Yeah I thought that, it's just that how I noticed it was the outside lens/casing had sucked in towards the bulb. Only on the little diamond shaped lights in the boot. On closer inspection the plastic divider between the reverse bulb and the rear red lights had melted and resolidified. I have run...

So looking at that I'd be along the lines of Fuel pump, Injectors, Wagner IC, Hybrid, Map sensor? I can tell that's already probably beyond any sensible budget and this won't be something that happens overnight but it's definitely something I want to do and will work towards. Ideally doing it...

Well we're talking here about being in around 300-320 with stock turbo. So bigger numbers than that. I was presuming you'd have the rough parts requirements and costs for the basic hp milestones of tuning. What can the manual box take? From the feel of it, it seems to have been designed in a...

Cheers, I'll look into getting one ready. Can't afford all my ideas yet but the plan is to replace the radiator with an alloy one, intercooler at the same time. Then install the new sensors bigger maf housing and hose, pipe in a catch can onto the pcv. Then call tuner to linearise the MAF and...

Hi Bobby, I really want to bombard you with questions but I know you get that all the time. Just this one, in your eyes, what is the most cost effective reliable way to bigger numbers? Having yourself done a lot of the trial and error

Yeah maybe so but still worth having a go, as far as I know all the sensor swaps are doable once you do the intercooler anyway but really come into play once your pushing bigger boost. Just decide how big is too big and what drawbacks can you live with. Interested in what way you go turbo wise...

Tried that seems high but didn't rip the threads out yet. Still the same, changed the rear diff oil, nasty colour but no big chunks or flakes. Feels better but noise still there. Removed and refitted front mount bush and no different. Has to be the rears. Sounds most like normal at 50-55nm at...

Check around the edges of your boot lid for drain holes. May have to push the rubber seals back to find them. Get a pack of wet wipes and clean every one you find..... At a guess. My boot keeps flooding too but it's a coupe and I think it's from when bagheads tried to lever it open.

Not had any gremlins like that so far. As far as I understand it the flap essentially thinks it's still there so opens and closes away just the physical air barrier part is gone.

I'm sure it was Bobby I stole the idea from with the airbox, if you open it up, under the filter there's a vacuum operated valve in the bottom of the airbox, just like inside the anti shudder valve but plastic. If you take the airbox base out, (careful with wires connected to underside and hose...

Watching this too. I want to see what I can get out of my CAPA manual but have had so many other issues so far. At roughly the same stage as you now. Stage 1 map. Dpf and cat gutted. Swirl flaps deleted. Airbox modded. Clutch,brakes,gearbox and diffs fluids changed. All new filters. I think the...

Finally got the job done, had several other more pressing problems pop up beforehand. Definitely a love hate car. Thanks for the help, wouldn't have worked that out by myself. Plastic part was cheap on eBay, broken in exactly the same way almost by design, a real pig to fit and line up but no...

So still basically rebuilding this A5, at this rate. I just swapped out the fuel filter (2013 date on it, and sold as freshly serviced in Feb) when I was at the back I noticed the boot lights looked like they had sagged in, in front of the reverse bulbs, it looks like inside some of the...

I fitted a gearbox mount aluminium insert first. (manual 6 speed, horrible box so far) and had a knock on startup, got new bolts for it from Audi greased it back up and refitted it and all was well. Slightly easier to get into second without looking like a learner driver. Then I fitted the...

Cheers for that, it does help to be able to see how it works first, nice one for the help, I'll have a go and see how I get on. Unplugged the glovebox too when digging for this clicking part and now have airbag light to add to the list, and the sun was in my eyes at the time so I pulled the...

Nice one mate, will have a go next weekend, I dont have facebook but will see if can use someone elses and have a look, cheers

Just joined with the same problem among the many others I'm finding along the way. Did you get that out in the end? Just tried today, all the glovebox and ducting was simple enough to get out, then can see the motor is easy to remove but unsure how to get the full thing out without breaking...
