    How to te activate key

    Haven't heard that and I work for Audi! We advise the ignition procedure, the one you described I believe works if you have 2 keys in the absense of VCDS/5051. The ignition process is for older keys and only works with some flip keys I believe.

    How to te activate key

    Unlock car with the key in the door, put the key in the ignition but don't start it then hold the lock or unlock button for a few seconds. That's how mine pairs back up anyway.

    Should my turbo whistle?

    AFN engine is 110. There's a little whistle when I lift off on mine, more so with a de-cat.

    drinks holder

    The one that goes BEHIND the handbrake? Audi still sell that, sub 20 quid I think.

    High Mileage S5

    From dealership experience, find out if it's had the clutch done. That's all I'm really able to say ;-).

    Sheet Car

    I like mine and all but don't see it ever being my classic. I work it so hard it deserves some kind of respect for how tough it is though.

    Flexi/CAT replacement

    Anyone flogging one for a 1.9TDi 110? Mine's blowing like a b*tch and finding one is proving difficult (want to bash the cat out so no buying one new to butcher for the prices they are!)

    Flexi Size

    Anyone know the diameter of the flexi pipe behind the turbo on an AFN engine. Mine is blowing and I want to get another one welded on.

    weekend cambelt dilemma

    If you're mechanically minded and mark everything up then you'll be able to do it in a day. Book time is 3 hours, parts are about 100 quid from the dealers AFAIK. It's pretty easy if you don't rush it.

    Low Mileage, too good to be true ?

    According to Audi Vehicle management system there's no data whatsoever on it's mileage. Blackburn Audi sold it and that's it. It left the dealers with 57 miles on it. It also has 3 outstanding recalls on it.

    Buying A8 from auction, how to know what options are fitted

    Late reply because I hadn't looked here before but Audi dealers will have to tell you. Drop me a PM and I'll look it up at work if you haven't bought one already.
