I can definitely hear the fuel pump prime when I open the door. Thought I would go do a test to better explain and it started on the turn of the key. Took it for a quick drive with a few stop and starts, but all fine. When it had the issue last week though I did give it a 45 ish minute drive...

I know you were asking the original poster rather than me, but I do not get this light staying on. It’s odd, it’s like it doesn’t ‘catch’ properly when the starter motor is turning over. I thought it may be fuel not getting through quick enough having not been used but I tend to switch to stage...

I’m having the same on mine. 2.0 tfsi with auto box. No errors. Once started it is fine, and subsequent start ups are fine. It loops back to struggling after a couple of days so it’s more often than not during lockdown. When used daily pre lockdown it behaved fine and was happy to be left a week...

Thanks guys, appreciate the replies and opinions :-)

Hi all, I hope everyone has had a good Christmas, and a good New Year to come on my MoT last year my rear springs showed having some corrosion. They said they were fine for now but would likely need looking at again femoral the next one. The car is coming up to 15 years old so I’m suspecting...

Thanks rob. Really appreciate all the advice and help

My friend has confirmed the ones on his a1 are 225/35 R18 and they are 7.5j wide Do you think it’s more hassle than it’s worth?

Not sure what they are called but they are 9 spoke ones and 18”. They are oem. I’ll be honest the original bits I listed were based on wheel size website for my spec car (2.0 tfsi s-line quattro). It seemed to be the only 18” alloy listed and matched the sizes. So I could well be wrong there...

Thanks rob, much appreciated. I will do a bit more reading as that seems to suggest the outer rim may poke out too far

Thanks rob, that sounds promising. Really appreciate the detailed replies Does anyone have any recommendations for the adapters to change from 5x112 to 5x100? Brand/model wise, or are they much the same? Anything else I should be wary of or worry about?

as per the title, will they fit easily? Currently have s-line alloys on a 05 tfsi s-line quattro - 225/40 18” with bore of 57.1. 7.5jx18 et35. Hub is 5x112. My friend has a 2014 a1 and is treating himself to some S1 alloys. His has new tyres on and basically said I can have the alloys with...

Thank you - will check that out

I went and enjoyed it. Mate took me in his 67 plate Rs4 - think it may have been the only new one there (bar one that one of the London dealers bought with them) It didn’t have as much on as a full on paid event (japfest, etc), but had a nice atmosphere and some gorgeous cars. the drive back...

Was it an easy job? I need to do the same at some point soon...

Hi, I had mine remapped by revo recently. Mine is a late 2012 b8.5 which was running the tdi-e map (detuned 177 down to 163bhp). When I took the car in they read the engine code from your default map and it will either match one they have or they can send the map they read from your car to hq...

If your in Pompey, then JKM Performance are well regarded for REVO and Bluefin remaps. http://www.jkm.org.uk/ Not used them myself, but when I was researching into a remap a while back they gave some useful advice (albeit I was asking about a 2 litre TDi instead of TFSI). They seem to rate the...

Thanks guys. Input really appreciated. Presumably it’s not done that much - I had assumed loads of people would have done it as it was fairly common place with the mk4 golf on the forums. Ah well, was just a thought

That’s amazing, thank you! Does anyone who has done this have pictures of their cars?

Should anyone else be in a similar boat, it’s worth talking to your local mapping company. In the new year I’m hoping to pop and see my local Revo supplier, get my ecu read and see if mine will take a suitable map. I don’t know a huge amount about remaps, but I believe a revo map is a fully...

hi, Does anyone know what other manufacturers alloy wheels will fit onto an Audi A4 b8 (specifically the facelift model) Mine is an SE Technik model running 17”alloys and I am considering going up a size as they look a little lost. While I like the look of 19s I’d like to retain the ride...
