    Assistance needed identifying part

    You don’t state what year your car is so I just looked at the 3 door A1 of 2015 to see if I could find it. It looks like it could be an S-line with a rear spoiler like that , is this it? Item 7 in the following pic ....

    New A1 central locking Issue

    Holy thread resurrection I know , but it cannot be done doing the above . The above merely controls how many doors unlock when you first unlock your car using the remote fob. For the last year or so my mum has been bitterly complaining that each time she stops her 2018 A1 and takes the key out...

    A1 Hidden Extra's through VCDS

    I think it’s a case of going through long coding helper on each module and seeing what can be changed as the spec of cars obviously differs year by year. I went through the modules on my mums 2018 1.4 TFSI COD150 and think I only found 2 things I wanted to change ; horn beep confirmation on...

    A1 2018 SPORTBACK S LINE Space saver

    You don’t need to spend a vast amount of money to do this mod, I’ve just done the same for my Mum’s 2018 Sportback as we didn’t like the idea of having no spare. I ended up buying an 18” Mk 1 TT space-saver from eBay for the grand sum of £40, part number 1J0 601 027M. I believe this is the same...

    Buying Advice

    My A3 8P S-line (as per my signature) on factory -fitted 18” alloys has a ride that is rock hard and whilst I love the car it is the only aspect of it that I’m not entirely happy about. The 2018 A1 S-line that has just joined us (on 17” wheels) however has a ride that whilst firm is no-where...

    Do new cars still come with a key code tag?

    Thanks for the info, the salesman made a follow-up phonecall today and asked if everything was OK with the car so I asked about the key code situation (I had emailed but had received no reply!) and he said they no longer come with a key tag. You’ve now confirmed what I was told, so cheers.

    help. which one

    The 125 PS supposedly doesn’t have as good consumption /emissions as it doesn’t run on 2 cylinders on demand. We were about to order a new Sportback (with the 125 PS engine ) as we had quite a long list of things the car had to have (pan roof, S-Tronic, S-Line , Glacier White with contrasting...

    help. which one

    Just a quick reply. We picked up a March-registered A1 Sportback on Friday with 400 miles on the clock , it’s a petrol S-Tronic 1.4 TFSI with the COD engine, so 150 PS. The journey home was 180 miles , mostly motorway at a steady 70ish, although we did encounter a horrible hour of...

    Do new cars still come with a key code tag?

    I know older cars used to come with a black plastic tag with a white label on it stating the key code , but do new Audi’s still come with these? I ask as we picked up a new A1 on Friday (well 3 weeks old!) from an Audi main dealer and only received 2 remote keyfobs and a clear plastic tag with...
