Hi Dave Welcome to the forum! Great car choice and as Trevor has said post some pictures up! :D Kind Regards Bradley

Cheers Trevor. Yea it was the colour that really did it for me. I had no plans to change from the green car as I had it mechanically spot on and was on the hunt for panels. I had my S4 front bumper painted ready for fitting then my other mate asked me to go to Chesterfield to pick up the blue car with him. a few days after we got it home he bought another car and gave me first refusal on it.. I couldn't help my self due to the colour..

Hi Dave....welcome to the Forum Be sure to post up a piccy of your new car when you collect it Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor

Welcome to the forum Dave :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) cheers steve

I've fitted the same S-Line lights to my front doors and I love them. I did also buy the Audi rings version and was going to fit them to the back doors, but found that the back doors do not have puddle lights. There are recesses in the underside of the door card where they would normally fit, but no lights or holes. I'm wondering if there is any way of cutting out the holes and finding some wires inside to connect to, but haven't taken it any further yet. Chris

Hi Luan welcome to the forum:) You'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) the bumper will fit no problem, the biggest issue you may have is getting the right sized grill. Cheers steve

Quick update.. car has been into Audi for 2 days whilst they investigate the weep. The cause or location has not been identified. They have put some oil leak detection spray on all gearbox seals in hoping it shows up. I have to leave it for 500-1000 miles and take it back in. On the plus side there’s been no charge due to them not being able to find anything. Also the box is still within the 5 year drivetrain warranty so that’s a bonus, I thought I would have to beg and plead for a good will gesture. The technician seems to think it’s possibly where the diff bolts to the box which is a silicone seal and not a gasket as such. The box has lost minimal fluid, it’s still on it’s full level. Stress and panic over, I thought it would be a get shot situation. I’ve just grown to like this car after coming from big bhp hot hatches.

Hi, I fitted a set last week. If you have the LED interior light package fitted all the lamps inside the car are LED so get the LED ones. However I see no reason why the LED ones won't work as a replacement for the halogen door lights?

Hi, just joined the forum. My car is showing as having the fix performed here: https://www.audi.co.uk/owners-area/emissions.html this is despite my refusal to have it done in the past. The car has been into the Audi workshop on quite a few occasions to have other work done on it and im wondering if they have applied the software fix without my permission. My faults with the car currently are: 1. Gutless and rough sounding engine. 2. Revs seem to get stuck at 1000rpm even when warm. 3. Fan is now continuing to run after engine is stopped (suggests the DPF is trying to continually regen) 4. DPF warning light now just came on today. 4. Poor driveability around town due to the high revs. Not pleased with these issues on a low miles car(45,000) I know a fair bit about engine tuning and how dfp filters and egr valves work, this is why I told Audi I did not want the software fix applied due to problems many owners are now experiencing. It certainly looks like the Audi garage have applied the fix without my permission. I will be taking it to have the ecu diagnosed at an indipendent tuner to confirm they have altered the software and I will take it from there.

Hi Scott I would love a copy of the service letter you referred to in your 15th Sept post please. After my Audi A1 had the software update it developed an intermittent fault with warning lights glowing plus an episode of limp mode. I've had the RAC out twice and Audi Assist once. The car then went back to Leicester Audi for 2 days and I was then called to pick it up. Nothing was done to it as 'no fault' was showing. (I'd already told them it was an intermittent fault.) The fault occurred again yesterday. I contacted Audi UK and the car has been recovered to Leicester Audi. I'm now feeling that I simply do not want this car back at all unless I can be assured that measures have been taken including new components fitted etc so my car has been returned to the previous running state, which was fine, pre-update. If they can't do that, I want Audi to buy the car back from me at an acceptable figure. I'm not accepting that all these problems are unrelated to the update. Therefore, any help to strengthen my position would be much appreciated. Thanks
