    Steering wheel getting while Turning

    I think you are in the wrong forum @Aces. Sounds like you have an 8P model. @Sandra can you help please ? BTW the problem sounds like a power steering pump issue.

    No number plate lights !

    It was a while ago, but I think the direct power feed was connected to the actual bulb terminal (with the light unit still attached to the car's wiring). Seemed to remind the car power feed what it was supposed to do.

    Try Ebay for an Elsawin disc for your PC. Been invaluable to me.

    Lining Pockets and Storage Areas

    Yep, the anti-slip rubber honeycomb matting works well in the recess behind the handbrake / under the armrest. Cheap too.

    2010 A3 Quattro 170 Cambelt Help?

    I wouldn't be worried as such, but the belt and water pump should be changed when the car is 5 years old.

    Bluetooth text reader volume

    Have tried that, no difference. Wouldn't be so annoying if it hadn't worked fine before. Could definitely be phone specific as it doesn't work at all on my wife's Android HTC.

    Bluetooth text reader volume

    When conected to Bluetooth, and a text message comes in, the DIS states "incoming call - voice mail" and the car voice women tells me who it's from. She then asks if I want to read it or ignore it. If I say"read it" the same voice speaks what has been texted, in proper English, albeit far too...

    Bluetooth text reader volume

    Hi all I have the OEM Bluetooth, coupled with the Concert stereo, and everything is good volume-wise . . . . except for the voice that reads incoming text messages. When I first started using the Bluetooth it was fine, but now I can hardly hear what is being said. The volume for all the other...

    Hi all , what alloys are these???

    If you increase the diameter of your rims from 17" to 18" the popular opinion on here seems to be that your suspension will need lowering. This prevents the "moon buggy" look.

    Black Edition TDi 140 or 170 ?

    Yout inputs are greatly appreciated guys. Thank you. I am looking for a red or white 170, with rotors and mffbsw, sub-40,000 miles. Blue would also be an option, but they are like rocking horse poo to find. I do around 300 miles a week, mostly at motorway speeds, so diesel is deffo the way I...

    alarm led not flashing

    Around 18 months ago my alarm LED just stopped working. Lincoln Audi did a fault check - nothing showed. A new LED was tried, but no joy. They came to the conclusion that an earth wire must be broken somewhere, but it would mean removing the dash to find out where. Not cost effective, so I...

    Black Edition TDi 140 or 170 ?

    Thanks for all the responses so far. Keep 'em coming. I'm not looking to go down the remap route - any mods I go for will be purely cosmetic. Definitely looking post-2010, with DRLs and Rotor wheels. Trying to keep away from black paintwork too.
