I recently took my 2014 2.0 TDI for it's first MOT. The dealer advised that it was due a Lambda sensor recall/replacement and carried out the work. Since then I am convinced that the economy is significantly less good although the car seems to run fine. Has any one else come across this? I did telephone and ask if this was an emissions related issue - I was told not and that the running of the car isn't affected adversely......

Just wanted to wish all our members a happy new year and may 2018 be better than 2017 getting in early as by 12 i`ll be !Removed! faced lol

Happy new year Paul :) I want to wish all members on here a happy, healthy and prosperous New year :)

the wiring is in the loom but you will have to change the aig bag ring/squib for on from a b7 ar from a b6 that had a mfsw fitted.

Winter tyres are great in all winter weather, not just snow. Full set of Continental WinterContact TS860's fitted on 16" alloys in Cairngorm near Aviemore.

Wanted to post it on here so it went to someone that would appreciate it rather than treat it as a cheapy. 150 miles full service history, last 3 done by myself full services with genuine parts. Cam belt and pump done by previous owner, Bose Auto lights Cruise Half leather / Alcantara (great condition) Heated seats 1.9 TDI Quattro (quite rare in lead to belive) still gets over 500 miles to a tank which is nice! Symphony 6CD changer with Aux in (from B7) B7 genuine aero wiper arms and wipers £2000 - Newport wales upload my photo on internet

Audi are recalling a4, a5 and 5 models built between April 2011 and may 2015 due to a electrical connector fault which can cause a thermal overload and burning smell or even a fire.

Hi Ian, welcome to the forum. Key thing is service history. Ideally this should be full and any 2011 car your looking at is probably due a cambelt and water pump change. Black edition is a good spec but once again make sure everything works as it should. In terms of gearbox, if it's auto make sure the gear changes are smooth in both manual and auto as it can be expensive to fix if it breaks. If you were looking at Quattro fitted vehicle make sure that it works properly as the system can be sensitive even uneven Tyre wear can potentially damage it. It's probably wise to get an independent inspection carried out. Companies such as the AA and RAC offer this service. If the seller is reluctant or refuses then you have to wonder if they or the car has something to hide! I've found this video on YouTube that may be of some use: Hope I've helped :) Cheers Steve
