Hi Krish....welcome to the Forum I think maybe the readout/sensor may be slightly out of calibration as 108 degrees C is rather high and I think the fans would be running constantly if this was the case. Maybe best to measure the engine and coolant hoses with a temperature gun to accurately determine if this is the case. Keep us update on this one. Cheers Trevor

Hi Ken...welcome to the Forum As Juggati has mentioned, there aren't too many faults but the emissions one is really causing problems at the mo. Timing Chains/Belts can be an issue...just make sure the service history is up to date and has always had quality parts fitted. Otherwise, they're great cars Cheers Trevor

Hi Ian...welcome to the Forum Know what you mean about 'not feeling the love' for the new Audi I suppose it's a bit like an old pair of slippers that are absolutely knackered but really comfy. You'll soon be comfy with the new Audi, I'm sure Cheers Trevor

Hi Dermy...welcome to the Forum To post up to the gallery: Click on the link to go to the gallery and then upload as many photos of your Audi as you like http://www.audiownersclub.com/forums/gallery/category/1-members-albums-category/ Cheers Trevor

Hi Russell....welcome to the Forum Sounds like the panel has gone faulty as Bradley has suggested....keep us updated on this as would like to know the outcome. Cheers Trevor

Hi John....welcome to the Forum That's a beautiful looking Audi....love the wheels as well Cheers Trevor

Hi Lewis...welcome to the Forum The V6 is a fantastic engine ! Cheers Trevor

Hi...welcome to the Forum Feel free to post up a piccy of your new Audi when you get it Cheers Trevor

Hi Mark...welcome to the Forum Welsh people are always welcome on here Good to have you onboard Cheers Trevor

High Miles are fine as long as they are the right sort of Miles...e.g not round town Taxi miles but Motorway Miles are fine

Hi Barry...you should be able to get cheap one here http://www.audiownersclub.com/parts-results/80-90/Air-Intake--Fuel-Sensors/173865 Cheers Trevor

I agree with Darren...VagCom is much better than ordinary OBD code reading as you can real live data, functions and much more

The stickers are external ones...so probably wouldn't put them on the roll down side windows (possibly may fade/peel them?)

Sticker dimensions: 24cm (w) x 2cm (h) White font on clear vinyl sticker £2.50 (pair of sticker) £0.99 Postage & Packaging Usually dispatched within 2-3 working days Click this link to buy your stickers

I suppose the only other enhancement from standard if towing heavy loads on long journeys would be a transmission cooler (not sure whether Audi produce a larger cooler as such) but this would definitely preserve the life of the automatic transmission.

be good to see some pics of it to see if its Original Equipment fit

Hi...welcome to the Forum There are a few for sale on eBay but I think you will need to activate the system (if not already) to read the disc Here is a link to some bits & pieces http://www.ebay.co.uk/dsc/Vehicle-Parts-Accessories/131090/i.html?LH_TitleDesc=1&_ddo=1&_ipg=100&_os=PS|D&clk_rvr_id=1162308106438&lgeo=1&rmvSB=true&_nkw=Audi+A8+S8+sat-nav-disc&_pgn=1 Cheers Trevor

Not sure if it conflicts with any race meetings/shows I attend but otherwise, yes...it should be a great show (especially if the sun shines throughout the weekend) I have contacted the organisers and asked for a Club stand area there (depending on how many members are interested in going) so will post up anything I receive back from them. Watch this space !

You could look at later style headlamps (see link) http://www.audiownersclub.com/parts-results/A4-S4-RS4/Headlight-Assemblies/44240 and a selection of rear lamps to choose from http://www.audiownersclub.com/parts-results/A4-S4-RS4/Rear-Light-Assemblies/44262

Here are the results from the Survey http://www.drivn.co.uk/tyre-brand-survey/

Hi Chris...welcome to the Forum Certainly love you soft tops then ! Sounds like a great car...pop up some photos if you like. Good to have you onboard Cheers Trevor

Hopefully there will eventually be regional meetings taking place over the various areas of the country for all to participate in. Not many meetings South of where I live though :-(

Anyone planning to go to this event? http://www.audisinthepark.co.uk/ We do intend to have a club stand at the event but ideally we need 12 cars minimum. We also have a club banner for the event. Attendees will be able to have a FREE Audisownersclub.com t-shirt and FREE club stickers for those who need them. Just like VAG Tuner Live Steve q will be bringing along chocolates and drinks for members to enjoy. As well as brining some folding chairs. Please reply in the audis in the park attendees list topic if and when you've bought your ticket and what t-shirt size you require. If you have any questions about the show then feel free to post them here :)

Hi Jason...welcome to the Forum It's usually water ingress on the VAG cars leaking onto the latch microswitch....you need to sort the leak and clean out the electrics. Worth also checking the wiring into the tailgate but I haven't known it to happen on VAG, every other car though, lol Cheers Trevor

Hi Alan...welcome to the Forum I think the LandCruiser is going to be a tough one to follow....especially when it comes to towing capabilities. The Q7 is an awesome car but not entirely sure about how it will cope with towing and I would also imagine there are larger radiators, waterless coolant and extra fans that you could fit. Keep us updated on how your decision goes Cheers Trevor
