  1. Today
  2. Yea my colleague bought hee new it was a 2016 model.
  3. I'd expect 40s unless just town driving and short trips.
  4. I'm not sure but I'd get this into a garage to be checked asap if it were mine.
  5. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. When was the auto box last serviced?
  6. That's odd. If within 30 days take it back to the supplying dealer to sort as this should be done FOC
  7. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Very nice, sure you'll enjoy it in summer, if we get any!
  8. I have reached out to Snapchat for support, but it seems like it is useless. A few days ago I changed my Snapchat password (I thought I was changing a password to another account) and then deactivated it. I tried to reset my password via phone/email, but it seems that it does not work, then a friend of mine referred me to a great guy that was able to recover any hacked/ deactivated or deleted account, message Yt7crackersz@ gmail .com & I.G @ Yt7crackersz To get back your compromised account, he is the only professional to resolve my account issue within some couple min..
  9. The franchise dealer I bought from is a chain, the car was in Scotland and they had a branch ~30 miles from me. So close enough to buy from but not close enough to pop over to. I could ask another Audi dealer's parts dept closer to me, will investigate.
  10. i thought it would be worth more than that ,as there's so few left
  11. Hello Alex, I believe it should lock. Possible cause - sticky solenoid plunger which moves to lock the cap. Open the flap, and look to the side of the inside recess to locate the plunger, then give it a squirt of WD40. Alternatively, you may need to remove the boot inner side covering and attack/ replace it from there. Kind regards, Gareth.
  12. Hello Anderson, Opinions will vary greatly - from spending extra on Audi pads since your labour is going to be free, to any of the ones you have mentioned, and many more. I certainly would not use Mintex based on my experience of last using them on a Rover Cabriolet with rapid wear despite new calipers. Once one of the most respected brands, but now…??? You mentioned Pagid, so I wonder if you are looking at ECP as a supplier-? I seldom use them for parts, and prefer to use Parts in Motion, and some other EBay suppliers who have given me competitive prices on quality brands, and overall great service. Worth trying P in M. I’m currently ‘experimenting’ with Brembo pads and discs on a family member’s non - Audi to good effect, so I currently favour those. Hope some of this helps. Kind regards, Gareth. p.s. Do you have a wind-back tool for the rears?
  13. Hello I wanted to add that I just added some oil because maybe enough oil had leaked to the point of metal to metal grind would start to occur. The sound stopped and I’ll be getting a oil change this weekend I’ll be back to report 🫡
  14. Yesterday
  15. Yeah the Q7 has loads of codes for everything. 01577 turn off due to over temp is a common one for the pump as well as the level control system going on about lower/ upper limit exceeded etc and even a 01583 code for leak detected in system. There should be some codes stored that will be an indication of what it’s unhappy with.
  16. I'm actually having a similar issue. First I'll start off by saying its the Audi A3 2008, it's an 8p chassis and 3.2L vr6 motor. So earlier this morning my gauge was working just fine, then randomly went down. It is a pretty cold morning so I was assuming that it was just the cold temp, but I took the long and slow way home and still didn't even go up. After getting home I checked the hoses, they have flow and the hoses are hot. Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary when it comes to the engine running etc. No leaks, I checked the bottom hose where the sensor is(I think that's the sensor anyway) its still in there pretty good. Now when I started checking the gauge to see if it had any movement, I noticed when I turned the key to on the needle goes up such a small amount some wouldn't even notice, like a little spasm. But when the key is turned to off, it goes back down the 1mm if that. Not sure if this is a cluster problem or a fuse problem. Some people were saying check the plug in the engine block and Im lost for words on that cuz not a clue as to where that would be. Any help would be welcomed. Im pretty good with mechanical stuff, not so much electrical which is what I am assuming this issue would be. I believe the engine code is also CBRA if that helps.
  17. Hi they are always a pain as the water from the washer rots everything try a good soak in plusgas then use a deep socket, other than that its a new motor. Steve

  20. My Audi A6 2008 has recently be showing up wipers defective whenever I turned the car on but would quickly go off and the wipers would work as normal this went on for about two months until they fineally stopped working altogether . After about two weeks of them not working altogether they came on randomly at one point and jammed themselves down under the bonnet of the car after this they have never came back on .. I have replaced the linkage , the motor (multiple motors) the wiper control module and the wiper arm stalk inside the car and still cannot get my wipers to work I plugged it into the computer and it’s not showing any problems . Every wire and relay possible has been checked .. It seems the wipers have put them into service mode and won’t take themselves out of it , I’ve tried manually resetting the wipers but she just puts herself back into service and won’t seem to come out . I’m at my wits end trying to figure this problem out if anyone has encountered anything like this it would be a great help if you could point me in the right direction
  21. Good evening Phill. I liked a post, do you have a Facebook page so I can get information about the sound of my Audi from you?
  22. This is the item I’ve purchased. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001894016181.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.4.74e0f19cckTq7v
  23. not presently. The parts are no. Refundable. you are looking at around £800 in parts and if you have parking sensors, camera and radar you will need to pay for calibration of which is around £600 but this may vary from dealer to dealer.
  24. No I actually just went to my local mechanic. I'm not sure if I just got lucky but he's very trustworthy and reasonably priced. Based around Dalston in East London.
  25. Recently bought an a4 avant, drives fine and no lights on dash. However start/stop doesn’t work and I’ve noticed when scanning it I get one code U010E lost communications with reductant control module, just wondering if this is normal with an adblue coded out?
  26. Hi, Looking for some help please, (vehicle type in topic title) - In the first instance I went to regas my A/C, the engineer that attended mentioned the system was full and that he had carried out leak tests and confirmed no leaks were present. However he could see from his instruments that when I switched the A/C on, the compressor wasn't switching on and that a number of things could be causing it. (He mainly only does regassing and not an actual A/C repair specialist). I did a fair abit of reading and a common issue stemmed from the high pressure switch, which I've replaced with a brand new one. I've also checked ALL the A/C fuses and they're fine too. There are no other issues present at all, car blower works like factory, heating elements are fine etc A/C is still blowing air at normal temperature (literally no difference in how cold the air is when the A/C is switched on compared to off). Does anyone have any ideas or come across this before? Thanks, Rohit.
