I just purchased a 2007 A4 S Line B7 so thought i would post a pic of how it is all i have done is

When steel rusts it expands, thereby pushing adjacent parts away from each other. That's why rusty bolts are a swine to remove and brake discs are pushed out of alignment.

Fuses don't just "go" for no reason. They fuse because the circuits they protect are being over loaded. Evidently the fitting of the dash cam has caused such an overload so my suggestion is that you have it removed, or re-fitted by somebody who knows what he is doing.

Hi Charles, Obviously I dont know how long you will be staying in the S/Wales area, but if that light is staying on and a cause of concern, it might be worth a conversation with, or better still a visit to R-Tec. Anyway, best of luck getting it sorted.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

Thanks not really done much yet, few things needed especially cruise control

Thank you very much for your reply. 👍🏻

Just a couple of my Q7, had this around 4 weeks. Absolutely awesome.

Hello Chris Thank You very much for comment,Your RS5 is so beautiful, Regards Bartek

Did your parking sensors deactivate when you plugged in your caravan as they should if it was coded and wired correctly. No fogs on your car makes me think that someone has made a mess of wiring in the tow socket

Im staying in Porthcawl, took my Audi to NG Motors in Cardiff, did interim service and MOT, needed 2 new tyres, total was £400. They could not deal with the engine light and air bag light being on, said it was an electrical fault and that i need to take it to an auto electrician. They reset it so that it could pass the MOT but the light came straight back on, wish I had taken it to R-Tec in hindsight. Thank you Gareth and Chris for your advice

No it is not good. The battery will have been damaged by being fully discharged and it will let you down again. As Gareth said, it's time for a new battery.

We take it it was the main battery rather than the fob battery -? If so, you should replace the battery ASAP then get it coded to the car - unless something had been left on by mistake. If a want recommendations on what brand and where to buy then just let us know. Kind regards, Gareth.

Hello everone, i need a question answered if anyone at all can help. I currently have an audi a3 8p 2010. I love the dash and centre console which I've upgraded with a new stereo for android auto, underseat sub and parcel shelf speakers with amp. I want to keep this whole setup in my next car. The car im looking at is a 2013/14 audi s3, which i know has a different centre and dash due to upgraded controls and pop up stereo screen. However i love the look of the car but hate the centre and dash. Do anyone know if im able to "downgrade" this to the old 8p style? Would it be possible? Expensive or fairly cheap? Or just not do able at all? Thanks

Thanks Steve I should also point out that I traded a very nice BMW 520d M Sport Touring 18 plate with 60k miles - reason for trade was that I wanted to pay off the loan I had for it and be loan free. I have had company cars for many years and opted out 3x years ago nearly and took a car allowance - the company state that the car must be 4x doors and some other stats that the Audi meets. I love cars and sprint/hill climb a classic Scimitar GT Coupe and also have another for weekend use I wanted a retro ride BUT with enough modernity to cruise up and down the motorway for work and my lids University visits as well as something quick and frugal - it also had to be reliable with quality history and proven mechanics First car I looked at was an Audi 100 2.3e saloon - very nice great condition for year (1989) - a few things to put right so passed as I haven't got the time at present - £3,995 Next car was a Volvo V70R Estate 2wd and a manual - lovely car again and engine rebuilt professionally - drove beautifully and very fast (340 bhp) - a little too Moddy for my wife - £9,000 Next was a couple of Jag XJ's 3.0d - I love the shape and individuality BUT not the reputation - however some great bargains out there I looked at an Audi 100 Avant Turbo online at £11,995 - great iconic car BUT undersealed and didn't have the time to visit and inspect properly I always admired and loved the Audi A8 - the car in the film Ronin - a beautiful D2 S8 - and having driven 2x Audi's as company cars loved their individual style and design emanating from that ground breaking Audi 100 CD that I travelled in as a kid when my girlfriends Father drove us up the M6 - at that time my Dad had a Volvo 760 GLE which was great BUT the Audi was technologically and design wise light years ahead....in my view:) Like reading the leaflet in a prescribed set of drugs - reading online the horror stories of large expensive cars as a second-hand option for mere mortals with an exhaustive income is daunting reading BUT like anything doing your homework is essential - I have tried to do this with this car and think I have found a very nice well looked after example - when speaking with the Independent Garages who serviced the car they remembered the 2nd owner well who owned it for 12x years and confirmed that he only wanted Audi OEM Filters/Oil and barking parts - the check report showed no accidents or insurance claims - the colour was advertised as Phantom Black - its not its standard black and - it has had its rear nearside quarter pained and its not the greatest BUT will redo - lastly the only thing I found after washing the weekend was slight corrosion at the top 2x corners of the windscreen on the roof?? I will again get this done (anyone else seen this?) I will keep you updated of progress Heres some pics

Got some led ones that said warning/error free for make and model didn't work so just got the normal bulbs thank for all replys and help appreciated it

Hi all, just joined up today. Here's my new machine. I originally had a 2014 A3 1.6 S-Line, then a 2014 A4 TDI. But this little pocket rocket is a drastic improvement. 2016 A3 SPORT 184 - perfect for overtaking muppet drivers on the Irish roads here!!

Hi Newbie here. Here are some photos of Florence the A6. She is my first Audi 😀

Thanks for letting me join. Traveled 10 hours to get this beauty to take it back up north to Scotland a week ago. Needs a few things fixed before next summer. My first classic car.

Apologies for the gripe, but the forum has recently suffered from a spate of what can be termed ‘Post and Run’ new members, who seem to think it’s perfectly acceptable to post a plea for help, and simply not return to view the help given. In a more diluted form, help is offered, but is very rarely acknowledged even via. a simple press of the Like button, leave alone a posted Thank You. The last part of the gripe is that we frequently have to ask for additional information, and this extra detail often never materialises. Please remember, everyone who posts replies do so without payment, but it certainly does cost them in time - in terms of the Moderators and Admin back up - a lot of time. So a special plea to all on here who post needing help:- please be respectful enough to acknowledge any help given, rather than simply accept it as a no-cost, no time of yours, free advice service. It’s wearing thin folks, so if you want to retain this service, please respect and acknowledge its benefits. Thank you all for reading this, and above all, agreeing to adhere to the respect that is needed to be shown. Kind regards, On behalf of the Moderators. Please note:- This request is to all members, not just new ones.
