Steve Q

Your welcome Gareth :) Oops! you have a very good point, I should have put it in the recall action in the first place! ;) i believe it is the onus on the new owner to sort it cheers steve

Hi Mick, welcome to the forum :) youll find the members on here are a friendly bunch :) dont hesitate to ask questions :) cheers Steve

Great advice Trevor. Highly informative! Thanks :)

Hi Thibault, I had a similar problem with my a6. I had to unlock it via the drivers door and again if I did not do it fast enough the alarm would go off. The car ended up going to an auto electrician and the drivers door lock mechanism had to be replaced. It cost me £120. I deffo think it has nothing to do with your key as the symptoms are the same as mine and I did not have the keys replaced or re-coded. (or they weren't re-coded to the best of my knowledge when it went in for repair). Hope iv helped. Cheers Steve

So glad it was useful and glad the console is realigned :) Those Haynes manuals are great! Cheers Steve

Just thought I would post some links to recent motoring press articles with regard to the emissions recall. Various issues are occurring to vehicles after the update has been completed. Info on the recall https://www.whatcar.com/news/volkswagen-delays-emissions-fixes/ https://www.whatcar.com/news/volkswagen-emissions-need-know/ Recall causing breakdowns http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/volkswagen/92893/vw-emissions-scandal-recalls-compensation-is-your-car-affected-latest-news https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/volkswagen-denies-its-dieselgate-fix-causes-breakdowns Vw Tiguans loosing power https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/volkswagen-emissions-scandal/8-reports-of-volkswagen-tiguans-losing-power-after-ea189-emissions-fix/ Engines loosing fuel economy https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/autocar-test-shows-worse-economy-after-volkswagen-diesel-fix https://www.carthrottle.com/post/volkswagens-diesel-emissions-fix-lowers-fuel-economy-claims-real-world-test/ If you have an affected vehicle then in my opinion I would not have the emissions recall done. Especially if your car is remapped or modified. Also a lot of cars that go in for recalls are being flagged up with egr/egr cooler issues which have to be fixed before the recall can be carried out. This can cost over £1000 to fix! I speak from experience as I worked as a service adviser at Volkswagen. Also the recall/update is NOT a legal requirement and does not effect your vehicle tax. I hope this is useful for some of you :) Cheers steve

That's a good find! :) once you've worked out the site

The brm was a cracking car. Allegedly better than the mg zr! And that red quilted leather was gorgeous! Along with the green paint and orange grill! And finished off with nice wheels! Great car!

No worries Nicky :) and we all sure do enjoy our Audis! :) even though I did get a puncture this morning and was cursing the car a little lol

Ah yes, that cracking scene!

Your welcome :)

Yep! It sure is! :) would be great to have you on board Ross :) would you like to display your s3 at the event with us? nice one Dan :) and that shouldn't be a problem:)

And Volvo used an estate version in touring cars if I remember correctly

Looks gorgeous! Hope she was worth the wait! :) just letting you know that your more than welcome to display your Audi at the upcoming events. The nearest one to you is vag Tuner Live at donington park on Sunday 16th July. Have a look at the events section and let me know if you'd be interested :)

Oh yes I remember them! Was yours an estate or saloon? Yellow was the best colour by far!

My grandad had a 1984 Volvo 760gle turbo diesel which he bought new. It has covered 230,000 miles before being laid up on my uncles farm. In approx 2003/2004 I found it in a field and When I went back to see it some months later it had gone and my uncle had got rid of it. I regret not saving it as it was the only tangible item of my grandads who died before I was born. It was nothing special but meant a lot to me as i remember the car as a child. Sorry for the sob story lol
