    EPB releasing itself ?

    I think you’re activating auto-hold which will release after a set period of time. Auto-hold activated by pressing foot brake, parking brake activated by the EPB switch in centre console Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Audi A3 8V (sway bar creak)?

    I had noise from both sides as well and I had tried lubing the roll bar bushes but it made no difference, then I read somewhere that the void bush in the rear of the lower arm causes the noise. I took the front wheels off so I could see where to spray and soaked them from top and bottom Sent...

    Audi A3 8V (sway bar creak)?

    I recently had this issue and thought is was anti roll bar bushes which can be bought and changed easily. My creaking was coming from the front lower arm rear bushes, easy fix soaked them with silicone spray and a month on still quiet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Facelift Footwell lights!

    Cheers for that info as lights I’ve been looking at are the older shape. I’ve found where the rear ones fit in the front seats but would appreciate pics of where the front ones are if possible. Was also going to just wire them into a ignition switched feed to make it a simple job. Sent from...

    Facelift Footwell lights!

    Could someone be kind enough to show me pics of of where the front footwell light are located. I,ve had a look in my 8v Sport and can’t even see any blank holes under the dash like you you used to find in older cars..tia Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    How to get metal accelerator pedal on?

    Use a flashlight and you’ll see a torx screw on the base of throttle pedal, undo and lift away. There is only one plug, remove it no worries about causing electrical issues Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    How to get metal accelerator pedal on?

    When I done mine I removed the pedal and it was much easier. 1 bolt to remove and disconnect the multi plug. As said fairy liquid and small bladed screwdriver Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Intermittent high idle

    High idle can be caused by low battery voltage. When then voltage is low the higher idle increases the charge rate whilst idling. Have a battery test done to test battery. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Installing Metal OEM pedals

    It’s simple. 1 screw, lift throttle and lift away then remove plug. Little bit of fairy liquid around rim of pedal cover to ease getting the rim of pedal cover over the pedal. A bit of heat will be your friend to soften the rubber Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
