    steering wheels

    There are loads of threads on this very subject, but in answer to your question, no they probably wouldnt work. If you get a flat bottom SW you would also need the airbag as they are a different shape If the original SW wasnt MF you will probably need a new slip ring, a SW control unit, the...

    Coming back to Audi

    Having driven the car for about 3 hours since i picked it up, (thats 2 hours more than i drove the 3.2 for in about 3 weeks), i can say i am very happy with it. The only problem i have is the road noise it produces. I hope that it is the new tryes that were fitted prior to collection. Neil...

    Coming back to Audi

    Finally got it all sorted. This afternoon i picked up a Feb 2007 A3 2.0TFSI Special Edition in Akoya with a few extras. It cost me a bit more, but aleast the car right. It is imacculate, and while the colour wasnt my first choice, its growing on me. The car feels quicker than the 3.2 that i...

The car is being PDIed on Monday, and, in the salemans own words, will be fully inspected and made mint. It will be in their own interests to make sure that the car is right, as this has...

    Coming back to Audi

    I picked up my A3 3.2 last Thursday, and its all gone tits up. During my test drive of the car, the engine light was on illuminated, so the salesman said it was just a faulty sensor, and the part would arrive in a day or so. The new part was fitted, allegedly, and all was well. About a hour...
