  1. More than likely a lose connector I would have thought if you disturbed it in the first place. Best to retrace your steps and check everything. Sucks when that happens after completing an otherwise nice job!
  2. Hard to tell unless you have paperwork or put it on a rolling road etc... To be honest the 3.0 diesels always feel really quick because they have an absolute truck load of torque
  3. Looking awesome mate top job! I always love black cars when they're all polished up but the trouble is they're dirty again before you know it!
  4. Yeah well they are older cars now so not up to modern standards in that department I suppose. Are you wiring the speakers straight from the head unit then?
  5. Have you tried gaining access to the bulb? Checked fuses etc?
  6. Any luck with the battery?
  7. That's a rather shiny car! Did you take any pics of the whole thing?
  8. If I'm not mistaken you can get a special adaptor cable for cars that have a factory amp fitted so you can just plug an aftermarket unit straight in?
  9. You would find that the ECU will need to "re learn" your driving habits etc and if the car has a radio code (not sure as not all do these days) You would need a code reader - a garage could do it for you too but would obviously cost more
  10. Have you tried using other media to see if it works - iPod/iPhone, USB etc?
  11. Nice so all you need is the stalk and to activate it then and job done?

    Is this only in cold weather or just cold starts in general?
  13. May be a good place to start. Just make sure you have any radio codes etc? Thought about scanning for error codes?
  14. Perhaps your car isn't compatible with artwork then? It sounds like you've got all the options ticked and the artwork embedded etc?
  15. Yes I would think so in that case then unfortunately
  16. You can use http://www.willtheyfit.com/ but you will need to find the width and offset of both your current wheels and potential new ones

    Could be glow plug related? Have you scanned for error codes?
  18. Sounds good. What other parts are needed aside from the stalk?
  19. If it's gassing you I'd check the first half of the exhaust system for leaks too
  20. Was the battery disconnected by fuel doctor?
  21. Hmmm only thing I can think is a faulty cable to be honest. If you read the reviews of that cable they are fairly mixed. Perhaps a genuine one would be better? Also, try another iPod/iPhone to rule out a problem with that iPod, and of course if you know anyone that has one try another (preferably genuine) cable
  22. Fair enough - could have done with a reverse camera then? Let me know how you get on with the mirror
  23. Hi and welcome to AOC - nice A3
