    Agreed, I wouldn't put any money their way if this is how they treat potential customers

    It's weird that even a polite brush off is too much effort for these companies

    emissions fix

    A few friends of mine removed the DPF, well hollowed them out, on their DS3 diesels, they smoked like old style diesels after having it done - one even ended up with black emissions all over the back of the car. I can't understand how the smoke test in an MOT wouldn't see this - we could when...

    emissions fix

    So does the cheat software only affect cars that are less than three years old ? Isn't the point that if you don't have it done it will still pass the MOT as the software is still in place ? I've not read anything about the MOT tests or systems being updated to detect VAG cars with the cheat...

    emissions fix

    My wife has a 2012 1.6 A1 diesel and the letters she's received so far suggest a different type of fix than for the other diesels that cheated the emissions tests. So much so that Audi were promising to develop the fix by the end of the year, nothing yet but I'll be interested to see what they...

    emissions fix

    Owners can't be forced to pay more in road tax because Audi cheated the emissions. That would be a call for compensation for sure :)

    Why do I have to keep topping up my coolant?

    I have no experience of Audi diesels - I previously owned a Citreon DS3 and an Astra that were both diesels and neither ever required top ups of the coolant. How much are you topping up each time ? If it were me I'd get it looked at - is it still under warranty ?

    TTRS Rotor copy's.

    Is the white corrosion not covered by Audi under warranty (assuming there is no other damage e.g. kerb strikes) ? I previously had a Citroen DS3 and had three wheels replaced under warrnaty within 3 years due to white corrosion on the diamond cut parts of the wheels.

    How do you keep your brake discs clean?

    I used E-Tech paint on my previous car's callipers and it lasted over two years with no issues before I traded it in.

    Holy Grail? :) Front Splitter Company - genuine interest only please

    I've seen Triple R on my previous car forum, my impression was that they are v busy (as others said in this thread) and they can take a long time, a very long time to be able to create new splitters etc. The owner is so busy he rarely replies to emails etc....
