It could just be me, but I wasn’t aware that this was a just-purchased vehicle, but more a just- serviced ( in ownership) one.
-
Thanks David, not so much a refund, but to arrange with whoever serviced the car to sort the issue out. Can we take it there wasn’t this issue with it before it was serviced? Kind regards, Gareth. p.s. You need to ensure you top up p/ recheck the oil before taking it back.

Andrew:- What sort of additional information? Victoria:- when did you actually buy it, from a dealer or private sale?
-
Under the reservoir Connor.
-
Well, of course, it’s up to you whether you follow the advice given or not Christer
-
Welcome Connor, Why not suspect the level ‘switch’ or its connection if you know it indicates the level is low - when it isn’t?
-
Can you tell us where yours is reading then David.
-
Many thanks for updating us and I too am please on the under-warranty replacement has worked out well for you. Re. the Q8:- what is your washing regime with the vehicle? Kind regards, Gareth.

wanted space saver wheel 16 or 17 inch
Magnet replied to frankval's topic in Audi Parts and Accessories For Sale & Wanted
Welcome Frank, Your best option is to search EBay. Please let us know how you get on. Kind regards, Gareth. -
Welcome Edward, but what do you want the forum to do? Regards, Gareth.

Hello Daniel, Charging the battery to prove it is serviceable is really meaningless. You need to get its efficiency measured over the important parameters, before you can eliminate it as being a contributor to your issue. Kind regards, Gareth.

How to source a clutch kit for Audi A4 B9 1.4 TFSI
Magnet replied to Matthew12106's topic in Audi A4 (B9) Forum
Welcome Mathew, LUK should be able to advise you which stockists - if any - have it in stock, and if out of stock in U.K. and Continent, when it is likely to be back in stock. Does this kit include the dual mass flywheel? In terms of motorfactors, who have you tried? Kind regards, Gareth. -
Any progress with this Alan?

I think the important decision is whether to keep it and spend on it, or part with it, or indeed just park it up and look at it! Obviously, you are the only one who can make that decision - we cannot do that for you. I think I have given you a workable way forward if you do decide to keep it. Please let us know what you decide. Kind regards, Gareth.

Hello Christer. Try entering your registration number into Parts in Motion (Exeter) website. You should then be presented with a choice of brands. I tend to go with Febi. Please let us know how you get on. Kind regards, Gareth. p.s. Just noticed the car is 25 years old. Where have you tried and failed so far?
-
Thanks Alen, As Cliff says, and just let us know if you need advice on how to advertise here, or on the wording. Agree EBay and Autotrader would be a must for coverage. Kind regards, Gareth.
-
Welcome Jack, Further investigation of the mount would be my first port of call. Kind regards, Gareth.
-
Unfortunately Matt, It’s very rare/ does’t happen, that dealers will give you a part number if you are not actually buying the part from them. Exception might be if the part is obsolete.
-
Hello Alan, I would suggest you get the battery efficiency and alternator output checked before renewing the battery - Halfords stores should be able to do that for you. If it does need replacing, your wallet would appreciate you coming back to us before buying any battery - anywhere. Kind regards, Gareth.
-
Um Stephen. Wouldn’t really recommend that since you are then stuck with an immobile car. Regards, Gareth.
-
Thanks Gill, Also try LLL Parts website where you might get an illustration, but it does sound like a DMF and possibly a main dealer part only. Kind regards, Gareth.
-
Sorry to hear of your problems Dai, By all means advertise it on here and include full details and price, but please do not restrict your advertising to this forum. Use Autotrader, EBay etc. etc. and others you can think of as well. Kind regards, Gareth.
-
Try Parts in Motion website for a start. Why do you need the part numbers anyway?
-
Welcome Gill, Just enter your registration number into say Parts in Motion’s website and that should hopefully give you an answer, based on cost and/oravailability. Many DMFs have become main dealer only parts at silly prices.
-
Hello John, Possibly the same reasons why they have extended cambelt changes to ridiculous limits. Chances are the component will expire at some point where the repair costs become more than the value of the vehicle. Vehicle expires, and Audi sell another new car! Kind regards, Gareth.
