    P0299 underboost please help

    There is some suction on the oil cap when I remove it while the engine is running. It’s not difficult to remove, is that normal or does the pcv valve need replacing?

    P0299 underboost please help

    Hi, its done 111K and hasn't been remapped. I've replaced the N249 valve (diverter valve) with the revision D.

    P0299 underboost please help

    Hi, I have a 2007 2.0t BUL and when the turbo kicks in it sounds different and has not much of a kick. With a diagnostic scanner this code came up. I've changed the dv and smoked tested and found no leaks. Does this mean the turbo is going bad? What's the best way to diagnose it? Thanks

    Hi, how did you solve this problem? I too have the P0299 code, changed the dv and smoked tested and found no leaks. When the turbo kicks in it sounds a lot different. Maybe it needs replacing? thanks

    Wheel spacer help

    Hi, thanks for all the advice guys.. I ended up doing what just rob said and grinded off 2mm of the hub lip, was quite easy. They were just some cheap eBay spacers, should of ordered some quality ones. Ordered 20mm ones for the rear, hopefully I won’t have to modify the hub lip. Put spacers on...

    Wheel spacer help

    Hi, I have an Audi A4 b7 2.0 tfsi special edition.. bought some 12mm spacers (24mm per axle) however the hub lip is too long so the spacers don’t sit flush. Would it be ok to cut off 3mm off the hub lip? Or are there 12mm spacers that fit without having to do this? Thank you

    Replace temp & fuel gauges?

    Hi, I have a 2001 Audi A4 b6 3.0 Quattro sport.. Both the temp and fuel gauges don't work all the time. I've read that you can buy a second hand instrument cluster and swap out the individual gauges, is this true? If so can I use any b6 cluster or does it have to be the exact same model...

    I saw some oil on the underside of the rubber power steering pipe and assumed that's where the leak was coming from. Will take a closer look. Cheers

    3.0 v6 oil leak help?

    Sorry if this is a dumb thing to say but I've got an 'engine oil' leak and always topping up the engine oil and if that high pressure power steering hose is leaking, wouldn't it leak power steering fluid and not engine oil? So then the engine oil leak is coming from somewhere else?

    Just had a look on google pictures of the same engine and it does appear that the rubber pipe on mine has slipped quite a bit. I'll try to push it back into place and secure it with some cable ties.. Thanks for your help

    Can someone please provide a link to an eBay listing of an aero blade they've bought for their Audi A4 B6? I know there are some out there but haven't found one that fits my car. I have an 2001 Audi A4 B6. If I can't find them I'll look at getting some B7 arms. Cheers
