Hi John.....welcome to the Club

Would be interesting to see how you compare the Audi against the Merc

Hi Michael.....welcome to the Club

Enjoy the A5, good to have you onboard!

Hammer

Sounds like the airbags or pipework has a slight leak.
Spray a leak detector (soapy water) around everywhere and see if bubbles emanate from the leak

Count me in for this one.

It will be great to get to as many car events this year Tony.
 

Hi.....welcome to the Forum

Your dealer should be able to activate the nav system (for a cost) as it is just a software download and activation.
Try contacting another dealer if your one isn't obliging.

indeed - but initial look through this forum shows plenty of listed problems, however little apparent interest shown

Is there a section on 3.0 tdi potential flaws / mapping?

I know, it looks bad, although the forums get plenty of views its just the participation that is lacking at the moment.

Did a quick search (within the forum search bar) for 3.0TDI problems and mapping....hopefully some useful info in amongst them

do queries get resolved on this forum?

Unfortunately, not all members posting in the forums ever return with a solution to the fault.
Also, it's always good if other members who have experienced the same issues can respond to add their input or even to discuss the problem in order to find a solution.

So, who's up for the first Audi show of the year?

Uniform

Surely it should be the other way round....does it change to heavier or lighter as you go quicker?

Hi.....welcome to the Club

Welcome also to the wonderful world of Audi

Enjoy!

Hi.....welcome to the Club

Plenty of info on here to find out how to carry out most maintenance tasks

Good to have you onboard

Hi.....welcome to the Club

The 4.2 TDi will really need to stretch its legs so i would question if you are able to give a good run on a regular basis otherwise this can result in huge issues with DPF, EGR and anything else that could clog up with carbon, etc?

Good to have you onboard and good luck with your search
