Hi everyone, I haven't posted for a while but am hoping one of your lot might be able to help. When engaging either 1st gear or reverse and at very low speeds (pulling away slowly or pushing back) I hear a loose coupling sound – think of two railway garages linked together and as they begin...

Hiya, Oh right, so in the FSDs would keep the car higher then? AMD didn't just make that up?

Nice example. Is this phantom (flat) black? And have you had a paint colour correction treatment on it or a wet sand? It looks so good. I've got the same paint and when It's been washed it's full of small marks and scuffs, visible in the flat black.

Yeh it's weird isn't it. AMD said it was the koni's keeping it up which, as you say, just doesn't seem right. I'm thinking i'll get the Koni FSD's switched out for very standard Bilstein B4 gas dampers. To be totally honest, I haven't measured the drop for about 9/10 days so it's possible it's...

All very sage tips. Thanks man. And remind me (I'm sure it's mentioned somewhere on this thread) - What shocks/dampers do you have?

Hmm, at this point I'm afraid it's over my head. Perhaps ask Sayam - he's the expert. He actually started this thread some time ago. :)

Ah, I think we have been talking about different things? I have just had the Eibach Pro Kit springs fitted. Not coils. What do you have?

As I suspected, because it's not OEM suspension Audi have refused to diagnose the slight steering clunk and have turned me away! Buggers.. Especially as it had the Koni FSD's fitted before I bought the car! Thankfully they haven't charged me for the inspection and have given the car a clean...

Oh really? The Pro Kit springs are progressive so I'd double check you have the correct ones before installing.

Hmm.. I might do if it continues. The car is actually in at Victoria Audi at the moment, I mentioned on here a few weeks back that I was hearing a clucking noise when turning the wheel at slower speeds, initial feedback from the garage is that they suspect top mounts are in need of replacement -...

2 Weeks in and seemingly no drop from normal S-Line setup. Excuse the filth, it's having a bath this weekend.

Thanks man. Although I had the Hunter alignment at the time of installation. Would you still advise another after 2 or 3 weeks in?

What shocks are you running?

Hi Sayam, So as you know, I've had these Eibach pro's fitted and the ride is way better but as mentioned, they're making a noise when driving over speed bumps. It's not a terrible but audible enough to enter the cabin. Also, they will have been on the car a week tomorrow and the ride height...

I haven't taken it on any fast, country roads yet. I was driving around with my GF in the car this weekend and when she's in it's all very civilised. 10 and 2. I'll be really interested to hear what you think of them once installed. I live in SE London, there are potholes and speed bumps...

Cheers mate! I might ask Nigel about that when he fits cruise control for me next month! :) I've got the standard Audi Concert head unit - Toying with the idea of an 8-inch Pioneer unit as I really like having a screen but also DAB and Bluetooth. They're pricey though so will be on the look...

OH REEEEALLY? Send us a link pal... What do I search for?! Also, whilst I've got you - what headunit have you got?

I've got the 8p3, It's an 09 plate and I believe they changed the dash slightly, removing the cup holder. I just have a coin draw where that used to be. Refurbing your wheels is always such a joy, a bit like getting new shoes! Powder coating is the way to go, gives it such a great finish. As...

Nice! I'm actually thinking about up-grading the speakers as i'm fairly sure my tweeters and the small speaker on mounted in the middle of the dash have blown - apparently it's a very common problem with VAG cars of this vintage. I was thinking about also swapping the head-unit to one that had...

I have the armrest and whilst it's useful at times it's terribly designed as it covers the useless cupholder and the handbrake meaning that you're constantly having to lift it up and down. And then there's the cupholder it's self... Why oh why is there only one tiny one? It's a real ball ache on...
