Steve Q

Graham and I have arrived at the m4 east reading services 🙂

Welcome to the forum Frank, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 sorry to hear of your problem, are you sure you don't have any consumer rights? with regard to turbos my advice would be to either get a genuine new one or a genuine reconditioned one as the aftermarket turbos can be hit or miss. Also make sure what ever turbo you buy comes with a decent warranty. You'll be looking at around £900 for the job. This is what it cost on my sisters mk4 golf. cheers Steve

My advice would be to try local breakers but make sure you check the breaker cars service history. Cheers Steve

You're welcome 🙂 will be great to see you there! 🙂

Bonnet will be the same the only thing you've got to make sure is getting one that's either pre or post facelift however the breaker will know this 🙂 cheers Steve

I'm still going and leaving home at 5:30 to get to the services for 7:30! My a6 is clean and ready to go.

Sums

Yep, I'll add you both 🙂

Hi Benny, the s tronic is a lovely gearbox and you're correct in saying it's linked to the dsg. It's the sister gearbox. It'll be a nice car 🙂 cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 when you say local driving do you mean short journeys/town driving? If so then I suspect this could be contributing to your poor mpg. cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Daniel, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 good amount of miles on your a4 🙂 best way to prolong the life of the car is following the service schedule with regular oil changes. That's all my a6 has had and it's on 329k on the original engine and gearbox which have never been rebuilt. cheers Steve

As it says, the club has got it's 5 minutes of Fame in the current issue of Performance Audi magazine!🙂

Welcome to the forum Mike, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 glad you're pleased with your q5 cheers Steve

That's up to you. But yes you could end up with a whole there. You could try and take it off to see where the wire goes. If it is going to leave a while then you can refit it. Cheers Steve

You're most welcome, and sorry for a delayed reply. The codes should be in your handbook at the front I believe. In failing that getting the code from Audi is a likely option. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Benny, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 the a6 ultra is a lovely car and you won't be disappointed 🙂 it should come with the 5 spoke rota wheels and I've found the standard sound system more than adequate when I've driven one. It's hard to tell if it's the facelift model without knowing when it was built. The drive will all depend on what engine and gearbox is fitted. Do you know? cheers Steve

Have you had a diagnostic check carried out to see what fault codes flag up? Might be worth doing Cheers Steve

It doesn't look a 10 year old car to be honest! It does look.like it's been looked after 🙂 cheers Steve

Good link there Mark. 🙂 It depends which TTwheels you're intending to fit and what size. Cheers Steve

I don't believe it'll work with a modern phone I'm affraid. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Chris, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 lovely looking s3 you have there! cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum John, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Is your q5 still under warranty? If so I'd be getting it booked in for Audi to take a look. cheers Steve

It certainly is and youre doing the right thing. I find Google maps more accurate anyway

Welcome to the forum Ash, sorry this topic has been missed. Unfortunately you'll have to go to Audi to set up the satnav. I believe they plug the car to a computer that directly connects to Audi in Germany for it to be activated. They'll charge you upto £500 for the privilege. Cheers Steve
