Got my screen wash light come on for the first time so looking to buy some, was curious whether it matters which screen wash I use? I was going to give this Rain X water repellent one to see how well it works (if at all)...

I am wondering whether I am able to enable the mirror dip while reversing function on my B8.5, when I don't have memory seats? My mirrors are electronic and heated but not folding. Anyone tried it before?

Having lots of small problems crop up with my B8.5 almost every other weak now, having fixed the sticking brake caliper 2 weeks ago, I thought that was the last one, but now I have another problem. Was driving today, cold start after 1 week of being parked. Let the car warm up for about 5...

Given my car has been sitting most of this year, I seem to be getting a weekly low battery alert come up on the dash so think the battery is on the way out. Ofcourse I am putting some motorway runs in every now and then to keep the battery charged up, but it got me looking at replacements...

My B8.5 has been sitting for most of this past year, with the odd supermarket run and quick spin on the motorway every now and then. Unfortuntely, it seems to have developed what I think is a brake drag problem. When driving, sometimes I notice the car seems to struggle to put the power down...

Wondering how common it is for the car to judder when pulling away (B8.5). It only happens after a long motorway run, if I park the car for a short period (like 10-15 mins) and then start it back up with the engine still warm, if I pull away in gear 1 I always get a slight judder, only in gear...

Hi, I have a B8.5 and need new wiper blades. It seems to be the hardest thing I have tried to match with the OEM part number vs brand part number. I am looking to get some Bosch wiper blades but cannot for the life of me figure out which ones I need. I believe the Audi part number is...

Had my B8.5 for about a year and a half now, has been super reliable and an awesome car. However, this morning I started her up only to find a red coolant warning lamp. I pulled the car out of the drive to get it on a level surface and checked the level, the coolant normally sat at exactly the...

So my Dad drove my A4 B8.5 (2014) a couple days ago, he had played around with the radio settings as when I came back it was on one of the frequency wavebands. Didn't think much of it but went back to my favourites and selected my saved DAB radio station, all was normal, the station worked...

Hi, I have been servicing my Audi myself and have been resetting the oil service from the MMI. But now I have the Inspection Service reminder showing up on the car, how can I reset this? Is there a green screen menu I can enter (MMI 3G+)? Or is my only option VCDS? If that is the case, can I...

Hi, my 2014 B8.5 has a slow air con leak (the gas lasts approx 1 month). Given the age of the car my best guess is stone chip damage to the condenser. I had a poke around today and can see lots of stone chip impact points on the condenser, see below. My understanding is the condenser is...

Hi, I have been washing my B8.5 from hand car washes but would prefer to start washing the car myself soon. Does anyone have recommendations of the best products to use? As currently I have a old jet wash and that's it. Also, I have not yet conditioned the leather in my car. Does anyone have...

I've got a weird problem, the DAB radio signal in my B8.5 has become very poor. The car has been parked for 2 days (which is unusual), those two days include when the clocks changed over. Not sure if this is related, but once I got back in the car I noticed I would lose DAB radio signal in...

Hi all, need a little help. I had an unfortunate incident where my car managed to clip the mirror of another on a blind turn, he was driving in the middle of the road as there were idiots parked on the corner blocking the road and our cars met right on the blind bit. Left me with the following...

I bought my B8.5 several months ago, it was a huge upgrade from my previous first car, a 12 year old VW Polo. I used to do 100 miles a day in the Polo and although it was a extremely reliable car, there were many issues with it when you start doing motorway driving in it. For example, the AC...

I am curious to find out what to make of the DPF Oil Ash Volume as it is the only part of the DPF that just builds up over time to the point that eventually the DPF will need replacing. I've seen many values, it seems on average the oil ash value is similar to every 1000 miles the car has done...

Anyone know where to buy a pollen filter for a A4 B8.5 and exactly where it is located? EDIT: When I looked this up it's almost as if this car has two pollen / cabin filters? There seems to be one in the engine bay (right next to the windscreen) and another under the front passenger seat?

I've had my B8.5 for a couple months now and it's my first diesel car, yesterday I jumped out of the car only to be smacked in the face with a whoosh of hot air and I noticed the vehicle fan was still on even though the engine was off, I had only driven around 5 miles (doing shopping run) so I...

Hi, I'm looking at retrofitting a space saver wheel onto my B8.5 Audi A4 Saloon. I have found a donor car (B8.5 Audi A4 Estate) which has one, I'm not sure of the tyre markings because the wheel is inside the donor car but I do have a picture of the part number which is as follows: From that...

Anyone know whether the passenger mirror automatically tilting (while reversing) is a standard feature or optional extra on the A4? I have a SE Technik (so pretty well kitted out) and the manual is really badly worded so I can't really understand how to get it to work or whether it is even...
