    Android Auto confusion

    Hi all, Soon, I'm going to make the plunge and get a A6 Avant Black Edition. I will be planning on keeping it for 5+ years so I want to make sure I future proof it as much as I can. So on my "must have list" is having the "Tech Pack", as the non upgraded screen's resolution is woeful. This...

    Audi servicing price match

    Ridiculous! Got a quote from an independent garage (Audi/VAG specialist) for my 2.0 tdi 2009 full service for £220. Audi agreed to price match if I can provide a quote from them WITH part numbers so they know its like for like! If I ask the garage which part numbers they use they'll know what...

    A3 2.0 TDI temp sensor replacement (fans staying on)

    I had a similar problem, my fan wouldn't cut out even with the engine off! The only way it would stop was to disconnect the battery or the plug on the fan module. Anyway, it happened few times, the first few times were solved by topping up the coolant. The last time I had to replace the whole...

    Headlights on indication on instrument panel

    Hi, Just a quick question. Are you supposed to have a light on your instrument panel to show you've got your headlights on? Hasn't got auto lights or anything (MY09). My other a3 (MY04) has auto lights and it shows a light when the headlights are on. Cheers

    Fuel tank half full - click...

    I find turning the pump through 180 degrees works everytime, so you're doing it sort of upside down. That's in my 2004 2.0 tdi. It'll be interesting when I pick up my 2009 sportback next week, to see if it's still the same!

    Are there any DPF issues on the 2.0 140bhp engine?

    I have no idea, I'm just looking at getting a new A3 as my 53 (8P) seems to developing every fault going lately. I was looking at a Mazda 3 Sport 2.2d but then I read about DPF issues and I thought I'd check to see if other engines suffer. Is it a lottery whether it's PD or CR or is an age...

It was intermittent but now seems to be on all the time since I came back off holiday 2 weeks ago. Seems my power steering rack may need...
