Hi All, Merry Christmas, I hope someone can help, I bought a 2013 Audi A1 1.6tdi Sline Sportback (CAYC) with 106,000 on the clock in October from Bravoauto Cannock, whilst the purchase of the car was not the best experience ive ever had (due to the Ar--ole Saleman) i decided to buy it because...

Hi Everone, hope you are all well, the car started with a chirping/squeeling noise from the front pulleys a few weeks ago and it seems worse when cornering for some reason or going round a roundabout, so I got the bonnet up and I could have sworn the noise was coming from the belt tensioner so I...

No, i'm not doing the exhaust myself, the car is on jack stands at the mo as i'm changing the suspension arms and changing my front springs, when its done i might see if the centre box can be deleted permanently, just not sure if this will will affect the car in any way and dont want it to sound...

No, it's not because I can't afford it, if I wanted a body shop job that's what I'd go and get, it all about choice and what you want, I was saying in general terms the way I am going with my car only and not what anyone else should do, I am going to get a couple of painted wings and fit myself...

Both my Front wings are on the way, I've repainted where the rust has been coming through for the past couple of years but they want doing, I'm gonna get two decent painted ones in brilliant red from the ones advertised on fleabay of gumstree and do it myself, I will Claybar my bonnet and doors...

I have been looking on fleabay for a second hand one, I don't really want a new one, I have found a new centre section on fleabay for £160 Inc shopping from Poland, but by the time I've paid someone put it on etc I'm going into a couple of hundred just for the centre bit, there is a welding guy...

There is a vid on YouTube that give you an idea, looks straightforward tbh, no biggie, just take you time, have a look

I've had a look on the Bosal website and it shows the fwd centre section for the quattro, it does not show the twin pipe silencer, I did wonder whether I could delete the centre box, I have watched a YouTube vid where a guy with an S4 had the centre section chopped out and replaced with two...

Hi all, I wonder if you can give some needed ideas on what I can do with my exhaust, My 2004 A4 1.9 quattro's centre silencer is on its way out, I have been patching it for the last couple of years for the mot but now one of the hangers one side has broken free, I've looked and unfortunately...

Well the I'm having my back subframe cleaned up now as we speak at the garage, they are cleaning it up and waxoiling it, it was also an advisory on the mot and I didn't fancy lying on my back underneath it.

Hi, the CTS is at the back of the engine on the 1.9 avf engine and is held in place by a large black plastic clip, if you can fit a genuine part as the cheapo one don't last five minutes and a more trouble than their worth, a bit fiddly to fit at the back of the engine and you will have to...

Did you change the back one yourself ? and if you did was it a nightmare!!!!, Mines a Quattro btw

I have just had my front subframe replaced on my 2004 A4 1.9tdi quattro manual because of rot and mot failure, I managed to get a decent one online by giving my vin, the part number is 8E0 399 313 BD and has B7 on the sticker, my car has an AVF engine and fitted perfectly, hope this helps. My...

Both my b5 and b6 both cars had the undertray missing when I purchased the cars and I have replaced both, I think these do help to shield the underneath from the worst of the weather although I do agree with pie-eyedpiper that they are a bit of a pain come service time.

The Front subframe has been replaced now with a later subframe from a b7, on inspection the whole subframe didn't look very good with corrosion all over it and with a hole near the gearbox mount end, I had painted parts of it that I could get to in the past but didn't realise it was in such a...

Sorry for having a moan about the rust, yes its done well considering it has 191, 000 mls on the clock but I have to say comparing all the corrosion issues I've had on the car, wings, drivers door, rear n/s inner wheel arch and now subframe I never expected a prestige car to behave like this, I...

Thanks for your help, I was a bit shot down in flames the other day when it failed having passed the previous 4 years but there you go,what is it with these Audi's and corrosion !!, I had painted some of the chassis and subframe underneath to protect it but the subfram e just went into a hole...

Oh and by the way it's a 6 speed Manual gearbox

Hi all, hope you all are well, took the car for an Mot today and guess what it failed!!!, Just another good day !!, the front Subframe has excessive corrosion and need replacing, I'm looking for a replacement but struggling to find one, are all B6 front subframes the same ?, I can get a b6 2.5L...

Just an update, remapping might be over before it's even started for now, got home tonight from work, reversed as normal in driveway and there is a distinct sort of rattling noise Audible in the car when the car is in neutral, tried pushing the clutch in and no change, hope it's not the DMF, had...
