    507 or 508? What oil? 2016 1.4 tfsi

    I’m confused. I went into TPS recently for a service kit for my A3 and one for my daughter’s A3 too. They had no problem with the parts for my car but did not know which oil her car used. Hers is a 2016 1.4 tfsi facelift car. They said it was either 5/30 50700 oil or 0/20 50800 oil. How can I...

    400 club (miles per tank, not bhp)

    I have had 550 out of mine one one tank - twice! However I have to say it was running on fumes when it came to fill up on both occasions. Both long runs. Normally I get about 380 with a little left. Mark

    Yeah.... (sigh) mines the same. E- win shows the correct wiring but until the controller is accessible it ain't gonna work.

    LED in door handle retrofit

    I got the led defuser from a 8p and cut the door handles on my 8v to suit. There is a rectangular box marked on the inside of the door handle where the diffuser fits into. Surprisingly it can be cut through with a Stanley knife. Saves a bomb on new handle prices. Mark

    Retrofit puddle lights & door warning lights to 8V - help please.

    The pins don't give the voltage because they have to be switched on in the vcds first. I do not know how to do this as I don't have access to the proper ros tec software. I can only suggest if you have the correct software you have a look in the rear doors and see if there is a box that can be...

    Retrofit puddle lights & door warning lights to 8V - help please.

    I think this is wrong. The guy said the was no control box in the rear doors but there is. The Live wire connects to pin 12 of the 16 pin multiplug and the earth attaches to pin 13 (already used) and the control module has to be set in the vcds. This is what the elsa win wiring diagram shows. I...

    Retrofit puddle lights & door warning lights to 8V - help please.

    Hi. I was trying to do this almost a year ago but was getting a bum steer from the German site. My fault too as I thought I was dealing with ambient lighting. Yes pin 16 is the live and 5 is the earth. Also if you are doing the led in the door handle (I was using an 8p supplementary loom) it is...

    Actual mileage different from advertised

    Same happened to me. The ad said 3000, the salesman's paperwork said 2500 but the car had done 4000. I was offered £150 worth of audi accessories but pushed it to a £250 set of roof bars that I have yet to use. Mark
