  1. Quick up date , all is fitted It took about 5 hours , I haven't managed to fit the enclosure fully yet few adjustments needed the instructions aren't the best , the sound improvement however is brilliant. So would definitely recommend.

  2. Hello Marco, Absolutely what you don't want. If it were mine, I would want to get this to a trusted independent. Anyone able to advise Marco of one in his area? Spend once and wisely in terms of both parts and labour. Parts - I would go for LUK if not using genuine VAG. Any other aftermarket make- ?? I really hope you can get out of this with the minimum of extra hassle. Kind regards, Gareth.

  6. My whole dash pod needs replacing Trevor as everything's gone to !Removed! on it. Audi only deal with genuine parts so putting a cheap one in will be no good as Audi will need to reprogram it all. Spoke to lots of "Audi specialist" as they call themselves and the price Audi is charging is pretty bang on. Still not wanting to pay for a manufacturing fault on a 6 year old car 😂 Should never have gone after only 6 years in my opinion xx will keep you posted 😊

  9. Appreciating your point Darren, but I think it would be good to at least encourage Marco to follow all avenues of redress, and if it fails - well at least - good try. Any sale hinges on description vs. actual condition. Without some positives, I feel Marco is going to be left with a car he cannot use, and one where the economics work that it's not worth getting someone to repair it. Anyone in his area who might help out? - wherever in "England" he is! Where are you Marco? I wish him good luck. Kind regards, Gareth.

  10. Heres a couple of pics of my A5 tdi quattro, few mods done but not finished. Remapped to 207 bhp, silicone intercooler hoses, induction filter, H&R 40mm lowering kit, front strut brace, rear carbon fibre duck bill boot spoiler. Not quite sure what's next

  12. find a driving style that keeps the needle in the middle. you might find that high revs dont do it. low down torque up a decent incline, i.e. 5th gear up hill might get those temps up better. nailing it round your local streets wont help but stretching the gears on entry to a motorway will

  14. Hello Huw, Where on earth do a I start? Good question since the simple circuits of years ago have been supplemented by control units which control things we would ever have thought of. By what you say, it could be reasonable to suspect the indicator stalk, but as Trevor says any of the associated contacts - including the earth of 'what on earth!' may be at fault. Not being one to give up on DIY cures, but access to curcuit information, metering equipment and experience of such issues on certain models are really essential requirements. Let's hope someone might come up with a solution, but if not, sometimes a hour of an auto electrician's time might be a wirthwhile consideration. Not sure what part of S. Wales you are from, but there is a good one man band auto electrician in Bridgend - of course there will be others. Hoping you get some more advise on how to cure it. Kind regards, Gareth.

  16. Hi Huw....welcome to the Forum My first thoughts are battery condition...if the battery is on its way out then this can cause similar issues. Easy to check with a deep discharge test to confirm. Otherwise, its worth checking the electrical connectors under the steering column and try the 'wiggle test' with the ignition on to see if the lights display then. Keep us updated on what you find with this one. Cheers Trevor
