  1. I have owned it for 8 months, having bought from the Audi main dealer in Exeter with 15000 on the clock and 1 previous owner. I have done 5000 Miles in it. Audi Exeter have today informed me that the pressure plate "is currently deformed as a result of overheating, We have also found that the dual mass flywheel is worn and also has heat spots present. This means that it hasn’t been a mechanical failure of the vehicle, this would be caused by an external influence." They have told me that it isn't covered by the Audi warranty and it will cost me £2858 to have it repaired. To say I am gobsmacked is an understatement as the AA man who recovered me said the clutch pedal going to the floor was a common problem and it is the clutch master cylinder rubbers normally. Has anybody else experienced this, has anybody any suggestions, how long should a clutch last? This is quite unbelievable! The garage have said that I must have been riding the clutch or driving with my foot on the clutch, neither of which I do. If the master cylinder rubbers were faulty is it possible that the pedal was not disingaging the clutch properly?
  2. Thanks, I bit the bullet this afternoon and found an empty but permanently live socket in the fuse box. It states it is for the the towbar electrics and there isn't one fitted. It seems to be working, charging while the ignition is off. I haven't got a green box in my fuse box! Thanks again.
  3. I wish to hardwired my dash cam to be permanently live, so the parking camera is active. Can I plug the power into a permanent live empty fuse space in the fusebox. I'm looking at slot 30 that in the book states Infotainment. But as I say the slot is currently empty of a fuse and I believe not connected to anything, though with my tester it shows there to be battery power whether ignition is on or off. I don't want to fuse my Infotainment system! There are 3 fuses that are identified as Infotainment and are permanently live but they are obviously connected to the Infotainment system as there is a fuse in each of them. I think if I were to take out one of those, cutting power to the system I would cause problems and muck up the system. Any help appreciated.
