Would love to but I'm in Scotland!  Any up here?

Hi Chris, 

I'm not sure of any Audi events in Scotland currently. Are you aware of any? 

If so we would be more than happy to rally support and attend the event :) 

i do know we have other members who live in Scotland. 

Would you be interested in displaying your Audi at VAG Tuner or Audis in the park? 

Thanks for your interest! :)

cheers 

Steve

Welcome to the forum Jonny :) 

sorry to hear your predicament. I'm assuming you have the 2.0tdi? 

If so, my dad has the 2.0tdi Vw Passat (66 plate) and he is getting into the high 40s low 50s with mpg but he has the car computer set to the eco mode. 

he was getting those figures pretty much straight away. To put your mpg into comparison my 2002 a6 2.5tdi is getting in the mid 30s for mpg. 

I would deffo get Audi to have a look and plug the car into a diagnostic machine 

cheers

Just had a recall for my Honda CRV for potential exploding Airbags...at least I get them done for free I suppose.

This fault has affected a range of cars worldwide, made by one company and fitted to loads of cars...all defective!  Going to cost millions to sort I would imagine

I think Toyota are caught up in that aren't  they? As well as some of the German manufactures. I don't think the VAG group are affected however :) 

not surprised your excited! You'll be getting a very nice car! :) 

I'm planning too! :D

Welcome to the forum! One of the best Audi colours in my opinion and lovely spec :) 

just letting you know that we have club stands at some of the up and coming shows. You would be more than welcome to display your a6 under the Audi Owners club banner :) 

cheers 

Steve

That's a lovely old Ford you have there Steve...only ever going up in value as well...nice!

Thanks Trevor, I love this car :) it's been a big part of my life and it's being used as my transport for my best man and I to my wedding! :)

Great stuff! :) you'll certainly have peace of mind having the service, cambelt and water pump replaced :)

Thanks Steve...that would be really helpful.

If we can get enough numbers then we can get onto the organisers to arrange a stand area for at least 10+ cars

Cheers,  Trevor

Your welcome Trevor :) il see if I can rally support :) 

As you all know I drive an Audi A6 as my daily. However I do have another car which is a 1993 Ford escort which I have had since I was 16 and was my first car. I love this car and its personality and it's deffo part of the family :) 

Nice to see you've got some good/subtle plans :) 

don't know whether you've seen the info on the Audis in the park event which is happening on Sunday 13th august at Deenes park in Corby, Northamptonshire. Just wondering if you'd be interested in displaying your a6 at the event? 

We have 3 members so far but need 12 for the display. 

Cheers 

Steve

Welcome to the forum Dave :) 

lovely looking q7 you have their! :)

Hello Derek welcome to the forum :) 

Inwould imagine (but don't quote me) that a tracker would have to be fitted by a professional so in order to be valid for the insurance company. 

Also with regard to reverse cameras, many companies offer them such as kenwood and pioneer. I think it will also depend on what size screen you want and where it will fit on the dash. 

It also depends on how much you want to spend. I mean for example you can get a rear view mirror monitor from Halfords for £60. 

Hope that helps 

cheers

we are currently looking for people to display their car at audis in the park on Sunday 13th August at Deenes park in Corby Northamptonshire.  We have 3 members displaying their cars so far, is it something you'd be interested in doing? 

Cheers

Well it's down the roadblocks from me and it's near my birthday do it would be rude not to go! :) if you'd like a hand organising any of the events etc then just give me shout :) like to help where I can :) 

No worries mate :) glad I could help in some way :) 

Your best bet would be to speak to power flow as they've done previous work on your car :) 

like I say part of the sound comes from the baffles in the exhaust and they can be adapted/adjusted to your taste :) 

Just seeing who, if any of you guys and gals are going to VAG Tuner Live on the 16th July @ Donington Park?
