Hi all, just wondered if anybody had experienced any issues when adjusting headlights manually. I did a clear lens conversion (big thanks to T8ups) on my AFS bi-xenons yesterday and went to raise the height of the beam on my driver side headlamp. Managed to max it out on height as it began...

My car is going in for bodywork/respray work pretty much all corners of the car this Friday. Just wondering if I need to do anything prior to handing it in. The paint technician certainly hasn't asked me to do anything in particular. But my plan was to give it a good wash and dry and take some...

Anybody recognise the exhaust tips in this video clip? I'm after this sort of fit on my A4 too. I currently have 3.5" round slashed tips (as pictured below) rotated at 90 degrees either side to try and match the profile of the rear valance. Not sure if they're just sitting too low and...

So I've recently got hold of a '93 MR2 for cheap off a mate who was gonna scrap it anyway. It needs a bit of work doing on it and I'm planning on selling up once I've fixed it up (month or two). The exhaust setup is how I got the car. It has a Remus motorcycle silencer hanging at the back and...

As some of you may know, I ordered a set of MTEC drilled and grooved discs with Mintex pads as my brake pad warning light was getting annoying. Strangely enough, the pads seemed to have plenty of life in but turns out the circuit breaker is quite conservative on my original pads (not had a look...

Having an issue with my headlamp washers not working. I actually went and bought a brand new washer pump to replace it with from TPS. Turns out I bought the pump for the windscreen washer jets (have to sell it now as I can't return electrical items apparently). Anyway, I checked the resistance...

Need some urgent help here as the noise is driving me nuts! :sos: Not sure if anybody else here has had this issue before, but long story cut short there are some plastic jewellery "stones" stuck in between my windscreen and dash. They slide around during cornering and is driving me insane LOL...

:mad: My car was supposed to have a new windscreen fitted at National Windscreens on Saturday morning. Dropped the car off and got a phonecall about 40 minutes later saying they can't get the wiper arms off! They refused to use their wiper removal tool on the driver side arm due to the fact...

So I wanna get my windows tinted in the near future, but unfortunately I have an OCD ad the passenger side windows have some scratches on them which I know will show up like a sore thumb once the film is applied. Also the front driver side has been replaced before and no longer has the Audi...

So I've been contemplating this for a while now and finally managed to get round to doing it in the end. Went to MIJ Performance in Walsall. Heard both good and bad things about them but I bit the bullet and was more than pleased with the results! The boys did a fantastic job and their tig...

In a bit of a dilemma here. I'm looking at getting my windows tinted sometime soon but there are a few scratches on my rear passenger side window. Obviously these would be highlighted when the tint is applied. My question was, would it work out cheaper for me to replace it through insurance...

Gonna be doing a bit of work to my brakes in the near future so thought I may invest in some braided brake hoses for better pedal feel. Wanted to get the HEL ones but they don't list one for the saloon only the avant. Do the saloon and avant have the same brake setup? Something gives me the...

Hi there everyone, would be grateful for your opinions, advice and suggestions on this one as well as if there are and legal side of things I should be aware of too (not too great with all that stuff). So last weekend I went up to Manchester with a few friends and cousins to celebrate one of...

Couldn't find a thread on this so thought I'd start one. Anybody going to this? Used to attend with UK-MKIVs when I had my Mk4 Golf and was quite a good laugh. GTI SPRINGfest 1/4 mile is £25 for unlimited runs and really good fun too. "Dizzy Rascal" event is free and also a good laugh...

Was hoping some of you 8P guys could offer some advice. I'm quite mechanically minded myself but struggling a bit with this one. So my mate has a 3dr 8P A3 Sport 2.0 TDI 140 DSG, and decided it would be a good idea to do a left hand down handbrake turn on ice over the weekend just gone and...

Not sure what section this belongs in but this seemed the most appropriate to me. Took my car for a full service on Saturday (convenient for me as I work during the week). Just wanted to say what a brilliant experience I had, as the staff and manager (Chris) were so friendly and helpful they...

So I'm pretty sure something isn't right or they may be a fault somewhere but any comments are welcome as always. I have auto lights (factory fitted) with the bi-xenons on my B7. I'm pretty sure the AUTO symbol shown in the image below used to permanently illuminate orange/yellow when in auto...

Anybody know if there is any variations between the B7 rear lights i.e. SE vs S-Line? I'm looking for a right rear replacement for my S-Line saloon as its tinted (for some strange reason) and don't want to end up getting the wrong part. Thanks in advance, Azeem.

My rear offside tail light has started to have a build up of condensation within the housing and also the lens appears smoked for some reason. Anyway it requires replacing but I was thinking of upgrading them to LED style to give the rear end more of a modern look to as I already have pressed...

Not sure how many of you have them, but I had my pressed plates delivered from DTUK (excellent service) the other day. Going to attempt to fit them later on today so fingers crossed it all goes well. I have a spare number plate surround (plain black) lying around and was wondering whether or...
