Yes - That worked for me.

4.7 litres suggested by others and is what I poured in - I cycled through the gears as described before driving. Definately fit the filter and cover before strating the engine! Stuart

18-19mm ID hose is ideal for top fill method - just did it today and worked a treat with battery staying in place.

I used a thin slitting disc in a 4.5" angle grinder for cuts and then heat gun / soldering iron to close the area in 3rd picture using a discarded offcut and plastic welding. HTH Stuart

If you also have a shaking car issue are the wheel bearings good? If there is play then you can get pad knock-off which lengthens the brake pedal.

“Timing belt / drive belt and water pump” will be cam belt & the water pump which is driven off the cam belt. The preventative maint sticky thread suggests 70k intervals for cam belt but there is also usually a age recommendation. There is also a cam chain at the other end of the engine that...

The only addition to the original list I can see would be cooler spark plugs

I'd agree on 2+ & the fuel pump - its what I went for! But when you look at full costs vs gains across 1/2/2+ it looked most attractive.

I'd agree with above - fit the indiction and exhaust now it will be ok as is but save up and then go Stage2+ in one hit and thoroughly recommend R-Tech. I would suggest get R-Tech to fit the RS4 PRV and HPFP kit when they have the car in to do the map. They are both in the same area and the PRV...

I have a Turbo back resonated Miltek on 8P S3 - its slightly louder than std but not intrusive at all on motorways and doesn't turn heads as being anti-social. If you've already bough a catback Miltek and fitted it then you have chosen resonated or non-res - swapping the downpipe and cat only...

NGK BKR7EIX are a very popular choice, I am running 8's which run a little cooler with no issue even in the depths of winter - suggest you go with the advice of your engine builder / mapper.

Sounds like a good number to have a recorded baseline / keep an eye on if you have capability to check it. Just fired up VCDS and block 93 showed -2 degrees on my engine (53k miles & no audible chain rattle).

Front Anti Lift Kit and Rr ARB is a good upgrade even if you change nothing else and both are easy to fit. I fitted the 24mm Whiteline ARB 7 use on the hardest setting - those 2 mods together make the car significantly more positive on turn-in and balanced. Std rear ARB is around 22mm IIRC and...

Thanks for the suggestions, upper amp is 8p4 035 225 B which I think is different to non-B. Today I removed RNS-E checked coax continuity (all good) - put it all back in and all stations are working again! I'll see how long it stays like that and if it throws any new codes on VCDS.

Yes factory style fabric tape on the grey connector - same as others. Thx

Thanks Craig - the previous owner had played with the car a bit so quite possible he had an AV input & I'm putting a reverse camera on didn't see the point of recoding for a couple of weeks. Yes I still believe it is factory fit RNSE, phone integration etc and given radio reception was fine for...

pretty fast running out of ideas after some more checking - Any other ideas invited... - swapped upper amp for another - no change - checked both aerial continuity on rear glass - both ok - checked continuity from aerial joints on glass to plugs into both amps & also continuity of the 3 wires...

Nope - other way round as the new tyres are smaller rolling circumference - at any indicated speed you are going 7.8% slower on the new tyres then you were on the old tyres but that doesn't fit with your comment of 30mph flash-up signs.

I have found an Accumate to be very good to keep a car battery charged & conditioned for extended periods - once it has hit target voltage it goes into maintenance mode monitoring battery voltage until voltage drops below a threshold whereupon it switched back into trickle charge etc - IE no...

If its full turbo back exhaust Milltek then whats the problem? If it is cat-back then agree its a big compromise if you are planning on mapping. Figure out exactly what you have first.
