Hi, I'm a complete newby to this forum. I have a house in France and some years ago bought a left hand drive A6 in the UK at, what I thought was the right price. I've had it re-registered in France and have the official carte gris (the French equivalent of a V5) On applying for a two year Controle Technique (French MOT) I now find that the VIN number which the French authorities know the car by (is on carte gris) - shown on the base of windscreen, door pillar and boot sticker, is not the same as the VIN number stamped on the bulkhead. I have been told that i must now get the engine bay stamped with the number shown in the three places mentioned above. Has anyone had any similar experiences? Can I check anywhere for the two VIN numbers to check I've not got a 'cut & shut'. This is very annoying since I've been running this car (a 1993 model) for the last 10 years. French legislation has recently been tightened up.....

Hi im looking to buy a used audi a6 2015plate on finance (pcp) and was wondering what sort of deals did you guys get.

Hi there, I have a 1994 Audi Cabriolet, runs like a dream. On Saturday whilst driving at 60-70mph, I lost all power in the car. Came to a stop, safely thank god, and tried to restart it but was completely dead, as if I hadn't activated the immobiliser. 90 mins later when the recovery man arrived, it started fine and I drove it home. The next day, I was 2miles from home and it did it again, same thing happened, an hour later it started again. Am assuming its electrical or the immobiliser, but would it kick in whilst driving> If not, then any ideas on what sort of electrical problem this could be. Thank you

I've recently bought an Audi A4 (B8) and it has a Parrot CK3000 kit fitted but it needs updating so that I can use it. There are a few people offering to update them at a reasonable price on a well known auction site but it would mean pulling my dash apart to find the blue box, but I'm not entirely sure I want/how easy it is to do this if there is an alternative way of updating via Bluetooth or something?

I currently have Bridgestone RE050 for size 245/40/R18 93Y and have been pretty happy with them, though they came with the vehicle on purchase. Thinking of changing for a smoother ride and wondering about the Pirelli P7 Cintuaratos? Any one got experience of these - good/bad or any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
