    Rhyso's Posh Golf

    When I bought it about 4 years ago i thought it was pretty decent. It looks good in the dash and integrates with the phone and DIS etc. It never failed to get me to my destination :) Sold it for £375 as I wanted a quick sale

    Rhyso's Posh Golf

    Hi mate Not sure about the wheels for the A6. I'll decide when I actually collect it; waiting on the DVLA to sort the paperwork for the plate out as the A6 had a private plate on it Sold the satnav Sunday night to another member so that's gone already sorry Never swapped the suspension. I...

    Sticking Rear Caliper

    Probably quicker to just swap it out. My local garage stripped and cleaned both but it was to no avail :( Went for two refurbed units at £75 each as opposed to the £150 each Audi wanted

    Help: Sun shades / curtains SportBack

    I've had a set of them since I bought my A3 about 5 years ago and had a set of my Golf prior to that Does the job brilliantly and keeps the heat out of the back I use the rear window ones too as they block out far more light than the standard parcel shelf one :)

    PD or CR?

    The 1.9's didn't and neither did the PD 140's As mentioned ALL CR engines have DPF's; even the 1.6 diesels

    Very smelly diesel engine

    If the exhaust gases are escaping BEFORE they get to the exhaust then the logical place you will smell them is under the bonnet No fault codes simply mean that the fault doesn't exist near a sensor for it to get its knickers in a twist and throw up either a code or a management light

    Help! no power to glow plugs.

    Glow plugs are only used for starting the car. They are not a performance item hence why no loss of power The glow plug light flashing and your fault code go hand in hand. The light is used to indicate the fault Swap the switch and I'm 99% certain it will cure your problem :) the switch is...

    See if you are affected by the emissions scandal...

    I stand corrected then :) Lucky for the owners of the affected vehicles!! Personally if i had a car that was affected I wouldn't bother unless I had to in order to claim compensation Otherwise I don't see the point in wasting my time taking it to be detuned then mapped again!!

    Is my Engine Toast??

    Just knowing your consumer rights that a car has to be free from reasonable defect for up to 6 years........:)

    See if you are affected by the emissions scandal...

    Its it software then yes, kiss goodbye to your remap. Your tuner should be able to put it back om without issue though :) Unless VW / Audi also implement security protocols and lock the ECU....... Lots to consider, but there's no point worrying until more details about what the recall entails...

    Is my Engine Toast??

    Fair enough :) I'm stubborn and dig my heals in lol. That and my missus works for Trading Standards so that helps a bit.......... ;)

    Is my Engine Toast??

    This is a very common issue in MK6 Golf GTI's Great result on getting that contribution but to be fair Audi should be stumping up the full amount. At the end of the day its a manufacturing fault and not something you could prevent with servicing. The fact there is a revised part practically...

    Emissions Scandal - Audi UK Recall - If it happens and what if car already remapped.

    Nothing has been decided yet. VW are still looking at the technical side of it A decision is expected in next couple of weeks. Until then there's no point worrying about it. To be honest if your car is mapped and all the recall entails is a software update then I don't see the point?? If its...
