    Cloned Plate? Community Speed Watch

    Hi all, So I recently got a custom plate (put it on my car 10th August) brand new from a new DVLA registration (not pre-owned), and was caught speeding 53 in a 30 in a completely difference county (over 150 miles away) to where I live! The letter states the car model/colour which matches. Has...

    Redex - What's your thoughts?

    Hey all, What's your thoughts on Redex, specifically for a 2.0 TDi engine? I'm thinking of using it along with the carbon cleaner as my car's been running the DPF cycle quite frequently recently as I've not had the chance to take it on a long drive and the roads are all 30mph round here currently.

    Procedure when stopped at lights/in traffic

    I was just curious as to what all of your procedures was whilst at the lights if you're running an S-Tronic Gearbox with no Electronic Break Assist (I think that's what it's called, the thing which applied the breaks when stationary)? Do you sit with your foot on the break and the gearbox in...

    Third Brake Light Change

    Hello! Was just wondering if anyone's had any experience with changing the third brake light on the Audi A3 2013 8V? One of my LEDs is dead, and I've got a replacement from Audi directly, but all the videos seem to show the light being behind the boot interior trim, whereas mine is in the...

    Silver interior trim issues

    Hello, Has anyone had issues with the silver interior trim? It's down to wear and tear but my e-brake switch is peeling off and it's very sharp - was wondering if I could just replace the switch rather than the whole console, and the silver door trim on the drivers side is peppered with dots...

    Audi Price Match Servicing

    Hello! Has anyone had much luck with Audi Price Match? My local Audi dealer have stated they match, but all the independents around me (based in Cambridge) actually quote more than the main dealer themselves! For example, Audi will charge me £645 for a Cambelt and Water Pump change (inc Labour...

    Diamond Cut Alloy Misery

    Hello helpful folk, Last night I ran into an issue with one of my alloys, the issue being a jutting out kerb on a downward spiral and a not enough wiggle room (or concentration) by myself, which led to the attached images. :slapped: The scrapes aren't particulary deep, they've seemingly just...

    M25 Variable Speed Limits

    Hey all, New driver here - was driving around the M25 yesterday from the A1 junction to just after the M4. Variable speed limits were in effect, and I think I went through a 40 at 46 on my speedometer. Does anyone know how likely this will be to flag? I heard something about a 10%+2 rule ...

    2.0 TDI Belt/Chain

    Hey, So my Audi A3 2.0 TDi just tipped over 80,000 miles - I got in touch with my Audi garage and they suggest I get the timing belt replaced because of this. (They said 80k/5 years) The myAudi site says that my car doesn't have a belt, but a chain which they advise replacing at 140,000 and in...

    SatNav MMI SD Card

    Hey all, Recently acquired an A3 2013 - it has SatNav enabled, however it was sold to me without the SD Card, so when I choose SatNav, it says "Please enter media device". Am I okay to just purchase an SD card from eBay with the maps? I called Audi and they said it would be £195 for a new SD...
