    Brake fluid reservoir cover removal

    This black part covers the brake fluid reservoir, can it be easily removed? It just makes it awkward to see the fluid level in the reservoir. I've already removed the beauty plastic cover that fits on top of the engine.

    Turning the dash scales/needle lights on and off via VCDS

    In my Audi A4 B8, the needles in the dash illuminate fine with the lights off, but the scales behind the needles can hardly be seen. Everything all looks ok when the lights are switched on, but I don't want to drive with the lights on during the day. Has anyone been able to turn the scales on...

    Campaign for viewing areas at service/repair garages.

    https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/443756/#post-3827374 This link shows that most of these car repair garages are dishonest. Ticking the box, but not carrying out the work., etc. This is why the customer should have the option to see their car being serviced, or have a video of it, or a...

    Would you put an axle stand here?

    So with the front undertray removed, you get a better look at the subframe. Would the yellow axle stand safely support the weight of the car at that position on it's own? That silver/aluminium cross member seems to be part of the sub-frame. Your thoughts gents.

    Dash back light very poor - difficult to read fuel gauge

    During normal daylight hours the dash visibility is very poor. I can turn up the brightness of the speedo & fuel gauge needle, etc. so no problem there. However, the background of the dash is very hard to see, and I can't find a way to make that brighter. The net result is it is very difficult...
