No need for spacers either happy days!

The old girls got some new shoes

Looking like DV is the way forward but heard bad things about eBay bought replacements. Any thoughts?

Hoping someone can offer some advice on a possible turbo issue on my 07 plate 2.0tfsi. I am concerned I have a boost leak or worst case a turbo on the way out. The engine had a stage one remap which has caused no issues until recently. I had issues with a reoccurring warning light which a new...

To be honest it's £100 I could do without spending this close to Xmas on the off chance it might fix it. Would you expect to see a drastic change in how the car drives with it disconnected?

Ok, story so far. I have had the dreaded engine warning light on for some time now. The error code is showing as P0171 which you will all be no doubt familiar with. Having read countless forums discussing this fault many pointed towards cleaning the MAF sensor as a possible solution. I should...

Good point, as good a place as any to start. Would I be correct in saying the OEM amp is already powered, the feed from the head unit is just to switch it on? If it does show 12v I'm guessing I need a high low convertor?

Hi Guys, I've posted this in the ICE forum but was hoping some of you that don't frequent that forum may be able to help. Any help/advice that you can offer on the post below would be appreciated. http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/help-with-wiring-and-rear-volume.258989/ Cheers

I have an 07 Plate saloon with non-bose audio. Here's where I've got to: Wired rear speaker wires from loom to RCA plugs Connected pre-outs from HU (Alpine W928R) to rear speaker RCA's I'm happy these are working as I get audio albeit not amp'd. My issue is the HU has a remote out which it...

Hi, thanks for your reply. I'm using RCA output from the HU but need a signal wire to kick the amp in. The HU has a remote wire for this purpose but struggling to find the corresponding wire on the Audi loom for the amp.

My apologies for what might appear to be a dumb question, but it I use the remote switch on from my Kenwood HU straight to the amp signal feed I don't need a HILO convertor right?

Can anyone suggest where I can source a new oil pump assembly for my 2.0Tfsi? The local Audi steeler wants £1200+ which I know is the norm but there must be a cheaper route? The pump assembly is to fit a BWE model engine, part number: 06D103295P. Any advice/recommendations would be...

Unfortunately yes :apologetic:, although how major is hard to say. The chain cog has broken and other damage means replacing at least the pump. Don't want to fork out 4 figures for a new pump to find damage further up the engine. The pump failed at low speed but concerned a ticking/rattle the...

Can anyone recommend an engine reconditioner or alternatively where I can source a replacement engine for my motor? I've considered just replacing the oil pump assembly but having read up in this i'm concerned there may be damage I can't see which may result in the need to replace the engine...
