So my battery is on the way out and I've had to get jump starts of mates to get around for the last few days before I can replace the battery at the weekend! However after we jump started the car today on my way home I noticed the fuel gauge was reading zero - but I know for certain I have over...

Anyone got a recommendation for non-OEM battery replacements for a 2003 1.8T BFB? Ideally want something form, fit and function. Thanks!

Hi Guys, Posting this I have realised that its been well over a year since I last logged in - which means its been well over a year since my Audi gave me any grief! So that is something to celebrate! Any-hoo. About a week ago, whilst pottering along, my engine warning light came on. I've...

Hi Folks, There is a lot of information out there about fitting cruise to B6's, and I'm fairly confident of completing the modification this weekend. I just have one question which I cannot find a definite answer to: What version/part number of the steering-wheel control module is required for...

Hi guys, My A4 has been smelling a bit petrolly in the morning recently, and I took it out today with the roof down and almost gagged on the fumes. Checked under the car and there was a definite slow fuel leak on the drivers side, in line with the door pillar, not dripping, but the panels...

Hi, So I got in a bit of an accident today, personally I don't think it was my fault... but unfortunately I don't think the insurance company are going to agree. I was going round a sharp bend on an unfamiliar road and a car came in the opposite direction with its full-beams on, completely...

So today has been a day of strange happenings. As you may have read, my headlight bulb had repeatedly blown so I decided to have one last punt with VAG-COM and see if I could find the cause. To my utter surprise it worked and duly pumped out a whole heap of codes, too many to comprehend and...

Hi guys, The drivers side dipped beam headlight on my Cab keeps failing, this is the third bulb in as many months. It one of the projector style dipped beams so it's a separate bulb to the full-beams, they're nothing special, just normal halogens. It's very annoying because the bulb is an...

Uh oh! I was running a little errand down to town and on the way back, only about half a mile from my house, I turned on to our road which is steep uphill, gave the throttle a mash and... nothing. Then the engine management light started flashing (the one that looks like little engine, not the...

Hi guys, its been a while since I've posted on here which means my A4 Cab is running well (hurray!!). Just one minor niggle at the moment... So my A4 developed a few strange cabin noises over the past month or so, squeaks, rattles etc. I isolated the majority of the noise as coming from the...

Hi again everyone, I've started to notice that the 900rpm idle on my Cab is starting to shake the car a bit more than it used to, vibrations through the chassis and most noticeably through the steering wheel. When it's at fast idle (1100rpm) cold, vibration is much less. Is this symptomatic...

Has anyone got any experience of, or opinions on these type devices...

So, it's not been a great start for my Audi owning days. First get the oil-sludge problem, now discover I have a leak in the roof. That'll teach me to buy private. The leak is very slow, as I've said in another post, if you left it overnight in torrential rain in the morning there would be no...

Hi guys, I've got a bluetooth hands free installed in my car, and I've just bought a holder for my phone which came with a plug-in-the-ciggy-lighter charger cable. Because of the position of the lighter socket in the Cab, this is going to look a tad unsightly. So, I've cracked open the casing...

In case people haven't noticed, Audi are offering free MOT tests at main dealers at the moment. Register at: http://www.audi.co.uk/audi/uk/en2/owners_area/Servicing_with_Audi/free-mot.html Just had mine done, passed with no additional work or charges (always a concern when you see 'free' with...

My A4 makes a strange vibrating 'squeak', from the steering wheel/column area, sounds like two surfaces rubbing together. It is more pronounced at idle speeds when the car vibrates a bit more, but is apparent at any speed, but only when the wheel is in certain positions. If the wheel is...

Hi all, I've read quite a few threads on the forum regarding the OIL warning, but my specific problem doesn't seem to add up to any of the standard scenarios. This is my first Audi, bought privately about 3 weeks ago. On Friday I drove to Reading from Cheltenham, as I frequently do, about 10...
