Steve320cd · Saturday at 02:12 PM4 days

Hi all, was on le shuttle yesterday coming home when I noticed my drivers mirror indicator must have had a stone hit it and broken an inch off, no damage to the mirror. Has anyone replaced one? Is it an easy job and where to get a replacement that is the correct whiteness without paying main dealer price? Tia

S-Line suspension change

lbr1978 · May 17May 17

Hi all Looking for some advice on changing out the rather firm and jittery S-line suspension on my 2024 A3 8Y (black edition) to something more comfortable and softer (possibly akin to standard SE suspension or equivalent). Any suggestions on what I should be considering and looking at for daily driving only please? I’ve heard Bilstein (B4s ?) and maybe the eibach pro springs would help make things more comfortable? thoughts and suggestions much appreciated. Any real world experience of changing

Latest SQ5 Transmisdion whine

Bas Ryan · Monday at 02:03 PM2 days

New to Forum. I’ve owned 5 SQ5 (all new or ex demo) since 2016. 4 V6 diesels which I honestly think are an incredible car and my current car the new V6 petrol version. The quality of this new model has definitely taken a dive but my main gripe is the awful transmission whine from 60mph upwards. It’s like driving an old Landrover. The dealer maintains he can’t hear it. Everyone who rides in the car or drives it spots it straight away. Surely my car is not the only one with this problem? Any thoug

Are S5's notorious for not being serviced?

ZeroX · Saturday at 10:46 AM4 days

Hi, following on from my previous thread, I have seen another car that I was interested in: https://www.evanshalshaw.com/search/details/used/audi/a5/automatic-petrol-white-coupe/06ce9494-f94d-f111-8fdd-000d3a874790/ When I enquired with the dealer, they said there is only one stamp in the book from February of this year, and no history at all in the Audi database. So there is only evidence of 1 service in almost 10 years. I am starting to get a bit !Removed! off with this actually, and it's real

Bose radio antenna mouse damage!

Robert Coop · Tuesday at 08:53 AM2 days

Good to join the Forum. A mouse got into my wife's beloved light blue 2004 A4 TDI Sport Auto Convertible (she has had it from new) and has chewed through the aerial cable under the back seat. and damaged it in two other sections. What connectors are recommended to re-join it and are they easily sourced - the garage made out I might need to go back to the loom - surely not? The radio is the original Bose Symphony. Thanks, Robert

I've been seeing more and more posts across FB and multiple forums about people having the alternator failure related to the 48v mild hybrid system and wanted to see if anyone has had this issue and how their experience has been. I know in USA they have announced a TSB with an extended warranty for 7 years but I am trying to get more info from Audi UK but not getting anywhere. Has anyone had this issue and if so has Audi fixed it (if out of warranty)? It seems to be tha

Hello everyone, Wondering if anyone can help me. A few weeks ago my EPC light came on and immediately went into limp mode and started jumping when driving at 5mph. After a few hours I came back to the car and it was fine so I drove it to my storage unit. I came back the next day and when starting it the EPC light and EML light were illuminated and the idle was quite rough. I came back to it about a week ago and all the doors were locked, the key isn't unlocking it and the barrel of the central
