Thanks SfC, I am sure it will be a complete hoot in the summer and with a 450w B&W system in it I find my 16yr old son has to turn down the volume as (the sub is in the passenger footwell) and the vibrations give him a headache...poor dear!

Apologies for posting on an Audi Forum (I do own a remapped Audi A6/C6 however). I fitted a TCU+ gearbox flash to my 2014 Jaguar XK Dynamic R last November (I purchased the car in Oct 18), appreciate not the best time to do it since really can't drive in a spirited fashion with 510PS to the...

I fitted some cheapy ones off Ebay from China 3yrs back, no issues but are a tad bright. No canbus reported issues either.

Guys (Especially Dessert Storm I have a UK RHD 2007 Audi A6 C6 3.0tdi Can you share where the N290 fuse is in my car? It's been off the road for 3 months and have changed The lift pump The fuel pump relays (twice) The HPFP The fuel pressure sensor The Fuel Pressure regulator The Fuel...

Absolutely superb detail :)

B5 this is an awesome write-up...perhaps you and Gups need to make babies!!?? :scared2:

My understanding of the C6 with ACC (from Chris on another forum) is that the telltale sign is the 4 inch black square sensor below the numberplate. Looking on autotrader there are supposedly 51 with ACC but when you look at the pictures only one has ACC if the black sensor also applies to...

Don't touch autotrader, had my jag on their and just scam messages for the 4 weeks :( Defo pistonheads or on here. Would get a better price if we had more of the slippery stuff...was positively balmy today :)

Ordered the 3 gaskets for the EGR assembly on my 3.0 from dealer and came to around £15, will attempt an EGR clean in this slightly milder weather over the next few days..and will post up the part no's for the gaskets Weirdly at over 100k miles (22k in my ownership) my TB butterfly looks like...

Test of battery chargers seen here: Battery chargers tested | Product Reviews | Auto Express It took a full 5 days to totally recondition my 07 battery, so lucky I had another car to use, but as we know it's best to slow/intelligently charge our cars as opposed to getting the most robust...

Invest in a decent battery charger, something from the CTEK range (3.5 upwards) and charge the battery for a few days if possible, could be that it's fine and just needs some deep conditioning and certainly don't replace unless it won't take a charge. The charger will serve you well for many...

Mine still look new after 100k miles and the leather seems thick and hardwearing. Less so on my Jag with oatmeal leather, I find that lighter colours wear worse and suffer more UV/heat damage than any other colour, also with black an scuffs can be covered easily (read as black permenant...

Gup I never tire of your dirty pictures m8 :applaus:

100% on MMI battery display isn't a good gauge as to battery charge/condition as it's totally ballpark. Mine read 100% and took 5 days on a CTEK charger for that to advise of full charge/peak condition. I ensure that any periods of non-use greater than 72hrs I have the battery on charge...

Jim If they have MOT facilities get them to do an emissions test before and after (also ask if they'll test after 1000 miles), that way you can see the emissions improvements in real terms (which some feel don't exist). As you know there those that require empirical evidence, and your garage...
