A6 re map
Hi Den, you should find that your mpg should improve as the remap will improve the efficiency of the engine. Your best bet is speaking to a company who specialises in remaps. As the Tuner should tailor the map to the car. Each car is different due to age, mileage and driving style and as such the map needs tailoring as such. Also make sure that your car is well maintained as any issues could be accelerated due to the potential extra stress pit on the components from increasing the power. Cheers steve

Air conditioning
Welcome to the forum Dan :) You'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) it should say in your service history when your Ac was last serviced. It should be every two years. From the sounds of it yours is probably due for a service. Cheers steve :)

Just a quick hello
I believe the cambelt change should be every 135,000 miles or 5 years. Which ever comes first. Id check the history as it should have already been done. If it's not I'd be asking for money off! ;)

Just a quick hello
Your a5 looks lovely :) as I say if the satnav works why bother to update it? In terms of the cambelt it also depends on the age of the a5 as well as the mileage. Normally which ever comes first. When was it registered? And what engine has it got? Cheers steve

Your welcome. Glad I could help :)

Just a quick hello
Welcome to the forum Jody! :) bet your looking forward to collecting your a5! :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) you would be correct a new disc is around £300 from Audi. Unsure about the discs on eBay though. The question I would ask, if the satnav works how crucial is it that you have the most up to date sat nav? If your not bothered and the sat bav works then do you need to update it? Cheers steve

Audis on the big screen
Any guesses?

Wind deflector
I would say the older version would not fit as your model of a3 convertible is bigger and has a bigger boot than the previous model. This will obviously affect the lines of the roof etc. If you see what I mean?

My next car
Welcome to the forum :) Good choice on next car by the way. The a8 is a lovely car! i suspect it will be standard on the a8L w12 or s8 but unsure on the other models. To be honest I'm surprised it isn't standard on the a8 anyway. Also if the acc does go wrong it can be very expensive to fix. The camera can also get dislodged by debris and at which point the car will need a 4 wheel alignment and camera recalibration which is a big job due to the complexity of the camera. Cheers steve

S6 brakes
Thanks for your reply Dan :) i guess il have to start to do some measuring! :) and yea I knew I would need to change the pads just didn't know if they'd fit in the original calipers. The a6 wheels are always shod in Bridgestones as that's what my dad has always used and recommended. He tried others but found the bridgestones to be the best on the a6. Like you, I see it pointless buying rubbish tyres. They wear out quicker plus the fact they effect handling and braking. Most people forget The tyres are the only thing keeping you on the road. Thanks again :)
