    Standard grill swap for black edition (8v PFL)

    Rear wiper washer water entering boot?

    the letters are usually different variants or in some cases updated designs, not sure in relation to the motor id be hesitant to replace the whole motor if its still working fine, try patch the leak with some silicone or epoxy or anything else you have on hand, heck duct tape might work for a...

    I've neglected my car for a while now. I want to show it some love, what can I do to make things better? It deserves more.

    Also a pretty simple job to take the guards off, you'll fly through it if you've ever changed brake discs, since they're the main thing that need to come off along with the calipers

    Not sure about the guards, mine were in a bit better shape so I just cleaned them with a wire brush and painted, I doubt they'd be expensive though. For the tire I don't think the shop will take them back but you could try selling them on a second hand marketplace online

    he means check the diameter of the wheel including the tire is the same as your old ones, otherwise your speedo will be off by a bit, you can adjust this with simple coding tho afaik

    I've neglected my car for a while now. I want to show it some love, what can I do to make things better? It deserves more.

    this is more down to personal taste but i would replace the wheel center caps with audi ones and either get some nicer looking lug bolts or caps for the existing ones

    I've neglected my car for a while now. I want to show it some love, what can I do to make things better? It deserves more.

    definitely get those tires sorted, even if you go with part worns theyll ride better and probably last longer than those cheap tires would from new also paint the brake calipers and sort the guards behind the discs, i did mine last week and it made a huge difference (i went with gloss black)

    Engine Noise When Ignition Switched Off

    if it comes on then it means that the car is attempting to regen the dpf but your journey wasnt long enough to allow it to complete, because it has not completed it will try it again the next time you start the car and so on until it manages to complete the regen cycle. if it does it after every...

    Facelift Front lower wishbone

    nvm i stand corrected, just did a bit of research and the control arms do creak on these cars!, before buying new parts and replacing though it may be worth just spraying some silicone lube on each bushing one by one and trying to pin point exactly what is causing the noise (dont use wd40 as it...

    Facelift Front lower wishbone

    just fyi tho its not very common for wishbone bushings to creak on these cars, since the bushings are actually bonded to the wishbone they cant slip to creak as far as i know. Creaking could more likely be from your strut top mounts or front sway bar. I have a creaking in the front end too and...

    Rear wiper washer water entering boot?

    actually look at the part closely first, if it can be ordered separately it will have its part number on it somewhere, no part number means you cant buy it separately
