  1. Hi all, Im trying to buy a 4gb SD card thats compatible with the Audi Concert. Ive read i need a non SC card, but they are hard to get hold of, but that Amazon do sell them. I've looked on Amazon and cannot find any - i've also googled it and didnt find any anywhere else either. Could someone who has also bought one in the past, be kind enough to post a link to where i can get one? Cheers
  2. Assuming you DO have the AMI in the glove box, the simpliest thing i did was buy an AMI to USB lead then plugged in a pen drive with music on. I tried numerous tune2air devices and none worked for me.
  3. No other way but to you compressors on them then? i cant just disconnect an arm or two? Appreciate the reply
  4. Hi all, I've searched online and not really found anything definitive. My question is - Is it possible to replace the rear springs on an Audi A6 C6 without the one sided spring compressors. I do have spring compressors but read you need the type that have the disc that sits on the spring coil and attaches on only one side. or could you undo the control arms and drop the spring that way? Thanks.
  5. That good news id looked at cost of the spring compressors and they're pricey. May I ask what was the cost of the springs and the labour cost - as a rough estimate?
  6. Can you remove the springs without the special audi spring compressor?
  7. Yeah thats what im thinking. Can i assume the spring colours will always be on part of the spring thats visible without removing it?
  8. Thanks Piotr for confirming. Raises my suspicion about the other spring with no markings on it.
  9. Anyone know the colour codes the Sline 1bv springs should be.. one side of mine has yellow blue orange orange and nothing on the otherside - which appears to sit higher than the colour codes side. Im thinking someone has fitted an incorrect spring at some point - neither spring is broken from what i can see under the car. Cant find info on the A6 C6 spring colour codes.
  10. Yeah I realise the seals wont show, but I was thinking maybe the ticking is one of the injectors. Maybe the one showing as +0.99. Which is what cylinder number? Drivers bank passenger bank 1 2 3 4 5 6
  11. Took the injector readings today and they are as follows 0.99, - 0.33, -0.38 -0.24, -0.42, 0.38
  12. Ah OK, a slide hammer
  13. That's reassuring. Any special tools required to change them?
  14. Hi guys, Im hoping you can shine some light on what maybe the issue. Bought my A6 2.7 and ran it for a couple of weeks. But then change the oil and filter on it using quantuam 5w30 507.00. Since then ive got a ticking noise from the right bank. Sounds a quite light ticking. It appears louder from the centre of the cam cover - possibly injector?? You can notice at idle and speed increases with rev. Until about 2000rpm which is when it appears to disappear (or drowned out) Just strange i didnt notice this before the oil change, cant see how an oil change would affect the injector. Thanks in advance! Gareth
  15. Well half good news. Usb drive worked.
