    Eibach vs Vogtland

    Soooo I have been so unsure about lowering my car but I bit the bullet and bought the eibach pro kit. Fitted it myself and got the alignment done. The car didn’t look like it had lowered at all compared to the s line springs it was on but it was a firmer ride and definitely handled better so I...

    1.4 TFSI engine jerks

    Has anyone else who is unfortunate enough to own the 1.4 TFSI experienced any engine running issues? my car seems to deliver its power in an almost jerky motion until I get the revs above 3000. It’s almost like the power delivery is stepped rather than smooth and progressive. I have no engine...

    Ambient lighting fitted

    My car is just an A4 sport so didn’t come with much equipment. I got a bit bored so decided I’d do some ambient lighting work. I changed the white leds to blue then added the contour lighting strips and illuminated them with the same blue leds. Looks good I reckon. stereo improvements are next...

    Car's Gone so I might as well go too

    Last Tuesday was a sad sad day for me. I delivered my A4 to its new owner. Had a damn good blast on the way there though... Nearly 90 miles of country lanes so we parted on good terms. I hated walking away from that car and to make matters worse I now own a vectra. Anyway, I'm just saying...

    New car found....Don't be too harsh!

    With the imminent sale of my A4 looming I'be been on the lookout for a new car. I was supposed to be getting a company van but that would have ended up costng me a small fortune so I'm getting a cheaper car instead. I needed a good motorway car, plenty of equipment, economy and room. The...

    Anyone want my wheels?

    I'm putting my car back to standard as its getting sold so I'm hoping to get a set of standard S line wheels as a swap for my BBS CH reps (18"). One wheel has a little scuffing but other than that they are perfect. Rear tyres are brand new Marangoni's which come with free puncture repairs and re...

    Any Idea how much my car is worth?

    changing the standard sub?

    Does anyone know if its possible to fit an uprated sub into the rear shelf of the A4? Since getting the RNS-e in my car the bass isnt as it used to be and I'd like to get just a bit more kick and clarity from it. Has anybody done this or know if its possible?

    Cars got some new shoes

    The car has its new shoes fitted. I'm still not 100% convinced by them. I do like them but I also loved the LM's. Let me know what you think... Be as brutal as you like but I will cry! I realise the pictures are rubbish BTW. Just took them quick so people can get the idea.

    Anyone want lowering caps for free???

    Need to raise up the front of my car slightly as I'm struggling to take the car to most of the sites I work on now. I have the B5 lowering spring cups on it as well as Eiback 50mm springs and its too much. The caps will be free to whoever wants them as long as I can have your old ones and...

    Ordered new wheels but not sure now!

    I bit the bullet and ordered a new set of alloys. 8x18 BBS CH's in silver. I went for et32 offset so they will fill the arches ok but I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing now. I love the LM's I have but they are oxidising a bit and its putting me off. Which ones do you prefer? LM's...

    Recommend me a mobile?

    I currently have an Iphone 4 but want to free up some cash to pay for the band for my wedding so I'll be selling it. I need to buy a half decent handset second hand, probably on the bay, for around £100. What would people recommend? The last phone I had was a Nokia 6700 chrome which I loved...

    Whats different between the S line and the Sline SE?

    I've had a bit of a search and I cant figure out what the difference is between the S line and the S line SE. Did they come with more equipment as standard and how do you know if you have one or not?

I've found out that my car my not let me programme it to tell it that xenons are there and I may need a new control module to do so. Does anyone know how I...

    Armrest illumination.

    I bought an armrest off the bay and it has a little connector on the back that leads to a single LED inside it to illuminate it. Are they all like this? I've not seen anyone else who's retrofitted mention the lighting. Its a doddle, I can figure it out but just wondered if it was normal. The...

    Air con button.

    My air con button seems to have packed in. If I press it to turn econ off the light comes back on as soon as I release the button. Anyone have any idea why it might be doing it? Suppose a scan will probably be in order.
