    S6 or not to S6..?

    I’ve recently changed from an A6 BiTDI to an RS6. I’d definitely have another BiTDI. Does everything well but as some have already said, not many good spec ones around. RS6 is a monster and I love it though, can be tame and surprisingly economical, and can be a complete hooligan. BiTDI is a...

    Eliminate diesel clatter CDUC, CDUD 3.0tdi

    Ok great. Think its probably best to suffer the noise for another week or so then rather than risk damage. Appreciate the insight [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Eliminate diesel clatter CDUC, CDUD 3.0tdi

    Thanks - why would the EGR be shut off ? When it senses a fault with the Swirl Flap does it close the EGR? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Eliminate diesel clatter CDUC, CDUD 3.0tdi

    I planning to do this in the next week or so as I tried it but didn’t have the right tools to get access to all the bolts. However, i have tried disconnecting the swirl flap connector and it is incredible how much quieter it is. Other than a potential check engine light, would leaving it...

    Eliminate diesel clatter CDUC, CDUD 3.0tdi

    Just has a quick look at this. Whats the best method for getting the housing out as the 4th bolt on the swirl flap housing looks very difficult to access with an allen key. Do I need to undo the Jubilee Clip on the flexible pipe and then start undoing all the hex and allen bolts? Sent from my...

    Eliminate diesel clatter CDUC, CDUD 3.0tdi

    Think I am going to do this tomorrow. I have a 2016 BiTDi with 57k on the clock and I can’t help but think it is much more clattery at low revs than it used to be. Think I will remove the housing and clean it and remove the butterfly at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just resolved my rear parking sensor issue but mine was due to damaged wiring caused by it sitting on the hot exhaust. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    BiTdi - lumpy engine at startup ?

    I’ve had this a few times over the last 12 months. Has tended to be when its very wet or very cold. Probably happened 4/5 times Wondered whether glow plugs might be a little iffy but it happens so rarely that I am just leaving it for now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Swirl Flap Removal

    Anyone else tried this and if so what difference did it make? I always think mine sounds a little ‘dieselly’ at low reva when setting off and thinking this might make a difference. https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/eliminate-diesel-clatter-cduc-cdud-3-0tdi.381051/ Sent from my iPhone...

    2018 A6 Allroad

    I have a suspicion that the hardware is the same between the 218hp and 272hp version so the map could get you over 300hp. I’m no expert though!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2018 A6 Allroad

    Yep Just corrected my post as it was meant to say 4! The 2.0 is a 4 cylinder single turbo, the two 3.0’s are V6’s with a single turbo (not sure if it is the same turbo or whether the difference in power is just the ecu) and the BiTDI is a twin turbo V6 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2018 A6 Allroad

    Looks nice Got memory seats and pan roof. The more powerful 3.0tdi would obviously go better but if you are not fussed about that (and 7.1s to 60 is plenty really) it will be nice and smooth regardless. You may be as well looking at an A6 with the tech pack just to compare and see if it...

    2018 A6 Allroad

    It is better, bigger display, better resolution, faster to load, colour dash etc but the standard one is perfectly functional. I compromised as I wanted the Tech Pack but there were very few BiTDIs around in general and hardly any with Tech Pack so decided to go for one that was at a near by...

    2018 A6 Allroad

    Hi You can but it is expensive (c£3.5k) and you could invalidate your warranty. You could do it yourself for less but its a fairly big job Something I am considering when mine is out of warranty at the end of the year Mike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
