  1. I know but the cables are £30 and you still need access to the box, so I might as well remove it and let someone else update it for £10 on the bay B) I did search for a guide to remove the head unit but couldn't find one - perhaps I will extend my search to Google.
  2. I've took advantage of the Halfords 3 for 2 and bought the Meguiar's 3 step kit but the polish does leave a lot of white dust. I've just ordered some Glaze #7 and Ultimate Wax so I'll see how it goes :)
  3. Yeah sorry, parking sensors with audio only i.e. I'm not interested in a screen/any kind of visual aid. I think with some patience I could install them - how much would you suggest I spend on a kit?
  4. Thanks for the links. Do you have any experience with these guys?
  5. It's starting to bug me that my drivers side wing mirror if different from the passengers side so I'm looking for a drivers side replacement to match the one in the attached photo. I'm not sure why they are different - I remember the same thing with a new Polo my wife bought (drivers side being bigger) but the sales person said it was normal, and my wife wasn't bothered so we just accepted it. Travelling isn't an issue but it would be great to know of a reliable online supplier or someone in my area :)
  6. I've recently bought an Audi A4 (B8) and it has a Parrot CK3000 kit fitted but it needs updating so that I can use it. There are a few people offering to update them at a reasonable price on a well known auction site but it would mean pulling my dash apart to find the blue box, but I'm not entirely sure I want/how easy it is to do this if there is an alternative way of updating via Bluetooth or something?
  7. I've been considering using a clay bar and doing the whole, paint cleaner, polish and wax treatment. I only have experience with Autoglym and Meguiar's products which aren't especially difficult to use, although the Meguier's polish doesn't give you much time to buff it off before it dries to the paintwork! I guess I'm looking for something that is easy to use and will maintain the mirror-like shine ..............
  8. It has just become apparent my wife is likely to trash the rear end of my car due to it being considerably longer than her car, and a lack of parking sensors. I have done a quick search online and have found one or two companies in my areas offering to fit an audio system for £150 all in. Is there anything I should avoid with this modification?
  9. Does anyone have experience with the Audi dealerships in Cambridge, Peterborough and Huntingdon, or can recommend a specialist in these areas?
  10. Hi all, A quick intro about me and my Audi/car owner experience. I currently live in Cambridgeshire and work as a mechanical design engineer for a company who sell scientific/deposition equipment to high tech component manufacturers for electronic applications. My first Audi back in 2005 was the last model of the A3 TDI first gen which was about 3 years old when I bought it, but I quickly exchanged it for a Golf GT TDI because it just didn't stimulate me enough :( After owning the VW for a few years I bought a Mercedes C Class Coupe Panoramic 2.2 TDI which had been a solid and reliable car for 7 years, but I have recently parted with it after 196k miles. I now own an A4 B8 2.0 TDI S-Line. I drive ~20k/year so I have gone for something that (I hope) gives a balance between economy and performance - so far I am extremely happy with every aspect of it anyway. There are a few questions I have regarding servicing and the like so I will have a look to see if my questions have been answered already.
