Is your fuel gauge working ok? Gauge needs to show at least 1/4 tank or DPF wont trigger. My gauge had an intermittant fault resulting in no DPF regen and car going into limp mode. I replaced the fuel gauge sensor and DPF immediately started.

Fingers crossed.

i think your right spartacus, im out right now but i’m pretty sure i do remember seeing that audi symbol. that’s definitely a bonus then. to be honest gareth, that was what i first had in mind, sanding some scratches, filling them, sanding again and then painting… but for some reason i tried to paint too much over and it caused the primer to split. and yes, definitely. at least i’ve now realised how challenging a task it is and that it’s not worth all the effort. but your right, i do love to DIY and you get that sense of achievement and another thing to add to the resume😂 - not this time though of course thanks frank.

Hello Frank, I completely understand the logic of why you wanted to DIY this - job satisfaction is indeed rewarding. The problem here is, you won’t be completely happy with the end result. If it was just a question of rubbing down some scratches, priming, and a couple of light coats of colour - just to make them look a bit better - then fine. Take some positives from it Frank, although it’s possible, you have found it’s not worth while. Regards, Gareth.

They look genuine, thought I saw the Audi rings near the wheel bolts, turn them over, usually a part number on the rear.
