Right. Cool. Thanks for the advice :)

Sorry, yeah, manual 6 speed. I thought so, too, but I had an A3 1.8T which lost its box at about 120k. It was chipped, though.

Morning All: Wondering how long my gearbox is expected to last. I can't find any service intervals information for gearboxes. It's an S Reg A6 2.5TDI Quattro Avant with 165k. Several owners. Remapped (no chip). Good service history, all up-to-date. When the box goes it'll be a write-off...

Hey guys. Does anyone have Isofix bars in their C5 A6? Is there any chance you could pop the seat up and get me the part number? There seem to be several versions of the bar - the one I need has a width of 18cm between two bolts. I have obtained a copy of ETKA and contacted several...

It's Nero Black, and as I said above ;) it's an '03 plate.

I looked on Autotrader and there weren't any of this spec of car. Older ones, yes, newer ones with this mileage, no. So basically, somewhere between £2500 and £4000 depending on getting lucky with a buyer. Well, that's depressing. I won't say what I paid for it :keule: Serves me right...

This is my first Audi, not sure of the market, so seeking advice! Might downgrade car - I drive very few miles and it seems silly to have the insurance when I never get the benefits of 180bhp! So, if I put it up for sale, what's it worth? Audi A3 1.8T Quattro T Sport 03 plate 114,000 miles...

Batteries I can deal with. Skin I can afford to lose. As a backup, a local Audi garage as agree to do them for 30 minutes labour. Thanks for the info - I'll give it a go I reckon.

I want to change the main beam and dipped beam.

I can't find a guide anywhere for this. Is it possible to change the headlamp bulbs on an 03 A3 without taking it apart? The gap behind the lamp looks pretty small and there are several exposed wires. Last time I did this on a car it was a 'twist and pull' thing. Trying not to go to a...

OK, cool. I have the level adjustment, so I don't have xenon. Therefore, H1. Excellent, thanks. Now I just need to figure out how to change the bulb! Probably involves removing half the wheel arch, the bumper and the headlamp unit :think:

Hey guys. I'm going to express my profound ignorance here, but what bulb do I need? I am not even sure if this is a HID or not? A link to a bulb that will fit will be greatly appreciated. It's an 03 1.8T Quattro Sport, if that helps. Thanks!

Halo Spark Plugs, apparently, are the mutt's nuts. This Crewchief guy sells them: http://www.crewchiefspitstop.com/acatalog/Performance_spark_plugs__.html Halos are supposed to reduce fuel consumption. His site doesn't look much, but he's well known over on Celica Club UK, and everyone swears...

I've always used Autoglym products and I rate them pretty highly. But as above, I have heard some excellent things about Dodo Juice and will be renewing my stocks with Dodo products. I suppose ultimately it depends on the condition of your paint. I think you'll struggle to get shampoo and...

What I would do is get in touch with Opie Oils (http://www.opieoils.co.uk/) and then let us know what they say. I know these guys from other forums and they really know their oil, and offer honest advice. This link: http://www.opieoils.co.uk/products-for-my-vehicle.aspx?product=oils-for-my-car...

Agreed, there is a problem with us (read as the English) in the UK allowing old habits to perpetuate. However, I have to insist that the Arab mentality (and I am speaking of the average Arab in general terms) as found in the man on the street in many Arab countries is to see others as they...

If your engine is designed to run on 98RON then it should get 98RON. A lower RON reduces power and increases wear. I also found I got about a 10% increase in MPG by switching to Shell V-Power.

You're right, I forgot the Oil Connection. There's always an oil connection. But, why England? I lived in the Middle East for a while and I think it's fair to say that's how they see us. Arabs tend to think in terms of nationality and family (tribe), race and religion. I said "England / US"...

Just maybe (though I don't think so) there were compassionate reasons for his release. But, and this is what the Scottish courts failed to realise, the consequences of this release are going to be plentiful and undesirable. First off will be the increase in applications for compassionate...

Hey guys, I'm looking to replace my rear bumper. Thanks to a dark car park and concealed pole, I have a fold and a puncture in mine :sadlike: Are all A3 bumpers the same? Will an S3 bumper fit? I have a 2003 A3 Quattro 1.8T. Any suggestions on where to go to find one in Nero Black, and what...
