    Stutter at idle (misfire) but no codes.

    I've got a 57 1.8tfsi and I have, what appears to be, a slight misfire at idle. The PCV has been replaced along with the rear crank seal, and oil pick-up pipe which seemed to improve the idle but the shudder has come back. Car does drive fine with only a slight hesitation from partial throttle...

    Wheel spacer help

    Hi, I have an Audi A4 b7 2.0 tfsi special edition.. bought some 12mm spacers (24mm per axle) however the hub lip is too long so the spacers don’t sit flush. Would it be ok to cut off 3mm off the hub lip? Or are there 12mm spacers that fit without having to do this? Thank you

    Buying a 1.8T 8P3?

    Having owned several 8L's and 8P1's myself in the past, I've been thinking about buying my girlfriend a 1.8T 8P3 however a quick search shows that most 'new' Audi models are suffering from chain/oil/piston ring problems? I've tried searching the forum for exact list of affected models but no...

    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...

    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...

    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 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...
