    Hi, have a bit of trouble with the drivers door lock on the a4, wasn't locking so ended up getting a new one off Ebay, turned out to be the wrong one. So a replacement arrived and have just fitted it. Locked the door catch with screwdriver push, and all opens fine, but when the door shuts the...

    Tdi snub mount

    Further to my previous post, 1.9tdi, snub mount needs replacement, so do I go with the power flex poly version, or is it harsh on idle? Or the standard version? Or does the harder rubber 2.5 tdi version fit, it's the D shaped bush.

    Interior mirror adaptor

    Basically I've got hold of a dipping mirror , 2 in fact, as my car is not fitted with it, or rain sensor the boss on the screen is smaller. I'm not worried about the rain sensor on glass, so is there an adaptor to fit the larger mirror to smaller fitting, wiring is no problem, got that all...

    Macan wheels

    Anybody fitted them? Thinking of the 18s to go on instead of my rotors, but undecided, may be too subtle?

    1.9tdi snub mount

    When did the service on the avant I noticed the front mount was looking like that oasis stuff that florists use. Seen that there are 2 shapes, and also poly ones. So my questioning begins, any idea which shape a 2007 1.9tdi will require, obviously I can take it apart, but if its only one...

    What's a pulsating damper?

    As above really, was looking at some info from parts and saw item 30 on 1.9/2.0tdi intercooler systems, wondering what it does as later cars dont appear to list it, and if there are any problems with them, I occasionally get a hiccup if been moving slowly then accelerate, others have noted...

    Heated seats

    Hi, changed my seats the other day, now have black S-line leather with electric lumbar and heated fronts. Previous seats had lumbar but not heating. So... I know the dash heater unit is different as it doesn't have seat switches, and the seats have 2 wires for the elements, Is it possible to...

(Already gone) Quick search listed pads...

    TDI hiccup

    Has anyone any idea about something that happens very occasionally with my TDI,1.9 BKE engine. Completely random, and occasionally I'll get a hiccup when accelerate, just one, that's all. I have also had when accelerating only in first, usually pulling out of local supermarket actually, a couple...

    Flip key fob

    Hi, really sorry to ask a question that can't seem to get a straight answer for. Right, had my A4b7 1.9 tdi avant for about 18 months, all pretty much trouble free motoring, and 200k miles now. It came with one key only, so I'm thinking of getting a second hand key, getting a new blade cut to...

    Parts swapping

    A4b7 with Passat calipers

    Hi, new member, got an avant with 288 mm discs, was looking to upgrade as not brilliant, question is can I use the mk5 golf, 2007 Passat 312 calipers and a4 discs as easier to find, thinking is the Porsche 6 pot conversion uses same parts/discs on both a4 and golf. Or will mk2 TT calipers fit...
