Just wanted to see if this is possible. I hate it, wife hates it, and let's be fair 10k miles a year from a 1.4 saving the environment is not going to be one of its defining moments. All its gonna do is wreck the starter motor and battery. So, can it be coded out or better still just flip the...

Hi, New to the A1 forum but not Audi Sport. I've had an 8L 1.8t Sport, A4 TFSI and still VAG at least Golf Gt tdi and now this little beauty. Picked it up last night for a smidge over £9k. One lady owner, 64k, 2012,Sport, auto dim mirror :), cruise, S Tronic, only thing missing is heated seats...

Looking at buying an A1, budget is around or just below the 10k mark, which means a 2012 car I think. Wife has just passed her test and auto only, hence the title. I obviously want the 150bhp 1.4 TFSI. I don't think I want diesel again, sound horrible and my 2.0 Golf GT TDi just died on me oil...

I have a 2l tdi mk5 Golf and want the R32 as I've dropped from 20k miles a year to about 10k. Yes, buying an R32 would be so much easier but my spec is great, and the only thing missing is a tuneful engine. I don't want a turbo 2l, been there done that and got the bill for a tfsi fail...

Back in the land of VAG. It has Pioneer sat nav HU but no cd or sd card. I presume it needs one of those to work. The follow map work but no destinations apart from the previous owner. Before I shell out on a cd does anyone know what I need for it to work. Needs glow plugs, tyres and manifold...

Need to update my signature, sold my A4 in December :( Needed to get a run around before I buy 'new' or newer than I've ever bought before. Just don't have the time or inclination to be under the bonnet all the time, so looking at leasing or financing a Nissan Note (I know I know, sorry). But...

Any ideas what is the best route to take, preferably diy not getting a company to refurb?

This isn't a sale thread although I understand if it gets deleted but I have no intention of selling yet I just want to hear from enthusiasts how much I could get for my car. A4 tfsi 2.0 petrol 2wd 2005 It's an se... 127k on clock New rebuilt bgb engine in October everything replaced cam belt...

I've Googled the living daylights out of this and still can't quite figure it out. I have a SE b7 and it has phone buttons on the steering wheel and in the arm rest is a cradle for a phone made in 2005 presumably. Does this mean that it doesn't have bluetooth? My phone doesn't find any device...

Just so I'm not making a mistake thought id ask to double check. Misfire on cylinder two. Flashing ecu light. Car is rough as hell. Pulled the maf sensor made no difference. So it's Coilpacks? Will call Audi tomorrow and see if the recall was done. Am I still entitled to it? The last posts I...

A Audi. I brought. I brought a Audi. Looks and sounds stupid doesn't it. That's because it's wrong. I make typos on this stupid phone sometimes but it drives me nuts when I see so many people on here and other UK forums say "I brought a". No foreigners say brought and yet all of the racists...

Hi all Having been a TFSI owner for exactly a month, it died on me yesterday. No dash lights, no EML, just knocking and juddering. Managed to get the 50ft to my mate's MOT garage who is gonna look at it this week, but reckons it's better to swap out the engine for a 2nd hand one and rebuild the...

Hi Thought I'd make a thread for my car. Having been on the A3 8L board for 2 years, I've switched to the B7 fraternity. Here it is: Bought in August 2014 for a princely sum...ie. about a grand less than others on the market were so had to snap it up. Sold my A3 for exactly what I paid for...

I didn't think it would be long before I posted something wrong with my car :) 2005 A4 2.0TFSI Did 700 miles the other day so not exactly a short journey, parked up overnight and tried to start it the next morning, flickering hazards/dash lights and no starting, the alarm battery (I presume)...

Hi all, I've been on the A3 8L board for almost two years and am completely sold on the Audi brand, which is why I went for the B7 next. I was planning on getting a B5 S4/A6 All-Road just for the 2.7T engine, but I couldn't resist the pull of the slightly newer car - which is very unlike me as...

I'm selling the A3 tomorrow,bought an A4 B7 2.0 TFSI. Not as fast as the A3 which I had mapped in June but there is a map for the new car planned. Wanted to say thank you to everyone and thanks for all of the awesome threads on here which have saved me time, money and the step by step guides...

I was driving on a dual carriageway yesterday and went to accelerate off one of the roundabouts in 2nd gear gear when it quickly went into limp mode. Wasn't driving hard as had the wife and baby in the car. Managed to pull over, the tc and stability lights were on. Limp mode was keeping isle at...

Hi I took my car to an air con place and they said it had a leak and needed a new condenser and compressor ( and something else but can't remember). Was quoted 400 quid....my car us probably only worth 600 in reality so I was thinking in getting a scrap condenser and compressor but wondered if...

Tempted to get an A4, was wondering what the pros and cons are on the 2.7 or 3l diesel? Thought I'd ask the experts :-)

Having a bit of a dilemma with my 8l. I fix it, something else breaks and so on. Most of my posts have been problems with my car and having just spent a few hundred quid on it I don't know weather it's worth keeping it or breaking it and get more money? I'm not afraid of old cars, I've only...
