Hi all, After posting months ago, I'm still having no result with my boost issue. I've replaced every single sensor in the engine possible and even a new wiring loom. This code flags up everytime before the car is even started. P0234 - Manifold Pressure / Boost Sensor (Overboost Condition)...

Morning all, I recently purchased a new car around a month ago after the devastation of piston 2 in my previous car. I got a really good price on the car regardless of any faults. So a few weeks go by, purchased some new lights front and rear, some new wheels, etc.. as you do. It had a small...

Hey guys, Been a little while since I posted on here but just after some advice really. I have just purchased a KO4 setup so to speak. KO4 Turbo Turbo Manifold Throttle Body 3" MAF KO4 Intake Exhaust (from turbo) I have been trying to search up for the best advice but still not quite sure...

Hey All, The past week or so I have noticed my boost gauge has dramatically dropped in boost, having stages where the car is idling at 1,000 revs rather than the usual 800 / 900 rpm. When stopping at lights also seems to feel like it wants to stall, I'm getting maximum of 0.2 bar of boost. I...

Hey Guys, It's been a long time since I posted up and really wanted to some advice now as I'm looking to start tuning my car. Here's some photos of her recently; I know this is certainly not everyone's cup of tea but however I love what I'm building and just want some tuning advice, so...

My mate has recently bought an audi a3 8l 1.8t aum 2003. 80k on clock. The car has supposedly been stage 1 mapped which is believable until you get to 4,000 revs. There seems to be no problem with driving it whatsoever other than when he wants to use the pedal a little more it's like the car...

In the snow last year I slid on some ice and my car was pretty ****** as I slid into a kerb, wishbone was bent etc. I replaced the wishbones both sdies and from that point I was stuck with reverse camber - which to me was very noticable. So recently I've decided to get her back on the road, I...

Just wanted some opinions on the visual of my car at the moment. It's kind of hard to get off my partners driveway without scraping but hey :) I haven't yet got the fog lights so they still need fitting and ordered a pretty nice Audi badge for the grille, I'll post that as an update later on...

Tomorrow I'm looking to service my car and replace everything necessary. I want to get the best service done on the car possible as it's going in for a map next week. I know there's been a lot of debates in regards to oil, but I just want the best oil I can get for the car. Any recommendations...

I know this has probably come up before but was kind of hoping if someone may point me in the right direction. I'm after a stage 1 remap on my 1.8T Is there any recommended place close to Warrington, Cheshire ? I don't want to have to travel too far and would preferably like to spend below...

Just wondered whether the 1.8T AGU had a twin or single coil ?

Hello all, I know there's plenty of threads out there regarding fmics. Just wanted to know opinions on what people think. What is the best fmic to fit and what sort of price range am I looking at? Also just wanted to check if 2003 lights will fit my 2000 model with no modifications? I would...

Hello all, I've finally managed to clear all my errors on VAG-COM. I've still got one outstanding issue. Everytime I pull up at a set of traffic lights or sit idle somewhere I can smell fumes coming from my car which seem to smell very rich. Is this common on an engine this age ? What is the...

I plugged my car in last week because I got some issues with my temp gauge. When driving on motorway the temperature drops to 60 or below. VCDS was showing coolant temp. sensor malfunction so i changed that today. Now when sitting in heavy traffic the temp goes up to 90 then the temp sign...

Just wanted to make sure these will fit my car. 235/35/19 5 x 100 PCD Will these definitely fit as I won't be able to check upon collection because the muppet who sold me my car left no locking nut! Anyone know how much a tyre fitting place may charge to remove locking nuts also ?

One of my errors codes on my car is the coolant temperature sensor and has the problem of the temperature dropping to 60 or below when driving without traffic or on the motorway however when traffic is around the temperature stays at 90. I read this is a common problem. I'm looking to change...

Hello All, I posted the other day in regards to moving back to Audi as I have had an absolute terrible 5 - 6 months with my Vauxhall Astra costing me over £5,500 in the past 3 months alone. I've now settled and bought a lovely looking green a3 1.8t So far I've only updated the rear lights...

Hello all once again, It's been a real crap year for me with cars. Since my previous 1.8T was written off earlier this year due to a muppet on his phone I resorted to purchasing an absolute pile of junk (Vauxhall Astra 1.9 CDTI SRI 150) Power was lovely, problems were disgusting. In the 3...

Anyone got a link or know any similar model for a decat pipe on these models can't seem to find anything apart from 2.0t pipes. Cheers.

Hello all, So far I've only done around 1,000 miles in my "new" car. Today my car has been starting real lazy. I don't believe it's the starter motor as it won't start at all now and has been working pretty much fine all day, I've tried to jump start it and it pretty much starts but won't allow...
