    Unluckiest C8 A6?

    I worry about that all the time, honestly I do. I drive past a banger garage near me, no car over £3000. Seriously thinking of getting a banger next time.

    Oil Temperature Rise

    I was driving down motorway at 70 on cruise (honest,officer) and watched the oil temp rise to a touch over 100. Had service recently but (electronic) oil level is OK. Before service , it kept to over 90, never more even on a thrash in hot weather. Coolant not touched in service only an oil...

    2021 Car Security - Ghost 2, Tracker+ or other?

    I don't want to seem dense ( I am ) but wouldn't your Audi App tell you where your car is if it was nicked ? Mine does.

    Where to buy these replica C8 RS6 alloys?

    Col, the rear tinting on your ( very smart) car, is it legal ? Looks a bit dark.

    Missing paint, anybody else got the same issue?

    But it's plastic anyway so what's the issue ? It's not a '67 Allegro, it's not going to corrode. The mechanic will get a bottle of dollop and rub it off. It will never see a proper bodyshop.

    Return to the green pump

    Audi have a funny idea about colours. If that's grey then I'm a monkey's uncle. It will be fast though. Mine got me 3 points in 6 months.

    Oil indication -- dipstick ?

    I am not convinced the virtual oil level display on the MMI is telling the truth, it is showing lower than it should just after an oil change. I spotted this just as I picked up the car from an Audi dealer oil change last week. I know what you're thinking and I did too ( that they hadn't filled...

    50 Tdi Sport service costs

    Yes it is good. Just been quoted for my first service cost of £472. Just for an inspection and an oil change ! At least **** Turpin wore a mask.

    Lane Assist

    No you are not, there is no fault with your car. Audi had to put this 'safety' feature on the car to get the maximum NCAP rating. This was from an interview I read with the Audi design team. It wasn't something they wanted to do, just they had to do it. It can be disabled to stay off by default...

    Sat Nav issues

    The fault is the same , Google or not.

    Sat Nav issues

    Anyone search for a town on the sat nav, then see the town pop up and when you click on it, it says destination not found. The other night, this was really important to me that I found somewhere ( Castleton, near Sheffield) as my daughter was panicking in severe snow , trying to get back to the...

    System doesn't load

    Don't mess with the battery, you could end up in a whole world of hurt.

    System doesn't load

    I get this about 50% of the time, it's very annoying. I have an iPhone 7 and I think it might be the phone and not the car, simply to do with signal strength. I did some tests and I think if the phone battery is low, it might be the cause. Don't take it as gospel. But either way the car is not...

    Keyfob Battery Change

    Bingo, thanks, Audidi. To all readers, do not follow the Audi manual method it sucks. Use a screwdriver and this video instead.

    Keyfob Battery Change

    Battery in ignition key is getting flat, I got a warning from car. Manual says remove emergency key ( easy, which I did ) and use that key to get to the battery by inserting it 'at an angle'. WTF ?? , no way anything moves or twists or slides using the emergence key. I feel a total numpty, can't...

    C8 Gearbox after recent Software Update - How does it compare?

    Presumably you are not going that fast when you turn ? Below 30 mph the rear wheels turn slightly but if it's front left I have never had that problem or noise. Mine is 2019 A6 TDi. I think it's dealer BS. Maybe the front wheel took a whack before you had it and the tracking may be badly out or...

    Recent Audi visit-- no gearbox update

    Took my 2019 50TDi in for an Adblue fault, which I posted earlier. Surprise, surprise no faults found, they said as a one-off gesture they would fill it up for free. Making out that I was a tool in a forgetting to top it up. But the car never asked me to, it gave me a different message. Spoke to...
