Hi there, I'm after new shocks and springs for my above car. I was going to go for the Bilstein B12 setup you have, but I don't really want it to be much lower (if at all). Any advice on either; 1) how much it'd lower it from it's current s-line height based on experience 2) any other...

Hi all, I thought i'd create a thread for my latest car. I've been an Audi owner for the last 7 years, with a B6, and then 3 years ago I bought a 1.8TQS, also, as my toy car. Typically I prefer older cars, and I was never a fan of the B7 shape, although it's growing on me I must admit! The B6...

I've got another abs light on my car :( Last year I lost all comms with the abs module via vcds so had it repaired and all was peachy. I've now got an abs light (yellow abs light and red warning icon on dis) A vcds scan tells me its "ABS valves supply voltage" code 01200. Ive googled it...

Hi. My right rear caliper is sticking and braking is getting horrendous. I'm considering purchasing an old set of rear calipers and getting them refurbed so that I can just swap them over when they are done rather than be without the car for a few days/ weeks. Looking on eBay I think there...

My exhaust Heat Shield (I assume). How important is it to get it back on ASAP? It looks worse for wear, and like i'll need a new one, the mounting holes have all disappeared. I only knew about it as I could hear a vibrating noise so stopped and looked underneath. I've ripped it out for now so I...

Hi everybody, I've looked on vagcat, but with no luck, so asking for help please! At the weekend I removed my standard shocks and lowering springs to replace it with OEM sport suspension (the wife was moaning it was too low). Anyway, we lost one of the big washers that fasten the front strut...

Hi all, I recently had to work my magic in the plenum chamber area as there was a bit of corrosion. That's all done now, and hopefully I've caught it early enough. Anyway, I had to remove the scuttle panel in order to get the battery out. All the plastic screws holding it in have previously...

I thought I'd start a thread for my newly acquired a4. I've been a member for a good few years now on here with my 1.9tdi (b6) avant, but over the last year I've been growing fonder of the b5 platform. Here's my b6, it's now the family workhorse. It may even have to get raised as the wife...

So today I went to test drive a 1.8tqs, I've not driven one before and since I'm considering buying one I thought it best to give one a go. First, it felt a little numb. I have a 1.9tdi b6, but the 1.8t felt slower. Maybe I wasn't giving it enough beans? Next was some knocking from the front...

Red b6 avant, 1.9tdi quattro, over near rodley/ horsforth side of leeds on sunday. I drove fast to catch you up as I liked your car :friends: It looked very nice in red. Think they were rs4 wheels too, in black.

I cleaned my turbo yesterday with the Mr muscle method, and also cleaned the EGR valve and intake manifold. All works fine, not really a huge difference noticed, if any but it was more preventative rather than anything else. However, I noticed a load of oil on the rear most part of the intake...

Hello All, Off the back of Chez’s very successful thread about the Mods I am making another one: A pics of the Mods thread. Basque in the glory that for the moment people aren’t moaning at you or slagging you off. 1 Rule: It’s got to be from 2013, not from 5 years ago when you weren’t...

Seen as the 'awesome' threads are flowing, lets open up round two of them. ScottB5; He's great! He's provided me with tonnes of knowledge, and is always there when I need him. I love you ScottB5.

So I have wanted aero wipers for ages, and it's one of the few mods the wife agrees with as the standard wipers were bobbins, even with new genuine Audi wiper blades they still sucked. So I saw that a user on here (Sam) was selling some so took the opportunity :) Heres a before and after pic...

BBC News - US Congressman Weiner admits 'inappropriate' Twitter photo In fact, he is Weiner, and wanted to prove it to everyone. FAIL.

Hello all, I pulled down my sun visor yesterday as we had about 2 minutes of dazzling sun. Anyway, the hinge snapped off so I need a new one now. :( Does anyone know if it's possible to buy just the hinge bracket, or is it a full new sun visor needed? And any help on part numbers? Second, you...

A few weeks back our computers at uni/ work were hit with an attempted hack through computers with remote desktop enabled. Anyway, long story short, mine was attempted to be hacked so the clever IT people here have re-imaged my desktop machine. However, I am now no longer an administrator, so...

BBC News - Barack Obama's car, nicknamed 'The Beast', gets stuck So I know it's not a YouTube clip, but it is a video. This cracks me up every time i watch it. I love the clang of metal as it just grinds to a halt. I also love how they deny it was him. Americans eh?!

This is astounding.

The part I'm on about is the little mud flap bit in front of the wheel. The reason I ask is because the offside doesn't have it, but the nearside does. Does anyone know if you can buy them individually, or even a part number? I like the look of it, so fancy getting the other to match. Thanks
