    A7 Towbar & Towing?

    Hi all, just wondering if any members have any experience with an A7 as a towing vehicle? Now, I haven't designed it this way but the OH has decided we need a caravan to holiday in during these covid times, which I'm OK with but wanted to know if anyone had caravan towing experience with an A7...

    Stage 1 remap providers

    THQuattro, so it appears his stated figures are there abouts regards achievable gains which gives me some comfort knowing he isn't talking 'pie in the sky' figures. Sussex is too far away from me also but thanks anyway. Gaz

    Stage 1 remap providers

    Thanks for the responses guys. I've found a local tuner who is stating he can carry out a ECU remap via OBD to give increases as follows: STD power 268bhp to 325bhp (+53). STD torque 580Nm to 680Nm (+100). From what I've established via research etc, these figures are about right for what can...

    Stage 1 remap providers

    Yes I am aware of Bobby's skills and knowledge in this area and he would be an ideal choice but as you say, he is some distance away from me which is an issue. I definitely would prefer a custom map so this probably narrows my options even further with regards to competent providers of this...

    Stage 1 remap providers

    I honestly don't know? Again I'd have to be led by others and experiences and opinions on what's best. I want a remap to basically achieve power gains and improve the driveability of the car with regards to getting rid of flat spots and throttle response delay etc. Gaz

    Stage 1 remap providers

    Hi folks, I'm looking for any recommendations of providers to get my A7 3.0tdi 272ps remapped now it is out of warranty but I'd rather not have to travel too far to get it done. Any info as to where I could get this done as local to me as possible would be appreciated. I'm in rural Hereford...

    The A7 Tyres Thread

    Yep, sounds about right from my own investigations so the moral of the story is simple.......don't buy Dunlop's! I'm most definitely going to get mine changed as soon as I can (or when my wallet allows!).

    The A7 Tyres Thread

    I don’t think such a tyre exists. They all cost £240+ A7 3.0tdi 272 Black Edition Mythos Black Tech pack Yep again you're right, I can't find anything cheaper so I'll have to just cough up lol.

    The A7 Tyres Thread

    You're quite right Bishop187, I've checked and they don't! Anyone got any recommendations for 21's that don't cost the earth yet are going to offer acceptable performance? Gaz

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Hehe cheers Chez for the info. I'm not gonna blame the Dodo Juice just yet but I can't 100% clear it of any blame of course. I'm just baffled that such little cleaning with it and a leather brush has taken the dye out. I cleaned it for literally seconds then wiped off with a damp MF cloth and...

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    WTF indeed.......that was my reaction when I saw it lol! Like I say, I very much suspect previous 'repairs' have simply been taken off by me cleaning the seat. I just hope that the dye I've purchased is a good to perfect match otherwise I'm gonna cry !

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Just a brief update on my recent leather cleaning exploits. Bit of a bitter sweet experience with the Dodo Juice supernatural leather cleaner really. I proceeded to use the cleaner with purchased cleaning brush and MF cloths on Sunday. The stains disappeared a treat but I was also left with...

    The A7 Tyres Thread

    Same problem with rear tyres cutting for me too! Just had MOT and advisory for both rears showing this. Not sure if it's a problem for Dunlop Sport Maxx or the A7 Quattro or both? I'm running 275/30/21's on my B/E but now loathed to replace with Dunlop's. They ain't cheap and don't last from my...

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Well, I got back off the family hols today and having been driving a Ford Tourneo 9 seat minibus all week (yep too many kids etc) it was bliss to see the A7 sat on the drive waiting for me. Anyway, the Dodo Juice leather cleaner ordered yesterday was delivered about half an hour after getting...

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Thanks jassyo06, I think I'll order some Colourlock strong leather cleaner as well as the DJ already ordered. Thanks for the recommendation .

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Thanks for the responses guys, much appreciated and it is always best to ask those that have tried and tested products. I have ordered some DJ as recommended by Adam14 but if that doesn't lift the ingrained dirt then I'll try something else. What I really want to avoid of course is taking the...

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Thank you for your reply Adam. It sounds like you rate this so I'll give it a go. My leather is suffering from dye transfer amongst other contaminants and it doesn't help that the leather colour is very light. I'll give it a go and report back on the outcome. Thanks again, Gaz.

    Leather cleaning and conditioning?

    Firstly, sorry if this topic has been covered previously but I can't find anything on the subject in previous threads so I'm gonna ask? I've noticed my Lunar Silver leather in my A7 is looking decidedly grotty, especially on the driver's seat and I have tried several 'products' to try and bring...
