Favourite Performance Audi ?
Your right about the q7! I tell you now by my reconing the money I'm spending on both my a6 and my Ford escort I could easily run an a8 instead! Man a3 with a w12 now that would be something. You'd have to cut the engine bay and body to pieces though!

Air filter upgrade
Hey Raza, any form of forced induction is good as more air is getting to the engine quicker. However the colder the air, the better it is for the engine. I would suspect without using the hose your going to make the air going into your engine hotter than what it currently does with the standard system which isn't a good thing. Hope iv heked cheers steve

Favourite Performance Audi ?
lol I know that feeling! To be fair though I set my sights slightly lower at an a8 D3 w12 (like the one in the Transporter films) but they're had to find in the right spec/colour and low miles!

Just wanted to ask about Cam Belt
Sorry for stressing you. What's the service history on the a4? Is it full? As I suspect it will have already been done :) dont worry, you can't help it, it's not something people think about as buying a car is stressful enough and there's often a lot already running around inside your head.

Grille surround removal?

Just wanted to ask about Cam Belt
Hey Karen, I would say that at 104,000 miles it should have been done by now and as Piotr said the cambelt s are normally changed around every 5 years but it can be between 5-7 depending on the engine, vehicle age and mileage. Usually they are changed around 50k-80k. Again this depends on the engine. If it's not been done then you'll want a discount as this will cost you around £400-£500. If it has been done then the dealer should have proof of this. Hope iv helped :) cheers steve

Grille surround removal?
Hey Rob welcome to the forum :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) i know to remove the grill is a huge pain but luckily the surround should just unclip. You'd be better taking it off to strip it as you run the risk of over spill onto the bumper! Iv attached an image I came across on another site that shows you how it clips in. As well as a PDF walk through to take the bumper off to take the whole grill off, if that's what you choose to do :) as can be seen it is from a motorsport company. Hope iv helped :) Also What car are you changing to? cheers steve

A3 8P Option fitted rear parking sensor location
Hi Andy, welcome to the forum :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) i think the module is in the boot on the left hand side. You'll have to take the boot side trim off. This is also the same for the a4 and a6 c5. I also believe there are 2 different types of module. One that is just for rear sensors and one that is for front and rear sensors. Unsure on how easy it is to replace though. Iv also attached a couple of images from google as to the boot side and what the part should look like. Dont go off the part number on the image though as I think the part changed slightly from 2008 on but don't quote me. Just what I'm reading on eBay listings. Hope iv helped :) cheers steve

Gaming!
I have to say COD ghosts is a mint game! But so was black ops 1 and 2. With tegards to GTA, I preferred GTA 4 over gta5. I think the car crashes are better and using the phone for cheats is far easier :) having said that I do still play a ps2 with GTA San Andreas and put the cheats in manually lol. In terms of racing games I do like gran Trismo 4 on the ps2 :) as you probs can tell I do like the retro games lol

Audis on the big screen
The answer is the Transporter! This allroad was used 3 times in the first film during the chase scene. You can see it twice before the blue Peugeot chases the BMW and then during that chase. This chase scene is the part when these 2 cars are beside the sea and the allroad is on the very same road. 1:15, allroad at traffic lights when 2 police cars collide 1:34, allroad is about to turn across into the path of the BMW before stopping. 1:57 allroad is overtaken by the BMW heres the link... how sad am I lol
