Hi All, My first post so apologies if I miss anything protocol related. I've recently purchased a new forged engine for my 8P S3 and plan to start the rebuild shortly. I'm planning on aiming for the 500BHP mark as I currently had the original engine stage 2+ mapped with the necessary external components uprated. I'm working through the ancillaries that I need to upgrade but I am stuck on the clutch selection. I originally had a SACH 450 clutch installed but know it will not be up to the job of handling the additional power gains I am aiming for, and I need to consider the majority of my driving will be road use. Can anyone recommend a performance clutch that can handle this sort of BHP and be user friendly for the road (handle plenty of stop/start traffic queue scenarios)? Thanks PaulZ

Hi one and all. Purchased A5 40 tdi just over 12 mts ago and been pleased up to now!!! Then woah and behild add blu fault comes up on dash, top it up still wont go off!!

Any advice info appreciated abd sorry fir long message. Says wont be sble to start in 20 mikes as well????

I didn’t want to go black and be a Eastern European gangster (if that’s a thing) was aiming for settle but still aggressive

Does anyone know what ports Audi use for the Spanish built A1. Many thanks 👍🏻

Did you ever figure this out?

Thank you so so much for your help I really appreciate it. This is only my first Audi.

Thanks Gareth did not spot that one the second thread is probably out of impatience, usual M.O. Steve.

I am looking for some help. I have an Audi A5 3.0 TDI V6 Black Edition Plus Coupe 2dr Diesel S Tronic Quattro which I have owned for 4 years with out any issues. Recently I have noticed that it sounds like it is over revving. I can be driving at 40mph, the rev counter will show 1100 -1300 rpm but it sounds like its at 3500+ rpm. Has anyone experienced this or have any idea what the issue could be? Asking here before I take to a garage. Thanks.

Looks lovely! Got good weather now 😉

Hello Mark, Welcome. Have you got the same problem? Kind regards, Gareth.

Be careful doing it as one of my glovebox hinges has snapped as the plastic has gone brittle. Definitely try wd40 etc. If it's moving slightly you could put felt on the edges of the glovebox.

Hello Avinash, Buying second hand?? I wouldn’t, even if I could find one. Probable solution:- Do a Google search for local-ish commercial vehicle hydraulic specialists/suppliers. They should be able to point you in the right direction to get one made up. Perhaps you could let us know how you get on. Kind regards, Gareth.

I have the same issues. I have reset the MMI, reinstalled then Audi app. deleted the Octopus app even thought I am not on a cheap tariff and its still giving me random charging dates and times. its annoying when you have to keep checking the app to see if the car is still charging. I am going to call into Audi as see if they can help.

On my A6 Allroad, the current ride height is highlighted in orange, while the other height settings are just blank boxes. so I would assume yr assumption is correct, but greyed out rather than blank. when the old Allroad had suspension issues, all height segments were blank if I recall correctly.

The comfort control module should be under the carpet. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Alternatively get an auto electrican to take a look

Do t forget the old saying, if it sounds to good to be true/too good of a deal it probably is.

Hi halogen lights are cheaper until you get in to the coding and wiring changes, you might be better served buying second hand apart from that the majority of people want xenons because the light output is far superior, you may well spend a lot of money to fit halogen lamps only to be disappointed when you can't see as well. Steve.

Definitely. It's not good.

Sorry Shak, I’m failing to link lack of stop/start with water pump and cambelt. Kind regards, Gareth.

Running it with barely any oil will more than likely knackered it. Have you checked for leaks? As it shouldn't be low unless there's a leak.

The only thing I can think of is that the cars had a replacement head unit at some point
