Is it inside the vehicle? Loose dash top trim is well documented

Send a message to Gareth (magnet) on here as he knows a company that can remanufacture subframes

It's worrying there's no air filter. That needs sorting asap. Get the fault codes sorted too. What's the oil consumption like? And any smoke out of the exhaust and if so what colour? When was the car last serviced? Including fuel filter. Are these any boost leaks I wonder? 16mpg would be worse than a S3!

They help keep the car cool in summer as it allows you to leave the window open slightly regardless of it's sunny or raining. If you're a smoker then it reduces the risk of you getting wet when you get rid of the ash from the cigarette.

I think you need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Very odd. Looks like it's giving you all the data of the current MMI version maybe

Any fuel will be fine. But they do say that supermarket fuel isn't as good.

Keep us posted on how you get on

Glad you got sorted

Jack Balsdon: Knocked out a nice little upgrade this morning. The cruise buttons on the indicator stalk weren't working properly so I figured it was time for a new stalk, but wondered if the stalk style from a B5 Passat would work. These have the set/resume buttons as a rocker on the end of the stalk rather than the way the A6s have them which makes it much easier to use IMO. I couldn't find anything online about anyone else trying this but the pins and plugs looked the same between the two stalks on online listings so I tried it. Perfect plug and play, absolutely worth it if you use your cruise a lot and like to use the + and - buttons to modulate your speed. The correct VAG P/N is on the Meyle box in the pictures, cost just over £30.

Getting one from.a similar aged and similar mechanicals as yours would be better.

Or che k inside the front cover of the service book.

Glad you got sorted with the part.

Without sounding daft, can you not use the jacking points?

That mpg is fantastic. Think you'll be saving yourself money in fuel that's for sure.

You're welcome, how are you getting on with your research?

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

That sounds good 😊 were they quoted figures over the phone or have you used their online configurator?
-
Sorry to hear this Tony, but I fully understand your reasoning. You've been a valued member of the club and you're more than welcome to stay despite not having an Audi. All the best Steve

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. Sounds a lovely car, it's nice to have something you can use in the nicer months.

You're welcome glad the guide was useful. I'd recommend a gearbox oil service to see if that solves the gearbox issue. I suspect though it's a megatronics unit failure. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up.
