Hi how will i know if i have the correct type glove box to fit? How much do you want for it? Thanks Ryan.

Hi i purchased it from TPS. Which is a VAG trade parts supplier £85, but i have since realized i had a part missing in mine which is why i was struggling to fit it. If you do purchase one. Make sure you have two wiring looms in the box for the different type head units and also your ipod...

The egr is usually located on the side of the intake manifold and looks like a black oblong unit with a plug and is bolted in with 3-4 torx bolts. Ive not removed one on a BKD, but usually they're not too difficlut you may find it carbon'd or sludged up so it cant actuate properly. Give it a...

Hi i have the Concert II+. I don't have a cd changer present so in the manual is says it will need to be coded to recognise the iPod as a cd changer. I already have the audi bluetooth car kit installed, but it wont stream music unfortunately and they only do a cradle for the iphone 4s and i have...

Possible EGR Fault. It may need a clean to start with.

Hi, can anyone advise on this one. I have purchased a genuine ipod interface. Upon opening the box the loom which comes with it has a plug one end for the interface and the other end is bare terminals which are to be plugged into the back of the quad lock connector in a certain order. The manual...

Just a quick one, but potentially the actuator at fault if the turbo has been replaced. Firstly the vains start to seize and this damages the actuator. Had this the other week on a passat. Thanks Ryan.

Hi the rad drops out toward the engine. Then down to the ground after you have removed the fan assembly.

Hi has anyone physically removed the DPF from a A3 170 Quattro. It looks a right mare. Any info would be good as i've had it mapped and deleted. Just got to gut it now , but i looks like transfer box off and subframe just to get at it. Thanks Ryan.

Can anyone tell me if the runner control is via vacuum solenoid or has a motor with position sensor in. Thanks Ryan.

Hi, the pics are a bit un-clear but it looks like its just dislocated off of the cv circlip . The clip either sits on the end of the driveshaft or in the cv its self. As long as the spines aren't damaged it should go back together. You will get this part non genuine. Should be around £60 mark...

Thanks

Hi just seemed strange as vcds suggested short to plus intermittent which suggests electrical

Hi all, Don't suppose anyone can shed any light on this on. Glow plug light started to flash and flagged 012600 Intake manifold runner control deviation ( P3138 ). I assumed at first it was the control solenoid. As it said short to ground, and as it was a fairly cheap part i replaced it. All has...

Hi Rick, yes cambelt kit and water pump fitted at the dealer 1000 miles ago. Just before I brought it. I have since tweaked cam timing and brought it down to 0.37 and is running much smoother now. Thanks for your interest.
