    Facelift What fuel will your next car use?

    I currently run a 2.0tdi A3, when I replace the car, I am unsure whether to go for another diesel, or a performance petrol (as a last hurrah before getting a Gen 2 or 3 EV). Hybrid doesn’t work for me (I buy used and regularly drive 300 miles plus at a time). I am curious what other users are...

    Light malfunction message, no obvious malfunction.

    2013 8V, halogen headlights. When I turn the headlights on, the message for light malfunction appears in the dash. However, all the bulbs on the car are working. What might this be? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Recharge air con gas

    Has anyone here recharged their a/c unit themselves? Mine is currently in need of a regas, but I am loath to pay as it looks fairly simple to do. My question is a two parter. 1. I assume the relevant valve is located on the lower left side of the engine bay near the fuel filter? 2. Does...

    AMI cable issue (?) with iPhone 7

    I have a 2013 A3 with MMI (low?), it is the smaller screen on the display. I have been able to connect my iPhone 7 via bluetooth, no issues there. However, I am unable to connect to the car via an AMI cable, the car is not registering the data connection at all, but it is charging the iPhone...

    Buying advice needed

    I have a choice of PXing my 2005 B7 S4 Avant against a (dealers) 2012 A3 Sportback 2.0 tdi with 50k miles and a poverty spec, or a 2011 A4 Avant 2.0tdi E SE with 76k miles. Both manual. I cover about 10k miles per annum. I like the Avant and it has the minimum 'toys', but don't really need...

    Dual zone climate control - only cold air blowing from one side

    I have a B7 Avant 2005 and in he last couple of days the drivers side vents will only blow cold air, regardless of the temp setting. Passenger side is fine. Airflow on the drivers side matches fan setting on dash. But no temperature increase. This is the same for all vents. What do I need...

    Truth or BS? - Decomposing V8 engine blocks.

    I've been having a conversation recently with someone about high mileage 4.2V8 engines (such as you get in the B7 S4). The other person is telling me that 'they have been told by an Audi tuning specialist' that the aluminium engine blocks used in the V8 are specially treated to 'withstand the...

    Gearbox oil - time to change?

    I realise Audi say the gearbox oil is for the 'life' of the car, but is there any REAL advantage to changing the gearbox oil? When i spoke to a dealer they were 'no it's fine', but what does the collective wisdom of the Internet say? Also, what sort of cost for getting an Indy to do it...

    Alloy wheels, refurb or replace?

    Here's a question chaps, the 18" alloys on my 10yr old S4 Avant are looking 'well worn'. I have had a quote for refurbing the alloys from a place with a great reputation near me (Gillingham, Kent). Lovely work. However, the cost of the refurb is not significantly different to what it would...

    S4 Avant - fitting aftermarket DAB. A Pillar trim removal.

    I've owned my S4 Avant since December 2014 last year and have been pretty happy with it so far. My only quibble would be some paint crazing on the bonnet under the clear coat and lack of options. Definitely 'liveable with'. Initially I could not get over how different it was to my 5 series, but...

    S4/B7 which spark plugs

    Hi, bit of a dumb/lazy question. Audi have quoted me £266 for a set of 8 spark plugs, so I think I shall fit them myself. The question is, what is the correct brand model of plug - before I take one out of the engine to check. It is a 2005 S4 Avant with the 4.2V8. Many thanks!
