Hi, I have an issue that I hoping that this kind community could advise on. Yesterday, after leaving work I went to start my car (Audi A3 8P) and the key wouldn't turn in the ignition to start the car up. This is the first time that this has happened. I've had to leave the car in the carpark...

Last week I came back to my car parked on a slight hill where the car in front was resting against my front bumper (car facing up the hill), which has caused the fog light surround to pop out on one side. I've tried to push it back in but it just pops back out and I don't want to push it too...

I seen on forums that there was an 10 year extended warranty for some Audi's that had problems with the Manifold. I mainly seen this mentioned on american sites and I've seen vin checkers but it only checks american cars. I have a problem with the mainfold sensor and Audi want £600 to replace...

Yesterday, I went to drive my car and after starting I noticed the EPC light on and that there were no lights on my dashboard. The headlights seemed to work, but no dash lights. I tried starting the car a couple of times, the dash lights came on low once and then flickered off. About a month...

Hi, I went to get a valve change an a local tyre place as Audi wanted £40 and my locking wheel nut key ended up broken, with most of it inside the nut. How much am I looking for a replacement key/nut? Can I get these? should anybody have responsibility for this or is this one of those things...

Hi, I have an 2009 S-line. I reversed into a pillar in a car park , that has dented/cracked open my rear bumper a bit (as it hit next to the impact bar ) and cracked one of my lights. I've been around a few garages with 2 quoting me £200 and another saying to get a new bumper as it will just...

Hi, today while driving my car to work i noticed that when pressing the accelerator pedal that the slight boost I normally feel is missing and that I can put the pedal all the way to the floor without it feeling like it's there (boost) and the Rpms go up slowly. I have an auto or s-tronic A3...

Hello, I'm thinking of getting my windows tinted on my 3 door S-Line. I've had a search and most places recommended are out of London. I'm thinking of going for 20 or 30 percent tint. I know there's plenty of places but I want a good job done. I don't want it too dark where it affects things...

Hi I have a 58/2009 A3 and a VCDS. How do you activate the beep on locking with the VCDS. Is it the same for 8p2(2005 - 2008) and 8p3(58 - 2011)? If somebody could say what needs changed and to what it will be appreciated.

I've searched about how to fix a squeaky window as my window was like this when I bought the car (I didn't actually test it as it was raining and I forgot). I doubt it makes a difference but it's a 58 plate facelift. I've tried using anti bacterial wipes all along the window seals. That didn't...

I've just bought an 2008/9 A3 and the seller managed to hide/distract a boot leak from me, I was going to take the spare wheel out as I noticed some moisture on the wheel, he said it was just condensation. I forgot you had to screw the cap to take it out so when I pulled it didn't budge and he...

Wow, really bad day today. I was driving in really slow moving traffic. When I felt the engine sort of judder or shake more than usual. I looked for a side road to pull over, opened the bonnet and the engine was shaking harder than usual, the "Emission Control System" warning light was also...

I've wanted to remove the car phone from my car since I've got it but thought it would be to hard to do. If you try to use it, it also mutes music playing from the radio. I recently took out the glove box to replace the blower motor. Whilst I was doing that I saw the box for the car phone for...
