Is it right to assume that it is most likely an air leak as the water level seemed to return back to the minimum level when the pressure was released from the filler cap?

sounds like a dealer job? or can someone else do it for a bit cheaper?

Hi Guys, 2006 A3 TDi - BKD with 90,000mi Read quite a few of the coolant posts on here but I am not entirely sure might is losing any coolant... basically driving on the motorway about a week ago the light came on so I stopped off and saw that the level was just slightly below minimum. Then...

Anyone know a good cheap remapper in london?

Do you think it is worth finding somewhere to do the 4 wheel alignment using that hunter system? or will AMD Essex do the trick? Are they reliable for remaps as well?

I am in Grove Park but obviously willing to travel. How much would you charge just to have a look and steer me in the right direction?

Hi Guys, I have had a strange clunking/knocking noise coming from the suspension or steering gear for a while now and just cannot figure it out. I am not too well versed in the suspension system but am confident enough to give it a go to fix. It seems to arise when turning right and/or when...

Ordered a new headlight unit - hopefully will do the trick, it is very annoying having one light brighter than the other. Has anyone else had this problems at all??

Hi guys, I failed MOT on a dodgy beam pattern for one headlight and I was thinking of upgrading my standard a3 headlights (2006 2.0TDi) to something a bit nicer. Any idea which ones would fit and be reasonable priced? Cheers Seenan

Hi guys, Failed MOT on my '06 a3 2.0 TDi BKD over the weekend on Tue and headlight beam pattern. Now I had a knock in it months ago where I hit a curb pretty hard and burst tyre and took a small chunk out of alloy and I have noticed that one headlight is brighter than other and that is the...

hanks for the info Rick, I was a bit confused as to how blanking off the egr can cause so much of an increase in power. However I have read that installing a race pipe and stopping recycling of the exhaust gasses can make the engine breathe better? I have looked for the throttle body to replace...

Hi - I have a similar question on my BKD 2.0 TDI whereby I wanted to map and egr delete at the same time. However, the MIL is showing up and the fault code reported is 19557 - Motor for Intake Manifold Flap (V157). Now I need to MOT the vehicle as it has been sat for a few months and I wanted to...

Cool thanks for clearing that up - what is your opinion on the EGR delete kits? I saw one recently that offered the remap as well (cant remember who it was now, d'oh). Do you think it is worth getting rid of the EGR - will it make much of difference to the performance? Do you do remaps by the...

i thought the IMF connects to the egr and provides the air for the egr? Is it also related to the anti-judder valve? Because at the min my car does shake a bit when idling now and then. Would you not advise going with one of the EGR delete kits?

Hi Guys, I recently got a local member to run the VCDS vagcom on my 2.0 TDI A3 and the following codes came up: Address 01: Engine Labels: 03G-906-016-BKD.lbl Part No SW: 03G 906 016 FF HW: 028 101 190 5 Component: R4 2,0L EDC G000SG 7364 Revision: 12345678 Serial number: AUX7Z0F0FNJ0EZ...

Thanks to DeckedS3 - now I know for sure that its the EGR - well actually the "motor for inlet manifold flap"

ohh sorry that is someone's profile - i was looking at the wrong info

hmm interesting Sandra - is that just an open forum to find people in the local area?

Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone nearby in Tunbridge Wells or anywhere in Kent might have a proper fault code reader just so I can find out what the engine management light is on for and thus what to do next? I have asked around and checked a bit and it seems it is probably the EGR but wanted...

Have any of you guys had much experience with the "eliminate EGR" kits? Do they improve performance but sacrifice fuel economy? Will it make a difference to emmisions values for MOT? Hard to install? Also anyone of you guys near tunbridge wells or in kent at all?
