I've just had one of those weeks I over and want to forget.
I don't want to sound like a country and western song telling you all about it but I hope you can help make one thing better.
I lost my wheel nut key after changing my spare wheel.
Can someone help me find out which one it could be, by...
A couple of years ago my car's radio reception took a nose dive. In general the reception is OK and picking up local stations and sounding clear but the list of available stations has dropped. When scanning for these further away stations they aren't found and occasionally it wont find more...
The mechanic did say its at the back of the engine so labour takes longer. If it was in an easy place I'd suggest to clean it first I think, but its going to be 200-250 for the replacement. I could be paying around £250 for something that may not work and have to pay the £750 anyway :(...
The car is a 2011 A3 2.0 TDI Sportsback and done about 100k miles.
The glow plug light started flashing on the dash and the car went to limp mode
I took it to a garage who said the error code is EGR error and been quoted £750 for the genuine part and replacement.
I do trust this garage, but is...
What you said makes sence. I was getting very frustrated as the image of the glass looked correct but when searching compatibility it said it wasn't compatible.
The glass has come off once before, I glued it on but didn't hold and the mirror fell off weeks later. If I can get the remains of...
Im on eBay looking for a replacement wing mirror, but I cant seem to find out if it is compatible with our car. All the checks list Audi A3 8P1 and 8PA however according to the car's actual chassis number it is 8P8.
Is there an 8P8?
The side mirror glass fell off my wife's A3 sports back.
Where is the best place to get a replacement.? I looked on eBay but they seem to be just generic replacements.
It's also heated of that makes a difference.
Original work was done from a known VAG garage which I thought would be best to use even though it was 30+ miles away. This added quite an addition to my costs getting it towed there after if first snapped. I wasn't happy about the £30 charge for a brand of belt I can get from my local...
The garage is probably more like 10 miles, plus I drove a mile or so back after it snapped. Also when I got the car a service report said the battery is only 60% good, so I think I am pushing it too much.
All this started when I got my cambelt changed about 2 years ago. I was told the tensioner...
Hi, Is the electronic handbrake / e-brake fail safe?
Ie. is the default of the brakes actually and the electronics hold the brake off?
My fanbelt has snapped AGAIN. The garage is a few miles away, although the steering is tough Im more worried about the battery. As it wont be charging I...
I am due to change my front tyres. Originally I had Michelin Pilot on and wasn't impressed. I then went to Dunlop SP Sport 1 and they where OK, but neither of them have lasted very long at all.
I was looking at getting something like Bridgstone Turanza T005, which is more of a touring tyre...
I don't think the issue is perishing the rubber. I believe the tyre fitters issue was its not easy to remove to sealant from the typre and due to the residue of the sealant the puncture repair is less likely to stick.
Having said that, I found the Holts tyre sealant website and they use a...
Sorry I forgot to mention I have the full version of Carly and the accompanying Bluetooth dongle. That has shown no errors at all to do with the radio.
Thanks everyone
There was someone selling the whole set of tool kit, battery cover and wheel for £130 so I got it. It worked out cheaper then buying each part separately.
Years ago I was told the spray puncture kits could be washed out and your tyre repaired. I understand that's not the...
