    Rear Trailing Arm / Control Arm Bushes - Approx Labour Time

    I need to get my rear trailing arm bushes (the ones that are in the hub) changed but having nowhere to do it myself at the moment I think I'll take it to a garage to get sorted. Can the bushes be changed without taking the hub off? One garage I spoke with quoted approx. 3 hours labour because...

    Looking For Shortened Front Drop Links? OEM Solution

    I was recently looking for shortened drop links as the FK ones on my car failed. Instead of waiting for some from FK from Germany which was going to take well over a week, I found that W639 Merc Vito drop links could be used instead. They're approximately 220mm with an M12 stud so worked...

    Rear Tie Arms and Rear Diff Questions

    My rear tie arm recently snapped. When it snapped it must have pulled the shaft out of the rear diff because it leaked all its fluid over the road. Fortunately the car was stationary and didn't move with the empty rear diff. If I am going to change the rear tie bar how tricky is it? Is it...

    Installing Rear Tweeters - Where?

    I've installed front component speakers into the doors, and the rear mid/bass component into the standard speaker hole in the rear door cards. I've still got to install my rear tweeters but am unsure where to put them. I don't mind cutting the doorcards as they can fit flush I think. Has anyone...

    Where's the best place to get some new CV boots? Are patterns any good or are the OEM ones best? Can I use S3 or TT boots on my A3 Quattro? Thanks

    DIS Addon

    This looks decent, maybe not as good as a standalone gauge if boost is all you're after. Obviously looks much more OEM than a liquid gauge. Radar detector compatibility to display it on the DIS! FIS-Control OBD

    TDI was cutting out, now cambelt failure - Any ideas on what caused it?

    I recently changed my PD130's cambelt and waterpump and all the associated tensioners. I locked the cam and changed it all without any problems. I plugged in VAG-COM and it said the timing was spot on. The problems all started when I would be driving, and if I coast to some lights or put the...

    Brake problem - Audi dealer can't bleed them even

    After a rear brake pipe split I replaced it which I thought would cure my no brakes problem. I then bled them. The brakes worked ok-ish but only towards the bottom of the pedal. I took it to Audi who tried to bleed them and they couldn't, they said they'd done the master cylinder and the...
