So driving to Dunbar via Edinburgh on Friday still unsure whether to buy or not (although had transferred funds in to current account), but the wife just would not let up. Buy it if you want but I want something in return, here we go I thought this is going to cost me. In the end it would cost...
Looks like I am going to buy one of these two motors. What one do your recommend. Both are 2.0tdi (170), Avant is a 60 plate with 70k and the Le Mans Saloon is 59plate with 52k. Deal is I get to keep my 19inch rims (just bought new tyres), I think they would look good on the Avant.
Why am I...
Earlier today I popped in to Deutsch Marque in Edinburgh to look at a couple of A6 S lines they have. Well to cut a long story short it went rather well and ended up getting a price to swap. When he HPI'd my car, he could see that someone in Northern Ireland had done an HPI check just a couple...
So finally got it on today. Big thanks to fitting guide from ScottishS3, couldn't have done it without the guide. Took a while to get a grill I liked at a reasonable price, but more importantly with front parking sensor brackets. Think it looks the nuts, now the chrome edge has gone.
Now to...
2008 S-line 170 Saloon.
Got to Edinburgh Airport at 5:30am and there was a warning light on dash saying bulb out. When I got to London thought all I had to do was go on to Euro Car Parts website, put my Reg in and it would know what bulbs I needed.
But today when they arrived I had a look in...
Been away from for a few months but I'm back. Just ordered and RS style grill and LED pack from T8ups, so committed again to the car. Was not sure about keeping it especially after messing about with a tuning box for six weeks, before giving up and getting a refund. But suddenly found I was...
Just looked my car up on Halfords to check right Oil and it came up saying Audie VW 5w30 full synthetic. The book says as I have a DPF it needs to be VW507 00 oil.
So question is I have some Mobil 5w30 Fully Synthetic in the garage from my petrol ford last year, will this be ok to top up with?????
Well new timing belt (and water pump) fitted last week, when I got it back I fitted the tuning box in jig time. 15-20mins as I was being pernickety on where the cables went. You could probably do in 10mins if you wanted. Super easy and the build quality seems spot on.
So how does it go. There...
After an exhaustive week of looking and quizzing, I decided the tuning box idea was the best option for me. I have been used to doing remaps through the OBD (Or whatever) but seems this is only possible on the B8 after the ECU is removed then doctored. So the tuning box seemed the easier option...
So trying to work out best way to play tunes, got an iPod cable for the connector in the glove box, all good. But for the life of me I can't get it to see the SD card, when slotted in it just says empty. Even though I have loaded with MP3's. Everything else seems to woe fine with the system.
As...
Just bought this two weeks ago. It's a 58 plate early 2009. TDI Sline 170. It has Full Leather, B&O Sounds and I am not sure what else is not std at the moment. Paintwork is pretty flawless, wheels one scratch each so will need a refurb come the summer.
So far it has blown me away by the...
Not happy, can't use my short plate with my private reg as the bumper has been screwed on the outer edges of the plate. So now have to use a full size plate with a short number. Tried the short plate, but only lasted two days before I couldn't cope with the screw holes anymore. Don't fancy a...
Ok, never had an Audi Diesel before, should I expect to get a whiff of burnt diesel every now and then when driving with the windows closed. Had a few Diesel's (Non Audi) and never had this before. I am thinking there might be some filters needing changed on the air handling?????
Just had my...
Hi, just bought this last week. it's a late 2008, dealer said 170bhp TDI. It has done 94k. I am assuming it has a timing belt rather than chain, if so when are they due to be changed and what likely cost am I looking at? Thanks in advance. Greaaat Car, love it love it love it!!!!!!
Hey I'm a newbie so please be nice.
Just picked up my 58 plate A4 S line last week. The car is stunning and still getting used to it. But noticed the tyres are odd. I have 255-35-19 on the front and 235-35-19 on the rear. What should they be? As the rest of the car is mint, I though a new set...
