    Help! front bumper malady

    I did exactly the same thing a few weeks ago on a kerb in McDonalds. Managed to push bumper back in place but a few of the clips on the bumper itself have snapped. I assume I will need a new bumper in time.

    Audi A4 B7 saloon roof bars

    Yes. I'm sure the B8 Audi is wider and fittings may be different. I couldn't use the B7 rack and fitments on the B8 that I owned that's for sure.

    Thanks Martin I may try that, although the work was done 3 years ago so they may not remember.

    2007 A4 Buying Advice Please

    Hi Tom.S92 - Yeah it looked ok for its age and mileage was quite low, which will actually put some people off. I wasn't that impressed with Evans Halshaw as they said the vehicle wouldn't go through a full prep like at other Evans Halshaw dealerships, and it would basically be sold as seen with...

    Thermostat or Temp Sensor??

    Hi all. I have had my 2.0 Tfsi for just over a week and noticed the temp gauge taking ages to get up to the 90 mark, probably 20 mins at least. Once it gets to 90, it will stay there if I am driving around town. However, as soon as I go on the motorway it drops to halfway between the 50 and 90...

    Audi A4 B7 saloon roof bars

    Don't have a part number for OEM ones but the Cruz ones I bought last year as above are now surplus to requirements as I have a B8. Interested in buying them at all for a reasonable price? They are the silver Aluminium ones by the way. You can have them for £25 plus postage (I am in Manchester)

    Oil pick up pipe strikes again, think I will defo look at getting mine changed now as I am on 92k miles.

    TFSI oil pick up pipe replacement.

    The push bike changing gears sums the noise up perfectly. I do use good oil and it is serviced every 12 months or 10k miles. However, I will have a listen to mine and see if it is noticeable. This wouldn't be a job I would do myself if it needed changing, would rather give it to my local indy...
