So once again the car doesn't want to work for me. I was moving the car on a car park earlier, pulled out the space and it jerked forward and then slowed as though a boost pipe popped off. Not the case, got vagcom up on it and i'm getting 01350 Alarm via Theft Warning System: Rear 006- short to...

So after the full engine replacement, the car ran and drove but always had a slight miss fire under medium acceleration, if you were careful with the throttle it would be fine. Then then car had no power at all and started slowing down then came alive again, drove another few miles and then it...

Hi all, recently got my car back on the road after an engine replacement. Now it is juddering and feels like a miss fire. I've got the egr blanked off but not had it mapped out yet. Today though I had no power and had to pull off the motorway and turned it off and then it wouldn't restart...

Been toying with the idea of picking up something fast and fun for a few weeks before hopefully buying another b7 3.0 tdi avant. Not got a massive budget, 3-4k ideally something loud that makes a god noise! So far i've looked at; Ibiza 1.8 20vt Leon 1.8 20vt TT 1.8 20vt and 3.2 S3 1.8 20vt...

Hi all, got a 2.0 tdi avant. The clutch slave cylinder was being replaced as I broke the original and when I pulled it out the piston popped off and fell into the gearbox. If I'm thinking right it's fell behind the flywheel, is there any way of getting it out with removing the box or does it...

Hi all, I'm currently fitting an new engine into my a4 as the other went pop. I have to swap over the injectors to match, so far I have them old ones out and dropped the 170 ones in. Do you have to push them in before tightening them up? Plus I never adjusted the rocker arm on top when removing...

Hi guys, I'm currently thinking of swapping my A4 avant 2.0 tdi 170 and upgrading to a 3.0 tdi avant. I'm not sure on which would be best to go for, the manuals are quite hard to get hold of and i prefer them but i do like the idea of finding an auto with the flappy paddles (not sure if all...

So, my 170 blew up, i've managed to source another engine but only a 140. I'm going to be swapping the ecu, wiring, injectors, turbo, manifold and intercoolers. Is there anything else that needs to be swapped such as cams, intake mani, throttle body or are they the same in both. I'm going to...

I've noticed that a few of the 2.0 tdi engines seem to be 1986cc whilst others are 1968cc. Anyone know why this is or what the difference is apart from the obvious. Both the 170 and 140 seem to be 1986cc.

My 170Tdi decided to shatter a piston ring and kill cylinder 4 on new years eve. So now i'm stuck with an a4 that doesn't work, i want to get it back on the road asap but i'm struggling to find a replacement engine that won't cost me an arm and a leg. What other cars came with the 170 tdi and...

I've done a lot of research to see if I can nail down the differences between the two engines. Apart from the obvious power differences what is different between them? Are the internals the same? So far: Turbo Injectors Map Intercooler I know these are different. Basically my 170 has...

Hey people, as stated above, I have a serious miss fire on the car but have no lights up on the dash. Took a look with Vag com on the engine side and no faults showing. I had done less than 5 miles after filling it up when it started, had the RAC out as i had to get it recovered as it was pretty...

Right i've read up loads about the oil pump problems the 2.0Tdi's have. I have a 56 plate 2.0 S-line 170 avant. When i leave work i get a low oil pressure warning light. Switch the car off and on again and it goes of then comes back on, do the same again and it goes off completely. Not sure why...

Has anyone ever dropped a V8 Tdi from an A8 into a saloon or estate? Would it even fit? I had a search and there was only one post in the B6 section. Would be nice to drop one in once the 2.0 goes pop, if it ever does! Hook it to a manual box and it would be a bit of a beast!

I'm after picking up a set of 3SDM 0.01's sometime in the future, now do i got for 18's or 19's for my avant? I've seen one with 19's on and they look great but i've heard they can effect the handling of the car? 18's would be cheaper to buy and tyres would be cheaper too. Has anyone got a pic...

It seems to me now that i've started a collection of cars! Each one in various stages of progress. So I have a Seat Ibiza 1.9Tdi which i used daily and now need to sell. MK5 Fiesta Zetec s as a track car thats currently in the rebuild stages. An Mk1 TT which i'm breaking and recently added to...

Hi all, recently bought an A4 avant 2.0Tdi 170 s-line 2006. Just got a few teething problems which i missed on the test drive. Firstly the brake pedal is constantly hard when running/driving, the car does brake and stops quite well (abs has to kick in) but it could be a little better. Ive read...

Hey guys and girls! Its that question everybody asks, who's got a good deal on their insurance? Basically I'm hopefully picking up my A4 Avant 2.0Tdi 170 tonight. I'm currently insured with brentacre and paying monthly it comes to a total of £574 but they want an extra £354 for the audi! I...

I know this has been covered a huge amount! But i've read so much i'm now confused! I'm looking at buying a 56 plate a4 avant 170 tonight if the car checks out decent. Would it be gear or chain driven oil pump? Or is the only way to tell by getting the engine code? Also what would need to be...
