This drives me nuts too! Just when the windscreen is clear it rubs it again and obscurs the view again!

You must have spent more than the car is worth! :)

Thanks Mike, I replaced the wiring loom about 3 months ago as i was hoping it was that. Ill look for NHN. Thanks again.

Hi Guys, I have an a3 2.0 TDI (2004) BKD. I still have my rough idle that only occurs while the car is heating up. Final straw so i sent it into Audi yesterday for 3 hours. They checked everything and literally nothing is showing a fault- nothing! So my car is fine but yet idles like...

I got one from GARY1971. Its exactly as described above. Very roughly moulded, doesnt take paint well and sits too high off the back end of the car. Dont do it!

Ha ha ha! Two audi garages later, with varying diagnoses of loose engine mounts, dodgy gearbox, flywheel going, i have stumbled accross the problem...and you wont believe it! ...turns out the knocking sound upon aggressive accelleration was a miniature screw driver that i left under the...

Hi there! Just wondering...what is the correct idle speed for the 2004 2.0tdi BKD engine? Often my car vibrates like a b*tch on idle when cold. (I know loads of people have this problem). Its currently idling at that time at about 800 revs. It sounds almost as if its being trangled and is...

Is it just me or do the front wheels look larger than the back wheels? Maybe im just going crazy from staring at it????

Dont go ebay. I bought one out of curiosity. It was very rough moulded. The paint didnt take well to it at all (local audi dealer sprayed it for me). In fact due to small bumps in it i can now see bubble in the paint starting. Stay away!

Aesthetically speaking, thats just an S3 with a different front bumper. Not over impressed.

I rarely go below 50mpg with any style of driving..apart from flooring it! On daily motorway trips to work i usually hit 65mpg easiyl enough.

Badging your car as something better than it is = DON'T Im not so anti-badging your car. I havnt done it myself but i can see why some people do. The styling of and S3 is much nicer than an A3 2.0TDI. However not everyone can afford an S3. Not everyone can afford to run and S3. Some people like...

Im going to be doing the same CV boot replacement soon so any help would be great!

I replaced the injector wiring loom this morning. As far as i could see there was absolutely nothing wrong with the loom that was already there but anyway!... It also hasnt made any different in terms of the misfire/engine shake. The engine still idles slightl erratically like...

Yeah from looking through Elsa thats the impression i get. Most of them are dreamt up to make it a dealer only job! Cheers for the adive. New loom arriving today and putting it in tomorrow. Will post up how it goes. Cheers, Tom

Yeah mine is 6 years old! Now if i can just sort that misfire out ill be laughing!:icon_thumright:

I assume its normal for it to be covered in oil? There is a special audi tool used to loosen and remove the main wiring loom over to the right. Its a cylindrical shape implement that i assume attaches to a wrench. Anyone know if this is vital for removing or will a bit of improvisation be...

Is it normal that lately (consistently) i have been doing my 36 mile trip at 70mph and doing 68-69mpg? I know the 2.0TDI doesnt like to drink, but thats a very high mpg average isnt it?

Nice one thanks for that! Can you describe what the injector loom actually looks like? In Elsa is an injector loom call an electrical connector? Does anyone have a picture of an injector loom or know where i can see one? Tom.

Quick question: If i unclip the electrical connector to the MAF sensor and start the car (2.0TDI, 2004) will i get an fault light on the dashboard? If, yes when i re-connect the connector and re-start the car will everything return to normal? Im need to test with the MAF sensor out of the...
