Hi I had my 2013 Audi A3 1.6TDI remapped from 105hp to 135hp about 9 months ago, never had any problems been fantastic. But recently when accelerating hard the engine will pretty much go into limp mode and the coil shaped light starts flashing? As soon as I pull over turn the engine on and back off the light goes and the car works perfectly. It has always started first time. When scanning with the Carista OBd scanner 6 Faults detected - I get Heater & Air conditioning - 262914 Central Electronics - 262934, 266756, 267030, 787211, 787465 Could it just be as simple as replacing the glow plugs or would they not affect the car when accelerating? Thanks any advice is useful

Any advice or tips? Looking to buy a first gen Audi R8.
Super23.co.uk posted a topic in Audi R8 Club
Hello, As the title suggests I have been considering buying a R8. You can get a lot of car for the money but still I wonder what would be better V8 or V10 then running costs, potential bugbears and generally how they are to live with? Any advice or tips would be most welcome. Thanks! -
So my car has been of the road now for so long! Nearly a year. All because the transfer box has broke (literally got a hole in it, can’t be fixed) now from what I’ve learnt, they don’t make the transfer box anymore (discontinued). Now this is the second time this has happened, and I’m not sure why! So the first time it happened, I got sent a part, by a Audi specific breakers, they confirmed it was the right one... now I’m thinking, maybe it wasn’t!? And I’ve tried and tried to find out the correct part number for the transfer box that should be in my car, but no luck. Does anyone know? It’s a Audi A3 3.2 v6 8p 2004, someone must use be able to help! Thank you

Hello Everyone, I am looking to buy an Audi Q2, but I would appreciate if I could try it for a day or two before I buy it. Any suggestions? Where can I hire an Audi q2 for a day or two? Or anyone who owns an Audi Q2 would be interested in renting it to me for a day or two in London? I could offer 200 pounds per day. If you are interested, please email me: pku.english@hotmail.com. Thank you. Susan

Hi all quick introduction by me. Bought myself a Q7 2007 3.0 TDI back in September 2017. Top spec, every extra. It’s running around 140k now and I !Removed! love the bus! As do the kids and mrs. I carry out most of the maintenance myself. I’m a chartered engineer and I’m a massive car enthusiast, completed the majority of my own issues since I was a young teen. My previous car was a 535d and although I do miss the raw power, the q7 is my baby now and I will run it for many many years. Fingers crossed I’ve had a couple of problems with it. Passenger wiper arm snapped on a rainy winters day. Headlamp bulbs blew (gosh they were pricey). Going through 21” tyres like no tomorrow and just changes pads and discs all round. So no problems I suppose. Just general upkeep. However, I’ve just got a low oil pressure alarm. I’ve read some horror stories and current situation is...I’ve ordeted a new oil pressure switch/sensor. (Can anyone shed any light on its location on the car?) I hope it’s just a quick sensor change and I’m good. I have an oil change booked in too for next week. I have read horror stories about the oil pump though? Anyone shed any light on this?

2001 Audi A4 B6 3.0 petrol quattro. For a while now my car has been misfiring, loss of power and stuttering... A mechanic checked the timing and it was fine (done the timing belt only 2 years ago), I've replaced the coil packs and spark plugs but still getting these engine error codes.. Anyone know what the cause of all these codes? (P0345, P0346, P0365, P0011, P0014, P0021, P0300) Thank you

Hi, everyone! XEONZ doesn't sell A5 grills with a badge anymore, so I'm looking for a holder of some sort that I could fit onto my grill... I would really love to have my rings back! Maybe someone is going badge less and won't need that holder? Let me know! Thanks

Hi guys, first post on here so very much a newbie. I currently have a facelift 2017 Audi S3 with around 4,000 miles on it. I’ve noticed recently that when I put my foot down in sport dynamic, the engine loses power for a second or so causing me to slight jolt forward and then it will accelerate normally. Also when accelerating from a Low gear through the gears in sport mode, agh gear change ‘jerks’ into the next gear. Any ideas? Thanks in advance! Cheers Jack

Hello, I have 3.0tdi BKN Manual A4. When its all warmed up fully and i go and stop it, and wait say 10 minutes and start it again it will do half a crank over and then kinda sticks then speeds up again. It goes with a clunk when it does it, almost seems like it hydrolocks itself. Could it be a leaking injector and then fills up the bore? It never does it when its cold tho but it takes a while to build fuel presure if left over night.

Never a dull moment with this car, new minor I hope issue. Every now and again randomly it makes a short low 2-3 second sound weird errrr noise only on cold start up? Should I be worried or just minor I can ignore? I recall my golf mk4 starter motor for years made a loud horrible sweek on start up but I could not be bothered to spend the money to replace as it did not effect driving the Car.

Hey guys, I've been looking for a honeycomb style grille for my 2007 A3 8P Sportback and I was wondering if the one I found on eBay fits mine. It's listed for the 2009-2013 models and I just want to know if anyone knows if it fits the older models such as my 2007. https://www.ebay.com/itm/RS-Style-Mesh-Front-Hood-Grille-Glossy-Black-With-PDC-Hole-For-Audi-A3-S3-8P/272687447578?hash=item3f7d703e1a:g:854AAOSwX61ZJ5mB&vxp=mtr

Hi guys,Just wanted to share my experience with Dr Colourchip paint kits.I recently had a complete idiot ding my A5's door in a supermarket carpark - Although their was no damage to the body work the paint had been chipped and scuffed. I had heard from a friend of mine at Chipsaway that for anything like that he would use Dr colourchip paint restoration kits. Although sceptical I thought I would try out a Standard repair kit as suggested.Wow. Was it good. I have never done any paint work touching up before, but this was so simple to use! You just have to dab it onto the chips the kind of just smear it in and rub it smooth for a clean finish.I would highly recommend it! You just have to go on their website, select your Audi's make and year - then it will show up EVERY colour code! My friend also has given me his discount code, which is CHIPS15 - this will get you 15% off EVERYTHING online! Go take a look - https://www.drcolourchip.co.uk they deliver to the UK and all over europe too.

Mannnnnn my head got spun hard I called Audi Harold wood told him I need a minor service as Audi Chingford said major, minor, minor. He tell me he's been working for Audi for years and that's wrong! Major, minor, major is what Audi recommends he said uve been told wrong. I said ok give me a major Chingford told me spark plugs are separate from service he said no that's wrongs spark plugs included in full service price of £329. He even put in a little jab we much better then Chingford. Who telling me correct Chingford or Harold wood? Is it as Chingford said major, minor, minor, major. Or harold wood major, minor, major?
