Hi folks
Got myself a brilliant red 3.0tdi quattro, going to be a daily. Impressed with it so far…… A few things to sort, but its been looked after. 78000 Miles 2 owners, serviced every 5k miles too!
First problem to address is a flickering left xenon, so before i go out and buy a replacement bulb or ballast, is it easy enough to change to bulbs out? Not had a look yet. Going to swap left to right and see if the problem moves with the bulb or not. At a guess id say it’s probably the ballast though. So looking on eBay, theres ballasts for about £35, are these worth it? Always a bit sceptical of cheap parts on eBay, chinese stuff can vary in quality shall we say.
Also for those running 19” alloys, whats the option on best tyre profile/width to go for, don’t want anything too low profile? Thanks
Think id like to go rs4 style front grill, but i believe i have to be a bit careful as theres a difference with the s-line grill being slightly longer/deeper at the bottom. Will have a look for some inspiration on here.
I’m sure there will be other questions as i go, but thought id start a thread on the car… Any pointer/comments welcome.
