Having had both, S-Tronic is the better gearbox, I find the Multitronic quite "lazy", but then most auto boxes are compared to S-Tronic!

Aruba here too....

Apparently there are no fuses. Dealer had to replace both headlight units.

I have my left Xenon headlight out, so before I go to the dealers, I want to make sure that it's not something simple like a fuse - can I find the fuse listed in the owners manual or inside the fusebox covers? Anyone know if there is one, and where it is? Thanks :)

Well, got it back after gearbox no.3 and it's still the same. Dealer consulted with Audi UK again, who have now said that it's a characteristic of the gearbox! Funny that it co-incides with me passing 60,000. It also makes me wonder why they would have replaced the box twice (first replacement...

Mine does do that - but describing it as "a little thud" would be understating it somewhat! Sometimes it will pull away normally, and other times it's as though launch control is activated - nothing for a half second or so then a big crunch/bang, and it's off like a scalded cat!!

Seriously? Is it really just me? :)

LOL yeah it seems that way - funnily enough, one of the dealers actually said that to me. Both under warranty, and company lease cars anyway - although the current one is at 65000 miles, but as the problem started at 45000 they still have to fix it :D It's spent 28 days in Audi Centres this...

Ok, some of you may remember my 1st 8P Sportback TDi which had to have it's DSG box replaced at about 10,000 miles. I now have an 07 2.0TFSi - which is waiting for it's 3rd (Yes, 3rd) replacement gearbox. Basically, it crunches when changing gear and going from N to D and D to N (But not in to...

Do what I did and rock up to the dealer with all the stuff you think you'll need to put in the boot. If it only just fits in, it's too small - you can guarantee you've forgotten something!!!! Dealer wasn't too happy about me wanting to try my bike in the back though, even though it was clean!!

Camel 5hit and bus tickets...

I had a UK example Sunny GTI-R, (The Pulsar is a Japanese grey import) - very quick, but as has been said previously the gearbox is the weak link - and the clutch... Changing the clutch itself is a huge job, too!!!
