    My new C5 S6 Avant - V8 family car

    Looks like there was just enough meat left on the bone there.

    My new C5 S6 Avant - V8 family car

    The rack looked like a nightmare of a job. Imagine having to pay garage labour on top of the cost of the rack.

    04 Audi A6 AVANT 1.9 TDI Sport

    If you pull the radio out, the code may be wrote on it somewhere. If not you should be able to get the code from the chassis number on the radio sticker.

    Allroad 2.5 tdi quattro modified 240Bhp !!!

    I would love it as it's exactly what I would want, but I'm a couple of grand short of spare cash. I would also need to sell my B6 first too which needs a few paint touch ups due to inconsiderate car park hit and run bell3nds.

    6 speed manual gearbox linkages

    Ah right, I thought it was in the selector box in the car. I'll have a look now thanks, as I'm already a member on there.

    Better than what the monkey in Knowsley left on my bonnet when I had my Bora '][/URL]

    6 speed manual gearbox linkages

    Mine can sometimes be a bit awkward to get into first and third, so I'll have a look to see if I can see any damage to it when the centre console comes out this week. Does the selector need to be removed from the car from below to do it, or would it be possible to do it from above in situ? Also...

    Audi A6 C5 5gear>6gear swap

    Fair do's. I know on the Mk4 platform the drive shafts were needed to do it.

    Audi A6 C5 5gear>6gear swap

    Do you not need the drive shafts too?

    My new C5 S6 Avant - V8 family car

    Plenty of good work gone on since I last checked in here. I've just finished collecting all the rear bushes for mine, and I need to order some top arms and pinch bolts for the front. The top arms were the only arms/bushes I didn't change up front when I lowered mine as they were fine, but two...

    Major props for going as far as you do when you get stuck into something.

    Auto gearboxes

    Yeah I'm going to stick to manual as I intended. There was just a really nice, well specked, and maintained auto come up for sale a mile away from my house at a reasonable price that had turned my head.

    Auto gearboxes

    So are the auto boxes on these a bit more reliable than the ones the B6 A4 got then, or do they fail just as much?

    Auto gearboxes

    How can you tell which box it has without physically looking for the part number on it? I've never owned an auto before, and would prefer a manual if I'm totally honest, but they're few and far between in good condition, and there are plenty of well specked auto's popping up all the time.

    Auto gearboxes

    Where there two different kinds of auto box fitted to these? I've noticed when looking for a manual that some of the later auto models come with gear change buttons on the steering wheel. Are these fitted with a better revised box, or were the change buttons just an optional extra? I really...

    S6 4B brakes on A6 4B C5

    I'm thinking of selling my 1.9tdi B6 A4 in favour of a C5 Allroad 2.5tdi (would love a 2.7TT, but the sensible side of me says stick to diesel) in the new year, so I'm starting to investigate upgrades for it now. On the brakes front, I currently have S4 brakes all round on my B6. Front discs...

    My new C5 S6 Avant - V8 family car

    Loads happened since I last checked in here, unfortunately not all good. Can you not use the wrong £500 tensioner to do the other side so that it's not dead money, and you have piece of mind the other side won't go, or is it not compatible with the car at all? I'm currently thinking about...
