alpha omega

hi all,has anyone removed the steering wheel centre ring badge and audi rings from the airbag. if yes where did you get a replacement from as mine is worn.thanks stephen

ask your mechanic see if he/she can look it up

who knows why the machine says wiltshire clifford.also the dates wrong,as i had it checked today lol

you make sense gareth....unfortunately i am on a budget(yorkshire man)lol

i bought an audi a 4 b8 with bills and with one bill it said clutch high.it showed no signs of slipping then 3.5 years later it suddenly started to go then went completely while on a busy by pass.all changed including fly wheel £1500 garage in north yorkshire

update.... garage managed to squeeze me in was worth the wait....it was the offside rear speed sensor,but he had to remove the wheel hub to get to the sensor.(circled in the picture)....it was seized so knocked out what he could then used the air gun with a grinder on the end to get the rest out.let that be a warning to anyone.(garage job).here is a picture with the wheel hub removed.no more warning signs and 2 bleeps everytime i turned the ignition on.thanks everyone for your thoughts.

update again here is a read out for now on the battery until i can find somewhere to have it fully checked over

update this is what a scanner is saying should i still go down the route of a battery cannot get into a garage some i wont touch

had the battery changed a few months back,and halfords said it never needed coding.but it was a halfords battery i bought from ebay.they said it was new and i trusted ebay and halfords lol

i had the rear calipers changed by the garage 3 months ago at a cost of around £500.i tried ringing the garage i know they are quite busy they have been good to me so i will try them first and let you know.....i tried clearing the faults ,but come straight back on...AA gave me a quote online at 285 fitted.....but left that for now until i know what the garage comes up with....but strangely enough the cd player showing its faulty too.....hence i thought battery....i mentioned about the battery a while ago but never come back to you all as everything was going ok....so sorry. regards stephen

hi,gareth thanks for your imput will upload pics soon of faults

audi had quoted 582 fitted........update and solution AA said its not the battery its a sensor on the back brake caliper,causing three yellow lights and two warnings when ignition on.."phew" thats a relief thanks all

just rang audi....just for the battery alone its £390 "gulp" he could not get through to fitting.....but he did say it needs coding.....so thank you richard

please do as mine is similar to your lay out and has a screw in each slider

exactly clifford. i had to get the garage to free the caliper holding bolts as my snap on would not shift them and as above cleaned and sprayed the area

thanks richard.a bit tight with money at the mo. i will call audi,as i dont know anyone with vcds.thanks stephen.

there is one on ebay and he says it does not need coding item no 335930276319 ive heard on here it does.who is right please.regards stephen

can someone help me decide which battery would best suit my audi a4 avant estate 2.otdi stop /start as its now showing a few faults,and suspect its the battery.or should i just use halfords and let them decide.thanks stephen

glad you sorted it

fleabay

lol of course not gareth sorry i put it across in a go and do it now lol.i meant when ian feels he has the time.kind regards stephen

as a last resort take it apart then you will know for sure😁

it so frustrates me when i read so many times about a garage diagnosing something and it still does not fix the problem.note the garage says( according to their diagnostics) to cover themselves.🤕

what a shame glad i have mine which is in my audi a4 avant b8 2011 would you have a pic of the interior we could look at thanks

well done steve Q for guidance and ian for looking further into the app
