https://vid.me/EiJP https://vid.me/EiJP Not my Audi. Just bought a 2007 Passat estate with a 2.0 BKP engine as a runaround for the dogs. No loss of power, no errors on VCDS. No smoke. Is this a vacuum/exhaust leak or is the turbo going to implode imminently? Wanting to drive it to Spain in...

My car (2.0 TDI BKD) has hunted at idle ever since I've owned it. Tried adjusting idle level to no avail. I noted that whilst at idle, VCDS shows a value of 455mg/str (normal range 100-300). However this doesn't throw an error. I get around 500 miles to a tank and it's mapped by Darkside at...

I'm doing a white DIS retrofit on my A3; it all works fine when connected. Just needs coding to the immobiliser. My speedo and rev needles no longer work in my current clockset and MOT is due. After buying all of the parts and sorting the additional wiring, Stoke Audi have just phoned me to say...

So I finally got around to fitting my MFSW. It all works fine (buttons aren't quite right but I have an Android HU so can rectify that), recalibrated the steering angle sensor etc so have no errors on the dash board. My only problem is that I've now lost my cruise control. I Think that my issue...

Please see 10 second video: All interior lights are on without the ignition on. When I put the ignition on, the ash tray light, drinks holder light, and cig lighter all go out after 5 seconds. I presume that this is when the ECU does its checks. Anybody have any idea what might be causing...

Quick one, does the 2.0 TDI (BKD) come with an auxiliary heater as standard? My car seems to take ages to heat up when the weather is cold, and I've read that these units should blow warm/hot air within 1 minute. Thanks

Hi all, Rear TRW caliper has started sticking on my A3. Currently running standard 256mm discs, but have always thought they look small with the 18s. I've used the search but it seems inconclusive; what are the upgrade options available to me? Can I use the carriers from a 2.0 TFSI or Golf GTI...

Just thought I'd upload a few pictures from the last 2 month trip around Europe in the A3: Italian Alps: Vinaros beach, Spain: Parque Nacional Cazorla, Spain: His an' hers A3: Off again this year in August and cannot wait!

Hi all, Changing my single din concert to a double din screen. Currently sourcing parts and have a couple of questions which aren't covered in search: 1) Are there any physical differences between early double din cages and the later 2009 facelift? 2) Can I use the facelift white climate...

Would really appreciate some help here. I fitted PS19W LED bulbs in the sidelights/DRL to MY10 headlights. Look great. Lights will stay on with the engine off. However, after a couple of minutes of driving they're both completely out and not working. The resistors are wired in parallel...

Audi Concert system; after disconnecting my battery to change the starter motor, the radio no longer comes on/off automatically when I turn on the ignition/remove the key. Buttons no longer light up, only display screen. Also switches itself off after 45 minutes. As if it's connected to battery...

Had the car mapped by Darkside 4 weeks ago, who played with the timing... and now the timing belt tensioner has failed. It looks like they've overtightened it because the stud for the tensioner has chewed into the head, elongating the hole; I now need a mobile engineer to helicoil, a new...

A bit stuck, had my 2006 2.0 TDi (BKD) mapped by Darkside 4 weeks ago who altered the timing and the belt is really loose. It cut out while driving 2 days ago and it's jumped a couple of teeth; it will no longer start. I can't move the car to get to a specialist but I'm not confident enough to...

Hi all, Car started to lose power and then cut out on the motorway yesterday. It won't start at all, turns over fine but won't fire up. Got a cheap code reader which brings up 19464 - camshaft sensor. Initially I thought it was the fuel pump as it's been slow to start after being left for a...

Okay, so I've got a PD 140 with an odd starting issue. It has a 'C'/2006 head. Symptoms: If left more than 5 hours, it takes ~ 3 seconds of cranking before it'll fire up. If you shut the engine off immediately, then re-start the car, it'll fire up first turn, so it's pointing towards the...

HI all, Changing the in-tank fuel pump this weekend to hopefully cure the hesitant cold starting. Just wondered if there are any tips from people who've done it in the past, that might help make the job go more smoothly. I don't have the tool for removal, but believe that it's not an absolute...

Hi all, Been using these forums as a source of info' for the car for a while now, finally bit the bullet and thought I'd join. I'm a trainee doctor currently living in Stoke, drive a 2.0 TDI with an RS3 kit. First picture attached was taken in the Italian Alps on a 2 month road trip this...
