    And it's goodbye from me....

    Guys Time to change marques for the first time in 18 years. My Audi love affair started with my Mk1 TT 1.8T (225) circa 2000. Mods (265BHP and £1000's later), I changed to a "pose-mobile' after 7 years and went for a 1.8T A4 cabriolet Quattro. Got the rag top thing out of my system and went...

    Audi 2.0 TDIe 136ps - MPG

    I got my TDIe for the £30 road tax I've always taken the quoted the mpg with a pinch of salt - achieved under unrealistic test conditions. I've always struggled to achieve anything close to quoted figures unless I drive ultra-sensibly (boring) I've got a fairly heavy right foot and usually get...

    WAV is not compressed so it "should" sound better than MP3 (Can't say I notice between one of my 128kbps MP3's and a WAV file though....) The question was whether the MMI can read lossless file types as well as MP3

    Agreed: higher bitrate is always better I've just had a look at the last SD card update I made from my music library and there are a couple of lossless files amongst there and I'm sure they play on my Concert - will confirm later

    Agreed Geoff To add, all things being equal (bitrate, file format, etc), and using the headphone socket to connect to the MMI, my FiiO outperforms my 3rd Gen iPod noticeably in terms of sound quality and volume. I've got more of a choice of equalisation with the FiiO too. The Apple players...

    Guys Quick update re my cheapo fleaBay microSD card: don't do it :/ Invariably, an unbranded 128GB Class 10 for £7.99 will only last a few weeks before it f**ks up Problem first started when I tried to update my card and it wouldn't copy files over or had unreadable files on the card...

    a4 b8 audi concert sd card

    I've just started using the SD card reader for mine..... fantastic! Saves faffing around with the AUX cable and an MP3 player and it's totally stealth (no cables for prying eyes to take any interest in) I bought a generic 128GB micro SD card with adapter (Class 10) from fleaBay for £7.99 and...

    Replacing drivers seat

    Kronny I've been looking at replacing my shitey cloth seats for second hand leather ones but also came across custom fit cover alternatives. As my seats are in good condition, I could save a few £££'s and have new leather in the car. Can you PM details of where you got yours from? Thanks
