My B6 avant has a full size spare wheel. Apparently the fuel tank is different also..shaped like a sadddle...... Mike.

Yo......Have a wee read at this thread.... Just finished with an alarm problem it might help http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/showthread.php?t=53355 Mike

Try shouting at your local dealer....an audi should not have flakey paint .... Mine changed the one that was flaking and I bought the other side an upgraded both sides to the euro versions. Much more efficient and also quieter, they seem to sit below the bonnet line. Mike

Go On Name an Shame What version of xenon's did you have fitted ? Mike

Thanks Dave Lets hope the newer designed unit will last a bit better. When I disected my old unit it was exactly as described in the How To write-up. But it might be possible to repace the batteries with different laptop batteries instead....will see.. Mike

Well here's a wee update. Collected new sounder on Friday, Audi have changed the design to a new slim line unit, which has a larger mounting bolt. Drilled out the original bracket to accept this larger bolt and fitted it in the same place as the old unit . Reset all fault codes and ran the car...

Now now now boys I think you'll find the Germans have Very sensitive hearing......... or sumpin.. Mike

Hi Sprocket, New unit cost £81.36 inc. from audi dealer. Sounder has 3 wires. 1. Earth 2. Connected to convenience unit, Trigger wire ..I think 3. Connected to convenience unit, Power Supply via fuse 38 I think.... The Vag com errors could be a simple electrical termination detection...

Thanks for the info Guys. I've ordered a new sounder from audi. I decided as it is part of the integral security on the car not to mess with it. Can't really afford the time to mess with it. I will dismantle the old unit when I get it out to see what is going on. I can't believe that there is...

Thanks A44NI Will have a look in the morning. How do I get at it, do I have to remove the seat or can I get access by just pushing the seat back ? Would I not expect to see more fault codes with Vagcom ? Thanks Mike

OK Alarm still going off today although I did notice that the lights wern't flashing . The car could be opened and started whilst the alarm was still sounding. I carried out a test to see if the alarm was still working and it was, with lights etc all flashing so sounder is NOT an alarm trigger...

Hi Folks..... Please HELP. I have an A4 B6 2003 avant and my alarm has started to continually sound, although its stopped at the moment. It doesn't seem to matter wheather the car is locked or not. It even sounds when the engine is running. I have also noticed that when I lock the car the the...

Thanks Pablo. I drive past them every day to work. Have you used them recently on the quattro? Left the car into Agnews yesterday at 10.30 to have this done, when I collected the car at 3.30 they said their equipment was faulty and couldn't do it but would I mind waiting while they took it to...

Hi Folks, Just spashed out on four new tyres and now need to find a good reliable place to get the wheel alignment set on a B6 A4 Quattro in Belfast/Northern Ireland ? Have had a few disasters and want somewhere I can trust. Any Ideas? Thanks Mike

Oh Go on.......Show Offf.......... Quite correct though.

Ian PM'd shark_90''s e-mail to you. Mike

If you don't fancy doing it yourself give Ben Shark-90 a PM. Did a superb job on my 2003 avant. Got full DIS working as well. Very easy to pay......He'll take any currency ........ Can't remember the price or parts but depending on the steering column control module you have you might have to...

Not only does the Hazard light stay on, but you might also find that the radio/sat Nav. Bose Amp will stay on for a while after you have switched the car off. This is also normal so..... Don't Panic... Mike

I think the switch only refer's to the full kit. If you only have rear sensors then no switch on the dash. Possibly a retro fit set. Sounds like a faulty sensor... Mike

Hi Guys, I've just been reading this thread and I'm horrified. As I drive a 1.9 TDI I hope this doesn't apply to me ..BUT I really think a list of owners with this problem should be started and sent to the BBC Watchdog programme as suggested earlier...
