Noticed today my fuel economy for last few days has dipped a bit on my 2009 2.7 TDI multitronic (from ~30 to ~25MPG) and is revving higher. Idle used to sit at 600 and a leisurely drive would rarely exceed 1000rpm, now it is sitting at 1400rpm on the move (even with no acceleration) and idling...

I need to change the oil pressure switch on my A4 2.7 B8 which requires special tool T40175 which is an articulated 24mm socket. Due to space limitations a normal 24mm deep does not fit at all. Does anyone know where I can purchase this from in the UK? Do Audi sell them to private customers...

Does anyone know parts number for the lower sump pan on the 2.7 TDI ? And anywhere likely to have one cheapish? Can't find anything in usual places and don't dare call Audi this side of Christmas.

I have MMI 2G with a 6 CD changer in centre console. This has only ever been used for a phone mount (kind that slots in CD slot) all my music is on a USB stick. How much grief would it be to just totally remove it? Wanting to put in wireless charging and original idea was to replace ash tray...

Quick bit of background, I had a bad motorcycle accident in April so my 2.7 A4 B8 was sat for a few months gathering cobwebs while I was unable to drive. Now I can drive again I've had a few issues. Firstly I have noticed an oil patch appear under car (parked in driveway and never had a spot of...

Along with suspension got a failure for ESP light being on for MOT (really bad timing as obviously wouldn't have taken for MOT if light was on) Basically never had this on before and wasn't on after test but sure enough VCDS showing 2 codes during MOT yesterday... On transmission... 2228 -...

Just failed MOT on offside front (front) upper suspension arm ball joint cover gone. Quick couple of questions... Anything griefy to watch out for changing this? Seen previous articles about avoiding a pinch bolt? Is that the top one? As obviously it will need to come out to swap this arm out...

I have a problem with my washers / intermittent wipers which comes and goes, typically as MOT is due in a few weeks it has suddenly got worse... I am 99.9% sure it is due to the stalk, especially the intermittent switch as can get them working again if I fiddle with this at times. Basically...

Well ordered polisher and some 4 inch chemical boys pads (was thinking smaller maybe better to start with so I'm not trying to do too much at once?) but forgot about backing pad. Read should be smaller than pad and ideally 3.5 inch for 4 inch pad, but was hoping to get cracking tomorrow so was...

Looking at getting rotary polisher for 3 reasons mainly... 1, generally bring out a better shine 2, few minor corrections needed (very minor scratches look like a small area has been rubbed with a dry cloth, almost unnoticeable but I've seen it now! 3, to learn! Looking at getting this one as...

Next issue I've got, this one a minor niggle atm... Occasionally I lose auto wipers and washers, when trying to use washers don't even wipe. Comes and goes so definitely not fuse or motor. Hooked up to VCDS shows 01044 (Control module incorrectly coded) for steering wheel. Checking coding all...

Should check engine light come on with ignition? Just checked mine and showing 2 fault codes (not got them to hand now) but noticed when turning ignition on / starting I don't get check light even flash up is this right? Will do proper look at codes later but concerned now after delays in...

After my car blew up a couple of weeks ago I went looking for an A4 / A6 second hand (budget of around £8000). I spent days scouring the internet and finally found my perfect car, an A4 2.7 TDI S Line in monza silver (extras including B&O, Sat Nav, Full Leather). Car is high mileage but well...
