its a lot harder now because of brexit to buy from the uk here in ireland as theres a 20% customs charge on anything bought from the uk,its a right pain.

yeah i was a bit unsure of the mmi oil level sensor at first but after changing the oil a few times it does seem accurate to me.

i must see can i disable it so with the vcds,i must also get more familiar with the vcds as i only use the basic functions on it up to now.

a good quality two sided tape [gorilla]would do the trick id say

its an interesting debate folks,i personally hate the start/stop system and when i use our a6 i turn it off the minute i get into the car!

i cant see how you would calibrate a dipstick?

seatbelt adjuster is what id call it.

hi ali,that seems very unprofessional by a main dealer to drill holes like that in a new bumper.id be going back to see what they are going to do about it.greg

hi lads,you can buy the connector with the 2 pins on ebay and it connects then to any standard obd .greg

id say audi tradition in germany should have them

hi ben,a friend of mine got a clutch fitted in 2016 a6 in the main dealers,clutch was slipping like mad and it turned out the new clutch got contaminated with oil by the apprentice who worked on it,they eventually took it back and replaced the clutch after a lot of hassle

thanks ian.

ah it could be worse.hindsight is a wonderful thing[supposedly!]

no problem

hi ian audi tradition in germany still stock genuine parts pre 2004.they shoud have these but ask if they are oem as i got a grill last year and the quality was rubbish.i emailed and told them so they sent me another one and that was crap too. they are not cheap either!

thats a bit of a set back steve.were you driving it when it happened?

thanks for that ian,ive had mine out today for a run.its a monthly meet called cars and coffee,i went in december and there was 3 cars but today there was about 70! roll on the spring and summer.i must check ebay for rubbers as ive put it off for the last few weeks with other stuff going on,ill update if ive any joy.thanks

hi josh, did you check the heat shield is secure?

a friend of mine has a 2007 q7 and it had the same issues,eventually he sent the ecu to a company in the uk and they reprogrammed it,no problems since,i think it was ecu testing that solved it.greg.

hi alex,i bought my vcds last year and was told by the supplier that it works and includes all new models up to 2024.greg

thats a nice touch ian with the dash lights.im going to do the same soon.ive a retest on wed here for my nct [mot].id a few small jobs to do so its ready now for the test.

well done,thats a great detailed explanation on doing the job,i dont think id be brave enough to take it on tho.greg

do you mean an awning for a touring caravan?they are very handy.

as far as i know ,inspection due,needs to be reset by vcds or a more advanced diagnostics than the one your using.greg.

yeah theyre not too bad,the ones in the pictures looks very snug!we used them camping and they were a lot nicer than sleeping on the ground.
