    Average lifespan of TFSI ?!

    I know.. it's a tough question but some of you out there may have some idea. My 2.0t A4 B7 BUL is stage 1 mapped and going on 125k miles. Is it even worth considering going to stage 2 or more? It's been well serviced with 5w40 premium oil and either Tesco momentum or vpower fuel. Can followers...

    ULEZ ... Need a new (used) car?

    I’ve recently sold my 520D and now looking for a new (used) Audi… At the moment, I’m driving my girlfriends 8P3 09 140 TDI (Stage 1) to work which does about 48-55mpg. I do 50 miles daily from London to Hertfordshire. Now as I only do between 9k-10k miles a year, I’m thinking petrol for the...

    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...

    A4 B7 2.0TFSI, No power and PCV issues

    Hi all, A few month ago I bought a 2004 A4 B7 2.0TFSI, 111k on the clock and a service history up to 105k. The problem is that the car is leaking power. Before I got the car the PCV valve was replace from a Audi garage (April 18), but as soon as I open the oil cap or pull out the oil stick...

    Thinking of buying a 1.8 TFSI

    So I've been looking for an upgrade on my 8P A3, and found a 1.8TFSI S-Tronic. My current car is a diesel and really miss the petrol engine noises. I was just wondering if with a few mods I could make the 1.8 TFSI pop and bang during gear changes. It's really nice car, S-Tronic, Quattro...

    Exhaust tips

    Just wondering if anyone has fitted any after market exhaust tips? Mine are just the steel ones and I don't think it gives the right finish to a nice car so looking for recommendations. They're going to be going on a 2009 2.0 tfsi quattro.

    Exhaust tips

    Just wondering if anyone has bought any aftermarket tips. Mine doesn't have any at the moment and with the oil burning issue they are black as night so just want to add some chrome ones to give the car the look it should have.

    Remapped 1.8TFSI (120) still doesn't feel that quick

    Hey guys, I have a 2010 1.8 TFSI (120) B8 which had the engine rebuild work done by Audi in 2016, since then never lost a drop of oil and it's ran perfect, now on 67k miles so relatively low. I decided recently to have it remapped as the 120 is well known for going to 200-210bhp with it being...

    Afternoon, just whipped the neccesary off to have a look at the camchain, Im getting a lot of rattle at low revs, especially when the engine is cold, sounds horrible, sounds a bit like a bearing grating/rasping noise to be honest. Im not sure how to test the camchain or the tensioners condition...

    Tyre Pressure Suggestions

    Can anyone suggest some tyre pressures for me. I'm running 255/35/19 on a 2009 2.0tfsi quattro with the sports suspension. I've got them quite high at the moment for economy but am noticing the front tyres scrubbing at low speeds so wondered if anyone has experience with tyre pressures and cam...

    New to Audi

    So here I am. First time owning an audi and I've gone for a 2009 A5 2.0 tfsi S line quattro in Aruba blue with pearl effect. Loving the car so far but wishing I'd done a little more research first as tomorrow it goes to the garage to start the oil consumption test as it's going through 2 litres...

    Bargain A4 Avant TFSI quattro B9

    Can’t believe how much of a bargain this appears to be. Fairly well equipped 66 plate with 8,585 miles for £24k! (See link below) I recently bought one but had this been around at the time I would’ve most likely gone for it, not the same spec but cracking price nonetheless. Posting in case...

    Milltek for TFSI quattro

    I am considering purchasing a Milltek Sport + Cat Back System for an A4 Avant B9 TFSI quattro and wondered if any members have gone down this route? I’ve listened to some of the YouTube clips but haven’t heard one in person. I don’t want anything too loud and don’t want any drone at motorway...
