Boot wont lock with key, remote or internal door lock
Hello Mark, Possible reason why only 11.13volts at lock - ? High contact resistance - possibly due to cable fracture within flexible harness section twixt body and tailgate. This is always my first place to inspect for any such issues, before renewing anything. Issues usually manifest themselves during cold weather, when cables become less flexible. Regards, Gareth.

Wheel camber after impact/RTA
The on-shaft/in hub speed sensor will surely be part of the whole assembly you show in the photo.

Rounded head wheel studs
So you obviously didn’t take it to a tyre retailer then. Recipe for disaster once you know even one is proving problematic. Since the thread has been resurrected after 4 years, it may be opportune to point out the benefit of slackening and re-torquing all the wheel nuts on a recently acquired vehicle, or if you have just had new tyres fitted.

The hub is there, so the bearing must be there.

Spare/Duplicate locking nut 'key'.
Welcome Ian, If you wander into the Parts Dept. of your local dealership, they should be able to consult the build record, find the code and order a spare one for you. Regards, Gareth.

Welcome Harry, Well we have had some brief posts to date, but I’d put money on it that yours won’t be beaten at anytime! Just walk back to the previous bus stop, have a sit down and compile some suitable words which describe what you have, what it is like and want your goal is. Photos would be good/essential.

Wheel camber after impact/RTA
Thanks Chris, The brake hose is attached to the caliper, which detaches from the strut, so I can’t see you having to detach any hoes. Make sure you take the weight off the caliper not to stress the hose.

New Member, New Car and Oil Problem
This is a bit like pulling sore teeth Andrew. So you do have a handbook in the glove box then? I thought they had done away with them, but they are available to refer to on line. So you have referred to the glove box handbook, but it doesn’t mention anything at all about checking/ topping up engine oil. You learn something every day.

battery replacement
I have no doubt ‘they won’t rip you off’ price wise, but as you now know, there is an Audi price for an O.E. battery to Audi’s specification. Then there is the trusted local garage non-rip- off price, but we aren’t talking just price here, we are talking ‘quality’. It’s sounds like a ‘just leave it to them to choose’ situation, and that’s fine. I’m at a bit of a loss to think why you didn’t just take it to them in the first place, and not be too bothered with seeking advice on here - which has been comprehensive. Regards, Gareth.

This is all rather vague to me Andrew. ‘Knurled part ( I am familiar with that) about 1 to two inches long’. Biffs difference between 1 inch and 2 inches. Have you checked the on- line handbook for clarification?
