Ever since we have owned our 2001 TT Roadster 225 it has never started first time but second turn of the key its been fine until recently. Now the car will not start on the first 3 or 4 attempts and then once it runs it coughs splutters and conks out. On the next try it will fire up perfectly...

I recently upgraded my front door speakers and they have been working great but all of a sudden both drivers and passenger side speakers stopped working. The wiring is fine, the door looms are fine, the fact that both stopped at the same time suggests something else. I have checked the whole...

I have already had to replace the engine and gearbox tray as apart of my Avant ownership but yesterday whilst at motor way speeds the large plastic tray that runs the length of the passenger sill broke free and destroyed the little plastic covers in front and behind. Not wanting to spend a...

Was pulling out of a junction yesterday and suddenly my ESP kicks in and I have hardly any power it was like the clutch was slipping, the revs were high but I was accelerating at a very slow pace, I then braked gently and my ABS kicked in. Every time I squeezed my throttle I lost traction, I...

I have just changed my brake fluid and swapped to SS lines due to the feel of my brake pedal being so poor. Imagine my horror when after all this work it's now worse than ever! I ran the ABS test function numerous times with my VCDS, I pressure bled the system numerous times whilst tapping the...

With Oil pressure issues on these engines so common I was wondering how easy it would be to install an oil pressure gau ge so that I can spot any potential issues on the horizon. I have had the hex key on the balance shaft replaced for a harder longer version so I'm happy the pump should be ok...

Just stripped the thread in the rear caliper in my Avant. What are my options, the bleed nipple has had it and there are literally no threads left in the caliper. Before I think about buying a new caliper can this be saved some how?

Hello all, I am in the middle of refurbishing all of the brakes on my Avant with new stainless hoses, back plates, disks etc. Im looking to piece it back together this weekend and will need to completely change the fluid. I have a one man bleed kit so have no issues bleeding the system but...

Is every B7 fitted with one of these, I am fitting footwell lights at the weekend and have VCDS so need to know if its a case of using the VCDS to turn them on or wire them from the headlight switch and have the option to have them on whilst driving but with the ability to turn them off on a...

Hi guys, I want to replace the woeful non Bose door speakers I have with some aftermarket, do you guys have any recommendations for this as I want to fit the biggest speakers I can. Any hints and tips appreciated.

I am getting a right old clunk from the passenger side rear suddenly and it seems to be getting worse. I have overhauled allot of the rear suspension recently and had 1000's of trouble free miles (in light of the suspension at least) so I am not sure what can cause the noise. Its really loud...

After months of having an inactive anti shudder valve I have just fitted a new unit which worked great as I tested it on the drive. I then moved the car to let the misses get out the drive and I got a shudder on shut down. The valve stopped working so I ran a test on it using VCDS and it started...

I am at my witts end with this car, I have a practically brand new turbo that's absolutely fine, I have a DPF which was replaced a few years ago, I have fitted a new Air Mass Meter, new fuel filters, regular oil changes, I'm quite sure there is no boost leak, I ran it only on premium fuel but...

My DPF on my 2.0 tdi 170 won't stop blocking. I forced a regen on it today with the help of the missus and we got it down to 0% from 40 but as soon as I accelerate the levels go up again and it was back to 10% when I got home. We checked the measuring blocks as I was driving and I was getting...
