    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    I managed on the 2.0tfsi just with just the bonnet open. 19m spanner to move the tensioner, Allen key to hold it in place. Then a bit of knuckle skin, some swearing and a 30 cm ruler and you can get belts off and on without moving anything else. Fairly easy.

    Birthday gift to myself. Two new OEM rear lights as the current ones are cracked and crazed.

    Good cheap scanner?

    I have a Carly and it seems to detect most things. Can reset fault codes etc and turn on features. Wasn’t daft expensive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    As the weather is dry and the sun is out tomorrow i have wheeled the A4 out f the garage, taken the cover off, and gone out for a drive. I have missed it! It brings me much more joy than the more modern cars we have! No problems driving today but one thing has made we wonder about how long...

    Trying to find a rear boot handle / switch / light carrier for my cabriolet. It’s supposed to be the same as the avant BUT it seems the aftermarket versions, that are plentiful in eBay etc, do not fit as the bit highlighted below that carries the wiring hits the bodywork… So, does anyone...

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Following up from the diagnosis that I got when the car was serviced with Audi. They advised that one of the rear parking sensors was faulty and offered to replace it for £800…. So I have bought one from eBay and will have a crack at taking the rear bumper off this weekend and replacing the...

    One of our neighbours took his v12 on a three week European tour to the Italian lakes and back late last summer. I believe it performed faultlessly - although I know it was tuned up the day it set off as the whole village heard it! Just lovely. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Brads A4 B7 DTM progress thread

    Ah now that is smart! Covers all the gubbins beautifully. Is there a part number on it by chance?? Also, how are you fixing the right hand side cover in? I have heard people say they have just jammed it in but I think I’d like some fixings on it…. Thanks!

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Oil change - looks like they dropped most of it in the bottom of the engine bay - MOT where they put advisory about chipped windscreen (not that I can see!) and some other advisory nonsense about being unable to carry out full inspection because engine and body covers fitted?! Something that was...

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    This has just arrived so I will test fit in a while…. Tomorrow is oil change, brake fluid change and new spark plugs along with MOT…. Which should be fine, but fingers firmly crossed nonetheless…!

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Thanks for that. I managed to find genuine one on eBay for £49. Not cheap but then this is a labour of love and not necessarily sense…...

    Don’t suppose you have the part number for the engine bay cover on the rhs do you? Very smart!

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    I ran Toyos on an older 911 and they were grippy but they did wear (very) quickly. Currently got a set of Michelin Latitude Sports which seem very grippy but are noisy but then they are 265 fronts and 295 on the rear. Too early to tell how long they’ll last. Only brand I’d never buy again...

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Ive got Eagles in the A4 Cab and I do like the lip they have to protect the alloy. The SQ5 had Continentals and they worked really well. Not too noisy either. Talking of which, I’m dropping the car off and getting 4 wheels refurbished next week. It’s a place that Swisstony recommended so I...

    B7 Mini-meet, who's up for it.

    Sounds good, depending on dates and weather! Only 44 miles from me [emoji6] (Work is ramping up and I’m now travelling in Oct and Nov a fair bit as a result but will endeavour to make it in the A4).

    Rob's B7 old bus engine upgrade project.

    Are you doing the cam chain as preventative or as an upgrade? And the fuel pump top hat, is that the hpfp one that runs off the cam? I’m trying to work out what essentials I need to do to mine to ensure longevity…. Done the belt and water pump… Thanks!
