    Sun visor clip broken

    It’s quite depressing when you look back at what you got rid of and what it’d be worth now. I sold the yellow CS after spending a fortune restoring it to original spec plus LSD, KW adjustable suspension, cage and I can’t remember what else. I did quite a few track days in it then wanted...

    Sun visor clip broken

    Wish I had never sold my yellow CS. That was about 11 years ago. The world can’t be that small, though, can it? LHD with a roll cage.

    Sun visor clip broken

    Whoops! I was a bit trigger happy, then. Still, would probably have cost the difference in diesel on a trip to the dealer. Are you a Porsche 968 owner/ex? A

    Sun visor clip broken

    KrisKrk You are brilliant! The cover came away quite easily with a bit of leverage from a flat headed screwdriver, allowing the unit to be pulled out of the headlining. Many thanks for the eBay link for the replacement part. OEM on it’s way for £15.99, which is fair enough. Alan

    Sun visor clip broken

    Anyone know how to remove and replace the clip that holds the sun visor in place? Mine just snapped. Plastic fatigue, I suppose, even though it hardly had a hard life (unlike its owner). Cheers

    C6 Allroad lower door trim blades

    Thanks. The only ones on eBay at the moment are for a C5. Are they the same as my C6? Wheel finisher's not a bad idea. Do you think I could refinish them myself with some fine sandpaper and clear laquer?

    C6 Allroad lower door trim blades

    Has anyone found a cheaper alternative to OEM parts? All four of these aluminium trim bars on my car have dents or corrosion and I'd like to replace them without bankrupting myself at the dealers. From memory, the last one I replaced a few years ago cost over £250. Cheers

    Allroad air suspension compressor

    My air suspension seems to take ages to rise up and I am guessing that the compressor is failing. I see there are several companies offering compressor piston ring kits and I think I am probably competent enough to have a go. However, all the how-to videos seem to relate to the C5 not the C6 and...

    RHD to LHD headlights

    Does anyone know where I can get a pair of LHD headlights for my 2008 Allroad? I want to register it in France and I am told that the existing light units won't pass the Controle Technique (their MOT). I had thought that switching to Tourist Mode might be enough, but apparently not. My local...

    Chris, thanks, but that's a bit technical for me. VCDS?

    Allroad xenons - driving abroad

    Is there a way of changing the headlights to dip the other way for driving on the continent?
