Hi ppl

New Audi owner well from 2 years now!!!Audi A6 Allroad 2010,I'm partially happy about it cause for a premium car it could be better.Problem with manifolds and EGR!looks like the car did a lot of town!sorted,got a new problem the crankshaft pulley destroyed!!lost power steering and so on hopefully it happened while idle.If it was during driving on the motorway it could be catastrophic!!!!!!imagine loosing the steering control at 90mph!!!other than that done long trip to France,Germany,Switzerland,was alright!Kinda looking for some LED headlight for this car but looks difficult to find cause for changing the bulbs ,need to remove lot of stuff ,can't imagine a lady dismantling parts to change the bulbs!well it was poorly designed.Other than that hope will find good tricks and stuff here :-)

Your welcome :) 

thats a fair way to travel from portadown! 

My dad is from portadown originally :) and we go over a couple of times a year :)

im going to France and Belgium at the weekend. I'm assuming your aware of the new emissions stickers you have to have if your going near certain French cities such as Paris? 

If not, iv done a whole article on it under the toad trip section :) 

oh and the toll roads too, you need a transponder now for certain toll roads. 

Cheers
