I only posted this in October last year LOL I have owned my 55 plate 433BHP Remapped A8 4.2 TDI for 4 Months...just gone it to stealers for glow plug and new fuel lines as "crushed"? Anyway, to say I'm impressed is an under statement!!! Had nothing but issues with the Allroad, in fact one of...

Thanks for the influx of responses, I'm overwelmed!!!

No body...so no one has one then?

Granted it's going to be a few months before I am ready to buy, but giving serious thought to the A8 TDI Quattro.. Goes without saying that I'm farouring the 4.2 tdi out of the list above.. It would be around 2007 model...and want all the toys... Want some HONEST opinions on them...is the 4.2...

So are you saying its a garage only job and not a DIY?

At 156k I think it’s time to do the Gearbox oil/Filter and Diff oils... Anyone offer and "easy" to follow guides/walkthroughs ideally with Pictures etc... That or recommend a reputable garage in the Bolton/Manchester region? It seems at times in MANUAL tiptronic mode more obvious, like...

WOW! if your local would love to see this car...after new belts and everything else that involves front end off I'm now getting around 24-25mpg tootling around so not much over 40mph. One cam was out apparently, so better than the 16 I was getting!! Turbo Force Turbo and Tuning Box are the only...

Right, wanna settle this once and for all.... What "exactly" are the differances between the 2.5d and the 2.7 Biturbo/4.2 V8... LOWER CONTROL ARMS i.e. the ones that have a nut on the balljoint? Just I've had 3 sets now that all seem to be for the 2.7/4.2 V8 and the spline on the balljoint...

Managed to get a pair but the ones they had in stock although the same where differant manufacturers, so should have a matching pair for 11:30am.

They are particular to the Diesel Allraod would be more acurate..the 2.7 and the V8 Petrol are the same. Whats more enoughing is its the shaft on the ball joint is slightly bigger on the diesel...

Hi, Other than the Stealers at £133+vat a side where can I get Front Lower Control arms from? GSF £74 + Vat cheapest so far....anywhere else? Need ASAP....thanks
