This can be done however you need to get the vehicle remapped. The modern ecus pull data from the dpf and egr for the running of the engine. So if you remove them without doing a remap the engine light will come on. I believe in the older engines such as the 1.9 the system was vacuum operated so it was a lot easier to trick the ecu unlike the new stuff which is all electronic and sensor controlled if that makes sense. Cheers steve

Oh you are a traitor! I just hope it's the v8 ;) it sounds lovely in the advert :)

Not bad mileage so should be in good condition :) yep, your best bet is getting it remapped. That way you wipe the emissions software update off the ecu and you gain more power ;)

Your welcome :)

Welcome to the forum Logan :) as you rightly point out the steering assist could be because the battery has run flat. However the recall can also make the engine rougher from other members experiences. If you have a look under the recalls section you'll get a wide range of knowledge there. I'm assuming it's a 2 litre model? And is it manual or auto? As with any car really check the service history and ideally it should be full. What's the mileage on it? The reason why I ask is because is the cambelt/water pump due for replacement or has it been done? and how does the clutch feel (if it's manual)? It shouldn't feel heavy in my opinion. Also check for any whistles from the turbo as this can be a sign the turbo is on its way out. Or it could just be the turbo pipes leaking but well worth checking. Also ask the seller if he would allow an AA or RAC inspection to be carried out. If he is reluctant or refuses then you have to ask why? In that case I would walk away. I hope iv helped chers steve

Hope iv helped :) cheers steve

Or general wheels:

Or chromed wheels:

Or bbs wheels:

Hmm the possibilities are endless! There are borbet wheels:

Your most welcome :) in my opinion if it is bearing or anything wheel related I'd get it looked at sooner rather than later. It's better to sort it now then have to fix anything worse later on if that makes sense. The car should last 400 miles but is it worth the risk? Hope iv helped cheers steve

Hmm, I'm unsure to be honest. But what ever you do don't leave it loose (sorry if that sounds like I'm telling you how to suck eggs). Iv also moved this topic to the Audi TT section to make it easier for other members :) cheers steve

Welcome to the forum Simon :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) mid havebto agree with you and say it's bearing related. What's the mileage of the vehicle? Cheers steve

Welcome to the forum Cam :) youll find the members on here are a friendly bunch and will help you where they can :) most stainless steel exhausts can be tweaked to your preference on how loud it is and the noise it makes. Companies such as power flow exhausts can cost around £350ish :) by the way iv hidden one of your topics as it was duplicated. I feel the one in the a4 section will get more views :) hope iv helped cheers steve

That's fantastic news! :) it means you can enjoy the summer properly now :)
