Hi all Recently installed RNSE into my Audi everything appears to be working ok apart from i have no contacts listed on the RNSE itself but i think that is something to do with a coding setting 'Convenience mode', is this correct?. But i also just wanted to check whether the mode button on...

I have now owned my nearly new 1.8 TFSi Black Edition for over a month. My previous car was a 1.8T Quattro so engine wise i haven't moved up or down! But the new car has less BHP(160). ( why didn't they keep at at 180!!!!!!!) My question is, the new car doesn't feel as quick as the old...

What is the answer?? When I turn my climate control on AUTO the AC light comes on which therefore means AC is on. I always turn this off as I usually use AC in the summer not the winter. So do i turn this off or do i leave this on? What do you guys do?

I am currently enjoying my new A3 Black Edition (2010). But what i found really weird and a tad annoying was the colour of the fog lights(when on). The car comes with lovely led lights and xenons but when i switched on the fog lights these were of the yellow colour!!! Why would Audi do...

Hi all If all goes to plan i am due to pick up a Audi A3 Black Edition (2010) tomorrow! But one of the problems i raised with the dealer was the s line door strips were really dull and what looked like water stained. Not sure why they are like this in just two years but has anyone come...

Due to the arrival of my baby girl I have to upgrade my 3dr and become the responsible adult and go into the 5dr market! I currently own a 1.8t Quattro. Although the age of the car is old (12 years) it runs perfect and still is a dream to drive. I have decided to remain with the 1.8t engine...

Am I right in thinking that when I turn the car on there should several lights on the dash and one of the being the Engine Management Light? As I have never seen this light at all .(Not that I want to see it, as this light usually means doomed!) This has come about as this morning I had one...

Have a weird droning/whirring noise coming from the steering, after searching the forum it maybe haldex oil change or the power steering fluid. I'll go for the cheaper option first the power steering fluid but I don't know where to change this? Anyone got any pics? Or can you direct me in the...

Audi A3 1.8T Quattro 2000 Merlin Purple Have had my car tracked and double checked that the tracking aligment is correct but my car still moves to the left if i hold my steering straight. The bloke at the garage seemed to think it could be the wishbone bushes? Is there any truth in this? I...

A3, 2000, 1.8T Quattro. I've searched the forum for threads on this but cannot find my answer. Can anyone put me in the right direction to finding the pollen filter? What does it look like? And how do i change it? I have managed to change the air, oil filters and the spark plugs so i...

I have a 1.8T quattro 2000 70,000 miles, the last time i got it serviced i took down to my local audi dealer and oh yes they serviced it but they also took all my money!! So i thought this time i would service it myself! So i changed the oil, oil filter, air filter and then when i got the...

I've trolled through most of the threads and I think I am on the right track as some of you guys have had similar experiences. I have a knocking noise at the front of my car I am certain it has something to do with the steering as it drives like a boat (as some of you have stated), I have had...

A3 1.8T Quattro My car is in the garage (due to me losing my talent on a bend!) and currently I have RS4 reps on it. Whilst it is there I am thinking of replacing these with genuine RS4's. Does anyone know how much they cost (without tyres)?
