Hi all, I've got a 2015 allroad that I'm going to do front disks and pads on, I've also got a set of refurbed calipers from the biTDI with 2 pistons that use the 356mm discs rather than the 345mm that are currently on there. My plan is to swap over the calipers and put on the bigger disks and...

Evening all, I have an allroad from 2015 which I really like, its getting a bit long in the tooth, coming up to 120k miles. In the past I've had both front wheel bearings replaced, its now making some noise again and I'm going to be doing the rears, can anyone confirm if the fronts and the...

Hi all, I've got a single turbo 2015 allroad (272), its always suffered with brake judder, about a year ago I changed all the discs and pads which cured it for a short while but it came back. I can't feel the judder through the steering wheel but through the car, a bit like a disc has a grippy...

Hi all, I'm trying to track down the reason for my car fogging up when it's wet, the ventilation system actively fogs it up. If I sit in the car in the rain for a while with the car turned off then nothing fogs up, as soon as the AC system is turned on it fogs up, it's not great fun while...

Hi all, I've noticed that one side mirror in particular is a bit slow to unfold when starting the car up, has anyone attempted getting in to lubricate them? I think an early intervention with a bit of grease now may stop me having to shell out for burnt out motor in the future. Thanks

Evening all, I'd like to change the diff oil on my s-tronic allroad to try and settle my paranoia about a quiet whine, low speed rumble using full lock and more general noise than I'd like. I'm really after a bit of experience of anyone thats done it before or has any info. I can find some stuff...

I've been changing a front wheel bearing today, all was going well until I snapped the upright while tightening the top pinch bolt (doh). Anyway, stripping the upright off has freed up the control arms and I've found the rear lower arm (big curved one) incredibly floppy where it bolts into the...

I've noticed the gearbox in my 2015 allroad 272bhp s tronic. Driving into work this morning, I was doing around 15mph and the 'box didn't seem to be able to decide what gear it wanted, as such it seemed to be banging the clutch in and out really quickly. It wasn't changing gear, more taking...

Evening all, I've got a 2015 Allroad with the HID headlights. This is the first car I've had with HID lights and I was expecting more. I think I've read somewhere that these cars are fitted with low power bulbs, is this the case and if it is then is it possible to upgrade them? I like the tight...

Afternoon all, I've been wondering and thought someone may know. Seeing as the Allroad has bigger diameter tyres than the standard A6, does it also have modified gearing to suit or is it just slightly longer geared? I've noticed the 0-60 time for an allroad is a bit more than a standard Avant...

Its coming to that time of year again and since I've changed my old A4 for an A6 these won't fit on my car anymore. The wheels are 17", I don't think they'll fit on the big brakes of an S4 but they were no issues on my 3.0TDI brakes. The wheels are a bit tatty but I considered them perfect for...

Good morning all. I'm having a puzzle with my interior lights, I've just installed LED bulbs to all the interior lights-my car doesn't have the lighting pack so is bog standard. The bulbs look excellent, a big improvement. The issue I have is that the lights in the roof don't come on when the...

Evening all, I'm going to get the door card lights for my car and so to get ready for it I'm trying to activate the background lighting menu in the mmi. I've activated the ambient footwell lights in the central electrics module but can't work out how to get the dial on my mmi. I've variously...

Evening all, I have a a bit of trim that's doing my OCD no favours. The b pillar trim on the rear door has a big gap at the top, does anyone know if it's easy to get off to reseat? I've attached some pictures of the gappy one and the other side which looks far better. Thanks

Morning all, I just picked up a 2015 allroad yesterday, having come from a 2008 B8 A4 the new car is immensely plush, smooth and quiet, I'm very impressed. Unfortunately it was pouring down when I picked the car up so its now dirty, I'll give it a wash before I put any piccies up. My...

Good morning all, I'm currently browsing A6 avants and allroads, around the 2015-2016 period seem to fit my budget. I'm looking at 3.0 TDIs and notice that the BiTDI version has a tiptronic gearbox where the single turbo has an s tronic box. My previous experience in A4s and A5s is that the s...

Evening all, I have been having ongoing swirl flap issues which I have recently resolved, info has been a bit sparse while I've been doing it so I thought I'd write it all down. I've got a 2008 3.0TDI with 135k on the clock. My problem was around bank 2 (passenger side), the idea with swirl...

Afternoon all, I'm embarking on looking for a new car, I've come from a 3.0TDI A4 B8 which I realised was too small the moment I bought it 4 years ago. From looking at whats available it appears a 3.0TDI C7.5 is about in my price range. I notice these have a decent power hike over the pre face...

Morning all, my 3.0tdi is getting on a bit now and is starting to feel a bit tougher, it's done 135k miles but could do with holding onto it for a little while longer. As such it's worth sorting some bits. I've noticed a whistle/whine coming from the back, I think it alters with speed but does...

Now then chaps, I have a problem with the Mrs' Sharan (not an Audi but nearly) the AC wasn't working so took it to kwik fit for a regas. Apparently the system was flat but it passed the vac test and took a top up, the AC was cool for about a day or so but there was hissing coming from the dash...
