Hi Trevor (great name by the way!) I'm not overly au fait with Google Maps in Audi's but there have been a couple of posts in the past on this forum about the SIM...worth having a search though the site to see what you can find. I seem to recall that overall, this seemed to be the best option as the Audi Maps are a bit clunky. Let us know what you decide Cheers Trevor

Mystery solved ! Luckily it didn't involve taking the car into the workshop and costing you a fortune though. It's not a bad thing not to have keyless entry...after all it is pretty pointless...where to put the key when you're in the car, what happens when you start the engine but have left the fob back at your house (it does happen), still got to unlock your house with a key so defeating the object of 'keyless'...etc, etc. Sorry for the rant...you can tell I'm not a fan of keyless entry, yet another useless development in cars that really is ridiculous in it's concept

Hi Lee....welcome to the Forum Difficult one to answer....I suppose the correct answer is whichever one has the similar rolling diameter (with the wheel and tyre combined) of the wheel/tyre on the car. The best way would be to position 16" against a wheel on your car to compare it....may be smaller diameter wheel but with larger tyre diameter, could be somewhere near it. Let us know how you get on with it Cheers Trevor

Hi Alison...welcome to the Forum We're hearing more stories like this every day...it seems the recall for rectification following the emissions scandal has opened a can of worms. The general advise is don't take it in for the recall but unfortunately, it is too late for you and many others. Lets hope they do a recall to rectify the poor running following this recall Cheers Trevor

Hi Niz...welcome to the Forum There are a few bits and pieces in the Technical section and Guides section on this forum. This also may help Cheers Trevor

Hi Ryan Maybe we should start a 'buying an Audi' section on the forum. I think generally, there are the usual things to look out for but when it comes down to it...you pays your money, you make your choice. I would go with whichever is the best condition, lowest miles, has the spec that you want and I'm sure there'll be compromises somewhere. Let us know how the decision goes. Cheers Trevor

Hi Alex...welcome to the Forum I would check the hub flange diameter and PCD of the wheel studs to see that the discs fit over them. Also, the stub axle mountings for the calipers may be different as well. Cheers Trevor

Hi Danny...welcome to the Forum I would agree that there is little benefit to be gained from fitting an induction kit as the diesel engine and manifolds are restricted to the volume of air that can be induced. A panel filter however, would allow the same volume of air to flow through better which should keep things on course. You could consider a Tuning Box or a Remap which will make an incredible difference to the engine performance and at little cost. Keep us updated on how you get on with modding your Audi Cheers Trevor

Just noticed this earlier...spooky or what

I'd probably end up at the Fish & Chip van instead

Hi Will....welcome to the Forum I suppose it is like the saying goes 'something is only worth what someone will pay for it' Yes, it has huge mileage but if it is a good car then go for it. My only concern would be with retailing it afterwards...it may take quite some time to find the right buyer. Keep us updated with your decision Cheers Trevor

Not entirely sure but I can't see why they shouldn't work once plugged in

It should be a straight forward except you may need a balljoint separator (or large hammer) and a few prybars. Otherwise, just ordinary hand tools, trolley jack, axle stands, etc

I have built a few in the past but it has always been someone else's so luckily they were paying for it all :-) Something to look forward to in the future then

Cool ! every man (and women) has to have a play car in the garage....keeps you young at heart! What would you go for Darren? Caterham style, Atom or XBow style?

I thought you were going to get Nikki to wash your car?

Hi Iwan....welcome to the Forum There are a few different ones on this link but there is one that has filters included in the price...not too bad http://www.audiownersclub.com/parts-results/A4-S4-RS4/Other-Transmission-Drivetrain/46104 Cheers Trevor

Anyone done a track day yet? What's your thoughts on which track events to have a go at?

So who's going then? The list starts here.... 1. Brad-B5 + 1 2. Trevor (hoping to go at this stage) 3. rbdazza 4. SteveQ

haha...that front end looks quite menacing

Hi Heather...welcome to the Forum I agree with Sorin on this but also, I believe the SatNav needs to be unlocked to use this feature, have a look at some of the information in the Tech section on this subject. Let us know how you get on with it Cheers Trevor

Have a look in this section...plenty of disgruntled Audi owners with the same problem http://www.audiownersclub.com/forums/forum/93-audi-recalls/
