Hi everyone. After comparing photos of the different patters I ordered a Q and it fits. Thanks for your help.

I've just had one of those weeks I over and want to forget. I don't want to sound like a country and western song telling you all about it but I hope you can help make one thing better. I lost my wheel nut key after changing my spare wheel. Can someone help me find out which one it could be, by...

With that site it does seem the sharkfin is the aerial. Im beginning to wonder if the replacement booster I got just wasn't any good.

Im not too familiar with audio terminology, is that the cable between the aerial and the booster?

A couple of years ago my car's radio reception took a nose dive. In general the reception is OK and picking up local stations and sounding clear but the list of available stations has dropped. When scanning for these further away stations they aren't found and occasionally it wont find more...

The mechanic did say its at the back of the engine so labour takes longer. If it was in an easy place I'd suggest to clean it first I think, but its going to be 200-250 for the replacement. I could be paying around £250 for something that may not work and have to pay the £750 anyway :(...

The car is a 2011 A3 2.0 TDI Sportsback and done about 100k miles. The glow plug light started flashing on the dash and the car went to limp mode I took it to a garage who said the error code is EGR error and been quoted £750 for the genuine part and replacement. I do trust this garage, but is...

Thanks Samlsnake and Matt268UK. I have managed to find what I need now.

What you said makes sence. I was getting very frustrated as the image of the glass looked correct but when searching compatibility it said it wasn't compatible. The glass has come off once before, I glued it on but didn't hold and the mirror fell off weeks later. If I can get the remains of...

Its a 2011 Sportsback. So it looks 8PA but Im really struggling to find a UK heated passenger (left side) mirror Thanks

Im on eBay looking for a replacement wing mirror, but I cant seem to find out if it is compatible with our car. All the checks list Audi A3 8P1 and 8PA however according to the car's actual chassis number it is 8P8. Is there an 8P8?

The side mirror glass fell off my wife's A3 sports back. Where is the best place to get a replacement.? I looked on eBay but they seem to be just generic replacements. It's also heated of that makes a difference.

Original work was done from a known VAG garage which I thought would be best to use even though it was 30+ miles away. This added quite an addition to my costs getting it towed there after if first snapped. I wasn't happy about the £30 charge for a brand of belt I can get from my local...

The garage is probably more like 10 miles, plus I drove a mile or so back after it snapped. Also when I got the car a service report said the battery is only 60% good, so I think I am pushing it too much. All this started when I got my cambelt changed about 2 years ago. I was told the tensioner...

Hi, Is the electronic handbrake / e-brake fail safe? Ie. is the default of the brakes actually and the electronics hold the brake off? My fanbelt has snapped AGAIN. The garage is a few miles away, although the steering is tough Im more worried about the battery. As it wont be charging I...
