Guys and gals This is not a for sale add so don't shoot me down in flames. However it is likely that by baby will be up for sale. I thought i would give forum users first dibs if anyone is interested. 2003 B6 1.9 TDI quattro sport Full factory fitted quattro kit, later called the S-line kit RS4...

Where exactly is that connector, its just the fronts on mine.

N75 duty of over 80% is bad!. Basically this is the proportion of how closed the actuator is, so you can read it as a percentage of the exhaust gasses being used to produce boost. If your using 99.6% to generate your boost then you have a boost leak or a duff N75. Had the old AUQ engine which...

Hi there, i am trying hard to identify a possible dicky thermostat as a cause for high fuel consumption. THere are numerous measuring blocks within VCDS which measure "Temperature". I know that the reading for the dash guage and the ecu are taken in different places. Anyone know specifically...

Well i get around 36-38mpg fillip to fillip. Never rely on car computers. Have always thought mine was a bit low. Anyone care to say which measuring block on VAG Com identifies the thermostat temp? Matt

S Line ones as i prefer colour coded bodies

There are various parts to the ECU. A tuning remap will only affect the driving side of the car, ie the engine. a dealer remap could cover anything covered by the ECU.

Believe its around 15psi

I would truly love to know who was present at the design meeting where Audi decided that having no brake lights at all, only warranted a yellow light on the dash rather than a red one!!! Got the ABS/ESP lights on today when on a little drive, 5 mins later i get the flashing glow plug. Put the...
