Air Con Parts
My advice would be to try ebay.

A1 rear parking sensor module location
I think it's behind the trim in roughly the same location.

Door courtesy logo light
It might be worth speaking to the supplier.

Audi s1 2015
Are you thinking cosmetic or performance? Performance wise a k&n filter or induction kit might not be a bad addition along with a remap.

RSQ8 hud
I'd like to think it would, but my best advice is to ask the dealer who's supplying the car.

Battery charger for stop and go.
Can't say I've ever used one, but I know you can get solar panels that plug into the cigarette lighter to charge the battery.

Q3 tailgate drips
I think this is a common occurrence.

Notchy Steering
You're welcome, glad to hear the battery is in good condition. Worse case scenario it could be a failing steering rack as I think it can cause the steering to become weighted to the left or right on other cars (old fiat puntos for example).

1999 avant 1.8 20v
Now that's a stunning interior. Look after that as it'll be a future classic. As will the the T25 ☺️

1999 avant 1.8 20v
Nice one 👍 sounds a lovely spec, got any pics of it? That's the problem, when owners skimp on maintenance it causes bigger problems later down the line.

new to diesels, is this a normal engine sound?
When does the noise occur? I'e when engine is cold or warm? What's the mileage on the car?

Exactly,if it was anything serious it would be yellow or red. At which point the dealer should be fixing it before sale.

Audi a5 Coupe
Hey How, welcome to the forum. Sorry your message hasn't been responded to. Whst engine gave you got? It's the 2.0 tfsi ones that have the oil consumption issue which is well documented.

Notchy Steering
Has it got electronic power steering? If so then I wonder if a dying battery could be the cause? Failing batteries often throw up odd electrical issues, including with electronic steering. I had a fiat 500l yank the wheel out my hand once because the battery was so low on charge.

Audi A5 Coupe - Looking to Buy
If you're looking at the 2.0 make sure it's had the repair done. Service history is key, should be ideally full. But bare in mind even one with full history can develop the problem. Engine rebuild is not uncommon because of it. Cheers Steve

air filter
K&n or pipercross are probably your best bets, assuming you're not going down the forced induction route. Don't forget you'll have to notify your insurance company as it's classes as a modification unfortunately. Cheers Steve

1999 avant 1.8 20v
I find it's all in the service history, and a well maintained old Audi will be more reliable. Sorry to hear of issues with the a2. They're going to be a future classic for sure. There's a very strong, knowledgeable and friendly a2 club which might be worth joining (not that I'm trying to get rid of them you, I just want you to be able to get the best advice). We do t ge t many a2 owners on here to be honest.

No probs Chad, glad I could help. To scroll through the messages you need to use the steering wheel buttons. Once you've found the messages tab you'll need to press ok (or similar) on the steering wheel to open the messages. If it's white it's nothing too serious, maybe tyre pressure monitoring system needs resetting or pressures checking for example.

ABS Module failure/ Traction light on
Have you done a diagnostic check to confirm it's the module? I ask as the abs sensors are often the likely culprit or the wiring to one of the sensors has corroded/snapped. It's worth checking as a sensor replacement or wiring repair will be cheaper than replacing the module. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch ☺️ Here's a picture of Audi warning lights. Also the link shows the light I think you're referring too which states: least one check control message is displayed or stored. The symbol is shown on the display of the instrument cluster. you should be able to scroll through the computer and the message will appear. Being white it shouldn't be anything serious. https://www.jardinemotors.co.uk/audi/servicing-and-parts/warning-lights/ cheers Steve
