    Bad engine noise

    Does anyone have any idea what this noise is? It's coming from right in the engine. It's like an intermittent rattling/sounds a bit like a 4 stroke go kart. I noticed it after driving up the mountain to where I live. The engine seemed smooth when driving. I noticed the noise at idle when coming...

    Whare are these tubes? Where do they go?

    Hey, my friend thought it would be funny to pull off random tubes on my engine to, and I quote, "see what happens'. In doing so he has managed to snap one of the tubes as it was as brittle as glass. Has anyone got any idea what they do, where they go and how I can replace them? Thanks - Connor...

    How to access the oil pressure sender?

    Hey, I'm trying to access the oil pressure sender to check my pressure, and have ran into a fairly major issue. I'm assuming (with my very little knowledge) that it is located close to the oil filter which seems seems to be embedded quite literally as deep in the engine bay as humanly possible...

    Hi guys, Wish my Bluetooth issue was the only one. My one year old A4 is now stepping up her misbehaviour. I tried to start the car, it came up with an error. I clicked the START/STOP button again and the starter motor went for it, a few seconds longer than normal. Then a strong fuel smell...

    1.8TFSI PCV Upgrade

    Hi, I’ve seen the PCV blanking plate “delete” for the 2.0TFSI but was wondering if there is a similar mod for the 1.8TFSI? The reason I ask is that recently I had the rear crank seal replaced as it was leaking and causing a miss and I understand that a faulty PCV can blow seals etc. I’m not...

    2.0tfsi engines

    hi, looking to get an a6 and these engines seem rare. Two key questions 1. Are they good engines in this range ? I see that they are 168ps whereas my b7 cab is 197ps. Can only assume different engine altogether. 2. Do these suffer from oil consumption issue - is it worth avoiding altogether...
