    Software update

    Car runs same as before. Just drinks like a v8 now. But surely part of the software update procedure should be to check the health of the car prior to making changes like that.

    Software update

    Yea that maybe something to look at. But literally went from what I'm used to the absolute garbage when I picked it up from audi. Only had it done 28th of November and burnt through a tank and a half already. Averaging 35mpg on the motorway where as before was around 50 to 52. Wish didn't get...

    Software update

    Hi all No doubt this has been covered but can't find much on it. As the owner of a 2.0tdi 170 quattro was pretty disappointed with the fuel economy before the update. But it seems since the update I'm struggling to even get close to 300miles. typically 250-270 miles on a tank even with...

    advice required 2.0tdi issues

    Can someone tell me the specs for the common rail pressures. There's a rapid fluctuation during rough idle compared to smooth idle. Wondering if it's an issue with the fuel pressure regulator.

    Tyres

    I've not had the B8 long so this will be the first tyre change on it for me. Maybe the michelin super sports are a bit softer and Wear quicker.

    Tyres

    I know that's what I thought but I've had that checked out and it's fine. Although the wear is less on the B8 compared to the B6 I had. Just seem to wear quicker on the outside edges than anywhere else. Literally the fist inch of the outside goes bold before the rest wears to the indicators...

    Glovebox damper

    Yea I'll give it ago. Just wondered if someone had been there done it got the t shirt and it stayed successfully repaired. Or if a new glovebox is the only achievable option.

    Glovebox damper

    Hi anyone experienced the bracket on the glove box hinge snap off that connects it to the damper? I've not had it apart yet but is it an easy fix or a pain and dent to the wallet. Obviously the glove box light won't work without it attatched. Cheers
