As far as I remember it has been. If I am heavy on the throttle on and off though it will jerk back and forward

Mine actually does that but only if I am heavy with taking my foot on and off the throttle. In traffic I just drive easy on the peddle and it seems fine.

Thanks mate I will do. Seeing as it scanned and came up with just the EGR value. Why would they say I need to replace the NOx sensor as well? Are they trying to pull a fast one...?

Just a quick update..I called out the AA as they can scan my car for the codes and it came up with: P0403 - EGR Control. That is the only thing that came up so I don't know why I was told it is the nox sensor as well. I'm just lost at the moment

argh.. I see I see. I didn't think this would be a huge job as the labour quoted was only 2 and a half hours..but the parts seem to be expensive.. Anyone else out there to help? lol

I seem to have nothing but problems with my A3 so just wanted some advice. My engine management light came on yesterday, but the cars run fine with no problems. Still.. I took it in and got it scanned at Volks Autos and they said that the NOX sensor and EGR valve need replacing, which I've...

I was checking all the fluids in my car earlier today and just checked under the car for the sake of it, and there was a slight spot of oil. Checked my oil and its fine, but I snapped a photo to see where it was coming from and found this... I don't know much about engines, but this is the...

I appreciate the replies! Turned out to be the fuel pipes rattling against the body housing. Quick fix from my local garage. Glad it was nothing serious!

Recently this rattle has just come out of no where. I'm not sure what it could be.. Its only when I accelerate or keep it around 1000rpm that it makes this noise. When the car is cold, theres no sound of the rattle at all, only when it has warmed up. It doesnt affect the way the car drives, but...

All sorted, had the connections under the seats replaced. Quick fix luckily! Thanks for your help though

Looks good mate! How did you get on with the plasti dip when you did the single grill look? I'm looking to do mine but dont want to mess anything up! Did you remove the bumper or just spray it straight on.

Thanks for the replies. I checked the wiring under the seat and they seem to be fine and havnt been pulled out. :shrug:

Last week my battery was pretty much dead, at the time of this I had a lot of friends getting in and out of my car moving the passenger seat backwards and forwards and when I started the car the Air Bag light came on and hasnt gone off since. I had a friend scan my car and it came back with the...

I only just picked up my car from having my cylinder head replaced due to a crack.. and on the way back the car started shuddering. I pulled over, turnt the engine off and back on again..and its fine. The engine light came on until I got home. I then turnt it off and back on again and now the...

Quick update, the cars back in the garage and yesterday they said its pointing to the head gasket but they have done a sniffer test and compression test and these are coming up fine. I got a call this morning saying that they are going to put a new thermostat in as it could be that. Do...

Thanks for replying, ok ok I see, well that makes sense but the k seal has just got me scratching my head. Unless there trying to cover up that there is a leak in the head gasket. I just don't know!

I took it in and just got back. Apparently there was a loose clip on the rad which I was a bit "hmm" about. Also I just checked the coolant as they topped it up and k seal has been put in it ....... I said why would you do that, and he said just for peace of mind. Really? And mike I'm not sure...

Just a follow up. I had my radiator replaced by the garage as it was leaking. Only problem now is the coolant dropped almost back down to minimum a week later. I topped it up about a week ago, it dropped slightly, but now seems to be ok. Funny thing is, yesterday it was on max. And I went for...

Sorry I was meant to say the leak was in the top left of the radiator. But thanks

Ok ok, thanks for that mate. Hopefully they will sort it all out tomorrow
