Hey Haz welcome to the forum :) im assuming this piece of trim runs along or below the sill? If so I believe it to be just cosmetic. Have you got any pics from further way? And is there any clear signs of damage to the bodywork or paintwork? Cheers steve

+1 for Travall I've just bought an '09 A6 Allroad and bought the full kit from them (boot liner, dog guard and centre divider) and its a great piece of kit - fits perfectly, well made and most of all - it doesn't rattle! Expensive but worth it in my opinion.

Hi All, After many years of being a serial Passat buyer I have defected over to Audi. I've just bought a 2009 A6 Allroad Quattro 3.0 TDI and am over the moon with it. I do however have a load of questions and I'm guessing this is the place to ask them!

Thanks Trevor - the sure fire way of finding out what the bracket is for is to bin it!!

Hi Simon....welcome to the Forum Great looking Audi :-) Sorry, can't help with the first two questions but I certainly wouldn't throw away the bracket as it may be vital to the car...or not but you won't know until the day when you need it, lol. The allroad setting, I would wait until the dealer has had a chance to look at it, but it may be something simple like the drivers door is open at the time and it won't feature until closed (like Range Rover, etc). Cheers Trevor

Hello Brian, Saving funds sounds a reasonable reason for posting on here, and I'm sure advice will be given where experience has shown that a DIY fix has proved practical. Local garage may be worth a visit, but I meant a local car sales site (unless your local garage sells cars as well). Reason being is that car sales survive by ensuring money spent on vehicles is kept to a minimum and so they build up a knowledge of where the best value for money specialists are. Local garage - well they can work on the principle that the customer pays, and their contacts can be more along the line of who can do it quickly and easily, but not necessarily at the best price. I hope you have some succes at a minimum spend Brian, but if not, keep in mind that little discussion you had with the seller in terms of knocking money off their asking price! Needs might just be must. Kind regards, Gareth.

Hello Brian, This isn't going to be the good news you are hoping for, but I too have tried all the methods I could find to reprogramme the remote on a 2006 A3, without any success. Mine stopped working due to a long period of inactivity, and as I now understand it, it's going to be half an hour out with a main dealer/independent and a plug into the computer to fix it. Mine is the spare so I'm not going out of my way to take any action on it. Did you buy this car from a dealer? If so, it may be worth contacting them an asking if they know of someone who might reprogramme it for you. Alternatively, try a couple of your local used car lots- these chaps have their fingers on the pulse with most snags and usually know someone good with such things. Good luck, Gareth.

Thanks Steve and Trevor I have already got the RS booked for the Audi Event at Castle Combe in September so hopefuly catch up with some of you then. I will upload some pics but wanted add the RS to my profile/login. Cheers Tom
