What year is the Western Europe disc? if its a 2009 or 2010 then the unit may not read an older disc, I am not completely sure about this but seem to remember reading it somewhere, something to do with a firmware update. Also doesnt the Western Europe disc cover the UK?

Sorry everyone I sold my lovely B6 S4 because I had too see - http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/showthread.php?t=102403 bought what I thought was a decent dealership A4 Avant 2.0T FSI s-line SE avant today but when I got it home it sounds like a bag of $hite and nobody on the B7 forum seems to be...

Thanks for the advice, that is the strange thing the performance is not affected at all in fact it seems really eager to want to rev but obviously I am taking it easy. I am in Liverpool if anyone can help, I wont do any more than 75 miles between now and Monday may just carry on very easy

Yesterday the engine managmeent light came on, engine is running fine, sounds great, oil levels ok, water temperature fine, in fact if anything the engine feels more responsive than it has in a long time, I am figuring its a sensor or something gone AWOL. Its due in for a service next Monday...

Glad you got it back, did they say anything about the rattle? Hope you have a good weekend with it, enjoy!!

You have really been through the mill with this just hope once you have it all sorted it doesnt stop you enjoying the car. When I bought mine I had similar issues after owning for just 4 days and was without the car first for a week then for 6 weeks so know what you have gone through. Mine has...

Didnt work earliest date is the 24th so to be fair to them looks like they were telling the truth, unless of course its a blanket fib just in case anyone tried this trick but now its like some form of conspiracy theory / paranoia thing :)

Good idea GF is doing it tomorrow we have a whole plan laid out :icon_thumright:

Had a free MOT booked on Monday at Warrington Audi, rang me up yesterday to say that some part of their MOT testing equipment is broken and they had to cancel all MOT's. Somehow I dont believe them its more likely they have a rush of work on and 'free stuff' just doesnt cut it does it! Anyone...

Cam tensioners can be difficult to inspect as they dont always rattle on start up especially if the engine is warm and has been running recently. You generally get a fairly loud rattle for just a few seconds on starting. If the owner is letting you dirve it fairly aggresively then any problems...

Hi, If you search through the forum you will find lots of threads on this, it seems to be a common problem and involves cam chain tensioners momentarily sticking until pumped up hydraulically. General advice is to take it off long life oil changes and move to a more frequent oil change. Did...

Thanks a lot thought, I had found the problem then. I have tried two sets of pads with 2 different manufacturers and replaced the the front disc's, its been through 2 MOT's without any problems so dont think its a bush, one of the mechanics told me its the coils spring moving in its seating but...

Hi Guys Since I bought my car I have had an occasional knock form the front nearside wheel area under heavy braking, I have had the car looked at a few times but told it was nothing to worry about Today whilst fixing my washer bottle I removed the wing undershield and noticed this -...

Mine does the same occasionally but 100% all of the friggin time when I am showing someone what a V8 sounds like just after I have told them about the deep growl and rumble it makes, should see their face when instead it sounds like a bag of rusty nails for a few seconds!! :blush:

Thanks everyone for the responses, thats really useful Woorlord weather permitting I will have a go at the weekend and let you know what the problem was Cheers, Ken

Hi, Noticed that my washer fluid level warning was on last night so thought I would top the bottle up, as fast as I was pouring water in the top it was coming out the bottom :huh: With it being dark I havent investigated whats happening but the washer system is working fine with whats left in...
