Hi Everyone, I have a product enquiry please. I may need to invest in a front anti-roll bar for my 2006 A4 2.0 TDI S Line (B7) (saloon). I've been looking at aftermarket anti-roll bar products but I'm sure the RS4 version would be just fine. Is the RS4 (B7) version compatible so long as a I...

Hi Matt, There was never any management lights or fault codes generated with the issue. I initially took the car in for an hours diagnosis with the focus being on the turbo hoses but the guys on the VCDS laptop isolated the fault and demonstrated the issue with live data voltage monitoring. It...

Hi Matt, Yes, the long standing judder issue is no more. The tubo actuator was replaced and configured using VCDS. While the turbo vanes were exposed they were given a good clean. The car now boosts again and drives like it used to. I also had the tandem pump, gasket and fuel filter replaced...

Hi Everyone, Today my car has had a new tandem pump, gasket and fuel filter, plus a new turbo actuator installed and configured as well as the turbo vanes cleaned. The benefit of this work has finally resolved a long standing judder issue (and failure to boost) and cured a problem with...

Hi northpole, A quick update for you and all other members. On Sunday I discovered www.turbocentras.com and on Monday morning after a brief email exchange with their support person I purchased an actuator. I selected next day delivery and it arrived yesterday morning. I took it to my garage...

Hi northpole, Thanks for the link. I have had a look and the actuator is not listed as a part, seperate from the turbo. Onwards and upwards. Kind Regards, Dave

Hi northpole, Thanks for this. What I have been able to identify is the turbo part number as 03G145702H. The actuator is the square topped one with the electric and vacuum connectors. I am in touch with a Borg Warner distributor and they will provide one if I confirm the part number as they do...

Hi Everyone, Today has been a good day as I have finally isolated the fault that is causing my car to judder. The reason for the judder is due to the turbo actuator voltage being stuck on VCDS live data monitoring. The actuator is moving under vacuum but the sensor isn't seeing this action so...

Hi Everyone, I finally got round to collecting the boot lid on Sunday and I had it fitted this morning. Everything about the replacement went to plan with no hitches. That's another issue crossed off. Thanks. Kind Regards, Dave

Hi Rob, The car has been remapped for around 3.5 years and the judder is a recent symptom that could be a boost leak or a problem with the turbo/actuator which occurs at high revs. I'm trying to get the turbo hoses smoke tested and while in discussion yesterday it was brought up that it may be...

Hi Everyone, I was trouble shooting the judder issue I am experencing with the car today and the conversation I was involved with turned to the feasibility of un-doing the remap and reverting the car back to the stock configuration. I am not in possession of the stock map. Are there people on...

Hi Everyone, To cut a long story short, I visited Neil Grayson on Ulverston Rd, Sheffield, yesterday and one of his team quickly identified the fault which was due to a broken wire in the drivers side door loom as it as it goes from the door to the main body of the car within the protective...

Hi Everyone, I was able to attend to the fault in a little bit more detail this afternoon and in summary the symptoms could be described as follows: Drivers side door and all electronic controls = dead All (4) door electric windows = dead Remote fob central locking only 3 doors and the boot...

Hi Charlie, Thanks for the feedback and advice. To further complicate matters, I'm noticing the central locking is slowly dying on me today. I had to use te key to unlock the car this morning and when I parked up in town, the central locking worked remotely. However, when I returned to the car...

Hi Everyone, I'm dealing with a couple of issues with my car at present; one of them self inflicted and the other is one I can just about live with as it is not entirely debilitating and I beleieve I understand the general area where the problem is located. However, to add to the mix...

Hi Everyone, Thanks for all of your feedback. I have secured the boot lid and it is in the process of being removed and prepared for my collection. Included with the item will be the lights, lock, Audi branded decals and interior boot lining. Thanks again. Kind Regards, Dave

Hi Everyone, I had an unexpected interaction with a tree while I was parking my car last Sunday. As a result I require a replacement boot lid. I beleieve I have sourced one but my inexperience with understanding the finer points of Audi product knowledge and part numbers is causing me...

Hi Everyone, I am finally able to advise that the knocking sound was eliminated by replacing both of the drive shafts with new units. The dinking sound has now developed into two dinks which have been identified as worn front o/s suspension arms that require replacing; I am planning to do this...

Front brake pads (near and off side) replaced while I waited yesterday, afterwards, no dink on the brake pedal and no further loose part noise that can eliminated dampened/eliminated when pressing on the pedal. I went out today and the problem returned. I have let my mechanic know but he can't...

Good Morning, Well, I visited my mechanic last Friday and the car was taken up on the lift for a visual inspection of the wheels, drive shafts and gearbox etc and was given the all clear but to keep monitoring. I didn't feel completely assurred or comfortable about this but I agreed to go along...
