So the cars gone in the garage this morning, turns out my back brake calliper was siezed - wheel wouldn't turn at all! 

This appears to have buckled the wheel and its now also rubbing inside the arch ... I have been driving her against her will from the look of it! 😒

Hi if you get the car diagnostically scanned that will tell you what is playing up as it will have thrown a code or two up, other than that it would be like playing pin the donkeys tail.

Hi Steve, I had the AA rrun a diagnostic check and they said it was because I needed new spark plugs - 2 x cylinders not firing? 

Had new plugs put in in November and it was fine for a month 🤣🤣 gather that was NOT the problem 

Hi guys, I had an issue with a stabilisation fault message and then engine management light coming on intermittently with my 62 plate A3 - this kept throwing the car into limp mode. I was told it was a spark plug issue so I had them changed bit its started happening again? 

Could this be brake related - happens when I'm going uphill mainly.

Any advice is good advice at the moment

I have this car on finance and don’t know if it has ever been in an accident or damaged/ repaired - is there anyway I can find out? 

I Hi to all reading this 🙂

i have been the proud owner of a 62 plate A3 for 10 months and love her to bits.

a few days ago I noticed that the paint has cracked around the rear passenger side arch and also on the lower section as the arch moves onto the bumper.

this car was immaculate and I haven’t had a dink or a scrape and it hasn’t been from a vindictive attack - the paint has purely cracked!! 

Does ANYONE know what this might be caused by??
