    Gap Insurance

    Collected my new A4 last Friday. The dealer offered me gap insurance for a further £320 for three years. I can't make up my mind whether to take it or not. I understand the benefits that it could bring, which would be much greater than £320, however I was wandering what other people think...

    Chrome tail pipes

    The only disadvantage of going for a diesel rather than a petrol engined A4 is the chrome tail pipes on the exhauts that are only on the petrol engined cars. Although the tail pipes on the diesel car point down the way, I was wandering if anybody could point me in the direction of chrome tail...

    Wheel Bearings

    Anybody got any experience replacing wheel bearings on an S3? I have noticed a grinding noise when the car is moving and suspect the wheel bearings, however can anybody suggest something else that may be causing the noise. My S3 is just over 3 years old, with 34,000 miles on the clock...

    ESP Warning Lamp

    Every so often, the ESP warning lamp illuminates when I start my car from cold and stays on, which would indicate some sort of fault to me. The lamp goes out if the engine is stopped and started again. My dealer had a look at it, but said that there were no faults recorded. My warranty is due...
