Yet another problem has occured with my tdi, now when I try to start it especially when cold, it takes lots of turning over before it finally fires up, but then there is a big cloud of smoke from the exhaust and lumpy tick over for 30 seconds or so. After that its fine and carrys on with its...

I've been having problems with my A3 for a while now http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/showthread.php?t=64334 I decided to just cut my losses and trade it in as I don't have the spare cash to throw at it at the mo as we are going to be moving away soon, but it seems its only worth around £1500 and...

We have a 110bhp tdi and it suffers from the over boost problem, I had it checked by a garage and they said it could be a number of things, of which all have been covered on here too. My theory is, if there was a fault with the turbo would it not cut out every time it reaches a certain...

I bought a Dension Icelink off ebay, went to instal it thinking it would be a straight forward job only to find there are 3 or 4 plugs on the back of my head unit. Which one do I need to unplug to fit into the Dension adaptor part? Also I read on here that you need to download something from...

Is it possible to fit the roller type parcel shelf from an A4 into an A3? I have a dog guard in the back of my A3, but it also means I can't leave anything in the boot because the original shelf won't fit now. Or can you get an aftermarket roller shelf?

I've been having intermitant faults with my ABS for a while now, and with my MOT due in a couple of weeks I needed to get it sorted so the light wasn't on on the dash. I checked all the usual stuff and wiggled a few fuses and this seemed to cure it for a while, so I assumed it was just a loose...

I bought some new wheels for my Tdi under the impression they would be a straight swap, but have now found that I need pcd adaptors to convert to 5x112. The guy I bought them off had an S2 estate and they looked sweet on it and just filled the arches nicely. I rang Venom and asked thier advice...

Is it possible to convert/adapt my standard hubs to 112?

How much can I lower my tdi without having to get a different arb? I plan on going 40mm front and back, will I get away with keeping the standard arb?

My MOT is due next month and I know my suspension won't pass, along with various bushes that are screwed. I have a 99 tdi sport that I use every day and do a fair few miles in and is currently all standard. What I'd like to know is what people can recomend. I don't want to spend to much, but...

Driving to work the other day my car appeared to go into limp mode, I checked it over and all seemed fine and it was fine when I drove it home. Yesterday it did it again, so I turned the engine off and back on and it was fine again. Also yesterday my ABS light came on so I got the fault codes...

I've read up on the whole dodgy volume control thing and realise mine is shagged and I'm pretty pi**ed off about it, but never mind. My question is, will this head unit...

I'm after an ipod or similar to replace the multi changer in my car. Can anyone suggest a good mp3 player/ipod and also a good way to connect it to my stereo as a replacement for the cd changer. Thanks.

I just fitted a new set of headlights with angel eyes, I've had them aligned by a garage but last night while out driving I found them to be crap on low beam. There seems to be a big V shaped shadow along the top edge of the light pattern so the light just stops, and its right where you look...

I just bought a set of new headlights with the angel eyes in them, the wiring is fairly self explanitory, but I was just wondering is it possible to use the headlight adjusting motor on aftermarket lights and also what is the small push-in bulb for in the corner, and the 2 leds just below them...

Can anyone help me out of the **** sharpish please??? I am in desperate need of a front wiper linkage, mine is broken beyond repair it would seem, so now I have no wipers and they say the weather is going to start to turn wet tomorrow... I have a spare front wiper motor if anyone wants to do...

I've got 2 questions, tried doing a seacrh but cant find what I'm after. 1. My headlights are fairly *****, is this common on A3's? High beam is ok, but low beam is almost dangerous I think. I am thinking about getting a HID conversion, but at the moment £££ a little thin so I need a cheaper...

I noticed yesterday after only a short trip that the radiator fan was on after I turned off the engine, the engine temp was in the normal place so I didnt think too much of it with the weather being hot. When I got to work this morning it was on again, even after the 20 mile drive at 50+ mph...

Only had my A3 for a couple of weeks and today it died and won't start again. I got the AA to tow it home but he wasn't sure what the problem was. I called an auto electrician out and he took the fault codes from the machine he plugged in: 17762 17970 17971 The car is a '99 A3 TDi sport 110...

I have a '99 black 3 door tdi sport with standard wheels on, they look gash and let the look of the whole car down imo. I've searched on here and other sites but can't find any inspiration. There is a guy down the road from me with an dark green A/S4 (I think, the one with a boot?) with RS8...
