As Paul has already said, it's quite lovely down here....blue skies, sunshine and really quite warm....although I am still gutted that we didn't get any snow!

Happy New Year to all Now what were my resolutions again....?

Merry Christmas to you all....enjoy!

That's not a bad price, and VAS are a very good garage. Happy Christmas to you and yours also.

Hi Edd Usually pumps do get noisier as they start to wear and then scream when they're about to pack up completely. Maybe it would be fruitful to source one whilst you have the luxury of time rather than waiting for it to go and having to make an impulse purchase. I believe you should be able to fit it yourself but if not, at least you'll have one when you do need to replace it and even the AA or RAC could fit it if necessary. Cheers, Trevor

I do recall the OE running board kit being of superb quality and incredibly weighty so should last for years

Hi SunniD I fitted some running boards to a Q5 last year and they came from 4x4 Direct. They were an absolute pig to fit but came with video and written instructions which helped tremendously but still involved quite a bit of work to fit them so not a job I would recommend without a ramp at least. Cheers, Trevor

An opportunity to run your car on the Dyno The cost will be £40.00 each (perhaps a Christmas present?) There are also plenty of places to grab a cuppa/beer afterwards in Farnborough. This place has been chosen as it seems central for most people in the south. Those interested, please let @Southampton Graham know as soon as possible

Hi Scott.....welcome to the Forum Good to have you onboard Cheers Trevor

Hi Paul...welcome to the Forum Good to have you onboard Cheers Trevor

maybe we need to start a New York and Caribbean branch of the Audi Owners Club then :-)

Worth running some fuel additive through the engine before condemning any parts....that and an Italian Tune-up should do the job

Not sure how you check it on the Q5 but I know that there is some information in the forum on bringing up the software version information Check out posts by @niedzial1983 as I'm sure he has covered this before
