I think this makes perfect sense, thanks a lot, i think i'll go with that then, order a couple and fit them myself asap just for peace of mind, i can always take it back to them if it doesn't work! I don't suppose you know how to find the part number? Googling "Cam sensor Audi A4 3.2" just...

Thanks alot guys, just for for clarity Mario, those diagnostics codes were from the AA who towed me to the mechanics in question, not the data of the actual mechanics, that said, you're right in that they've basically said "It's the chain because we've seen it before and our diagnostics are...

Thanks, i've just phoned them again and spoke about perhaps changing the sensors and going from there, however they recommended heavily against it "as they have a lot of experience with these engines" and something about seeing correlation between something camshaft improbable (Sorry i'm...

I'm almost certainly over simplifying it, here's the full recovery report in the quote above (It's a bit of a mess with the formatting), but presumably the garage has used their oscilloscope and such to identify the problem? Presumably they aren't guessing? I don't have anything to quote from...

I put in my own little bluetooth tool and that came back with camshaft sensor errors and misfires across the cylinders, i then had the AA come out who spent perhaps an hour taking out all of the coils and plugs, cleaning them and putting them back in (they had oil on them from faulty rocker...

Sorry, quickly wanted to add that the car only has 49,000 miles so this has happened way earlier than i thought it should... Is that indicative of anything at all?

Hi Mario, thanks for the response, it's a fairly reputable garage (Lindleys Autocentres) and they apparently will only use Audi OEM parts, but in this instance they went looking for aftermarket to help me with the price. They told me on the phone that the parts required from audi themselves cost...

Hi guys, I know this topic has been discussed to death but looking for some best recommendations with how to handle the dreaded timing issue. I've got a 3.2 2005 A4 which suddenly began misfiring, skip forward 3 days and the garage have told me that my timing belt/chain (Sorry, not particularly...

This post is from 2004 buddy, i doubt many of the people on this thread even own Audis anymore.

Sorry yeah, i completely blanked on that link apparently. didn't see it! Those boxes are the way I've seen most people go. Connect 2 and Denison

I've no idea about the concert stereo sorry! Here's a picture of the socket the wire i mentioned above is supposed to go in. Certainly doesn't appear like it'd fit anywhere in that socket you photographed! http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af176/plokm21/aux diy/back.jpg You'll likely need to...

I used this i believe! very easy to get to everything, like i said, just awkward to get it back in on your own as you've gotta hold it just right and bolt at the same time!

I paid the same on a 1.2 Clio aha!

With Telematics to boot haha! Oh insurance companies, how we love you :')

Oh my word, that brings back bad memories... Getting the RNS-E out was the bane of 3 days of my life haha. For many, if not most it works first time, but the inner clips are like fine bone china. I bought 2 sets of keys from 2 different suppliers, visited two Audi specialists in the hope i was...

Yes I do! No issue as far as I remember! You could always pull out the radio and double check the 'plug socket' for the aux adapter is free before you bought it if you're concerned. There's no problem re. Software or anything, at least there wasn't for me!

I've found it massively depends on where you like and type of job, i happen to have the perfect storm of living right in the middle of the city (dropped by > half if i quoted outside of it) and being self-employed aha.

It's unbelievable! Thankfully i've been driving since pretty much the first day i could so it's gradually coming down. I imagine it'd be positively CHEAP if i were to lump it with something more "economical". But where's the fun in that!

I'd love to have said mid 40's for a laugh, but yeah, i'm 22 haha. They quoted me £4000 before i moved.. and that's with a few years no claims! Unreal.

Well, my current insurance is £2000 on a stock 3.2 A4 if it's any consolation! :astonished:
