  1. Nice one,another one saved and back on the road,if you’re not fitting it yourself even better just need to get it all clean in time for the so called summer that we get,hope all goes well with it
  2. Still learning myself,found the leak eventually had to do it in the dark,neighbours use to it by now, it’s coming from the crossover cooling pipe between cylinder heads looks like the rubber seal has gone on connection to pipe on passenger side, a lot of stripping down to get to but that’s the fun of it,cheers Steve. How are you getting on with your car
  3. Hi all,has anyone had a coolant leak at back of engine,seems to be coming from where the flywheel is and dripping down to where the metal bar is for securing the under tray to,has only happened since I topped up the coolant,it’s a 3.0l a6 c5 Quattro 😬,thanks
  4. That makes it an even more special occasion,hope all is good for your wife,it’s really good to hear a nice thing considering life can be !Removed! at times🙏. Going to go and get half my body dry from the waist down was pouring down with rain when under car,will keep updated with it and if it solves the problem,again congrats
  5. Congratulations,you might want to make that long term on car😁,you’ll be kept busy,getting there on health just this daft brain playing up amongst other things .my youngest is down at limpston just now on his last bit of training for royal marine commandos it’s been a quick 22 years,so make the most of your time with your new arrival because it flies in,I’m sure you’ll get it on the road and pass it down to your children,was just under car trying to get to this f125 switch🤬,if I get it done within three days I’ll be happy don’t want to push myself or accidents will happen
  6. Hi Steve,sorry to hear about the cars(a bit unlucky)sorry not responded been ill, have you tried engineengineering.co.uk,had a quick read of this content last night when looking how to replace my f125 switch on car,not been driven for a long while then had this problem,anyway looked back just now at engine code and this company have full reconditioned engines 2.5tdi v6,they might have others also just if you’re thinking of a whole rebuild
  7. Sorry to hear that Steve, I’ll have a look about for that type of engine and if it’s a straight swap if you want,don’t sleep much so up most nights and early mornings. Also got myself a good diagnostic tool and changed klm to mph on mine,also found an old thread from snap-on about the gears all light up and also in gear 4, turns out that disconnecting the battery can cause this,had a intermittent problem on the f125 switch,the thread suggested you do a throttle reset or relearn so did this and no more problems with the gears,in drive it’s shows gear 1 not 4 in triptronic also 1 ,I’ve not had the gears all light up since this and no codes /faults appear and that’s been over 2weeks and it’s more responsive,so here’s hoping.again hopefully you can get yours back on the road
  8. Hi Steve,how’s your Audi doing.will it be back on the road soon or is it worse than you thought
  9. No problem m8,hopefully your post won’t be to bad,I’ll be ordering the trim that goes over the mirror adjustment with the folding mirror symbol on it,I’ll see how many they have and order a few if people might want them,won’t ship to uk because of brexit but have family in Ireland will ship there first then to me
  10. Are they easily available 🤞
  11. Found paperwork,gearbox oil change not done,most things except that have been done ,will diagnose before I do anything,cheers
  12. Hi Steve,I’m sure it was done before I got car,will check paperwork if I can find it (daft brain playing up) can’t remember where I put it,will also check the Japanese paperwork with Google translate to see,also was looking at an obdeleven diagnostic things,on android system it does a lot of stuff,checking,coding etc. similar to vcds but less complicated I think ,as it will only be for my car
  13. Might be worthwhile getting one of those steel under trays Steve,are they easily got,if so might get one myself as the country roads here have more holes in them than a government manifesto,like most places have,then it’s us that need to pay for it.just last summer between me,daughter,son had 7 shock absorbers and 4 springs all within 2 months,crazy…hope it’s not to hard on the wallet m8
  14. Hi all,couldn’t find the proper thread sorry. What’s happening is when car is in park then put into reverse it’s ok then when I go to move gear down to drive I noticed that the light on dash jumps back to park then moves along the gears and lights up drive as it should, then in drive and go to reverse it goes to park first then lights up reverse,when it does this you would not see it unless you’re looking for it. Could it be the multifunction switch needs replaced or is something slipping at the gear stick side,the odd time all lights on gears are red,if someone has had similar issues and got fixed would be greatfull for any info, cheers
  15. Sorry to see that Steve,at least it’s fixable😀
