All Had an issue with the EPB not releasing a while ago, and have been living without it by leaving in Park, and had no further problems. Until today, that is. PArked up at home this evening, left in Park, ignition off, out came the key, and a strange noise from the rear wheels. It sounds...

Hi All My 2005 C6 Auto has developed a intermittant fault where as I release the parking brake, the warning comes on the dash, and beeps like crazy. Initially, it would go if I turned off engine, and locked the car, and restarted the whole process. However the last couple days, it is happening...

All Lunchtime today, driving through town. At roundabout, stantionery, put the car in S Mode from D. As I pulled away, a bit of a clunk, and as I proceded, a mechanical type rattling loose noise from my side of the car. Not excessively loud, but noticeable. Drive and power seemd unaffected...

Good Afternoon Looking for some expert help. The Mrs 1.8T GTi 3 Door central locking does not work properly. The key fob buttons are knackered anyway, but it still does not worjk from the key in the door. Well I say it does not work - it unlocks both doors fine, from both doors, as advertised...

Hi All From the pic below could someone please be kind enough to let me know what version disc I need to upgrade to 2011/2010 maps for the UK? Mine is at 2005 and a bit out of date. And is it a simple case of removing the old and inserting the new? Many thanks in advance Matt

Hi All - actually did it yesterday - bought 3.0 TDI S Line Le Mans Quattro! It is a few years old, but 66K Miles. Lovely car, had to travel up country to get it, but had a thoroughly enjoyable drive down, averaging 37 MPG down M42, M5 and A30. Would probably have been higher but had to try...

Hi All Can anyone confirm whether the rear middle seat is as uncomfy in the saloon as it is in the Avant? Just looked at a 55 plate Avant Quattro and the middle rear seat was diabolical! Hardly perfect for family. What does everyone think?? Regards Matt
