thanks steve,it was a great day and a lot of audis there but im still struggling to get the pics uploaded,me and computers dont get on!

Great day today at a German show in the county of Cork. The weather really made it! Greg :]

thats a pity,fine looking car

thanks lads,i dont have the touch pads,mine just has the buttons,so no jukebox for me!

i have a 2016 a6 black edition would this have the tech pack?I like the idea of the jukebox!

Thats sound advice steve,that happened to a friend of mine with an a4 and the putty destroyed the dpf.it turned into an expensive job then.greg

its normally on a sticker in the spare wheel well,the sticker will have a lot of other codes on it too.its also on the inside of the owners manual giving all codes for the spec on your car,this includes the paint code.i hope this helps.greg

A scary story adam and i can only imagine the stress and strain it put you under,it was a good outcome and credit to you for sticking with it and not letting the garage fob you off.greg.

hi,if its any consolation these government bodies who deal with all this import paperwork usually know nothing about cars and have no passion for vintage or rare models,here in eire its the same,they seem to go out of their way to make it as hard as possible to import a car.you try to do it the proper way but they seem to enjoy asking for more pointless paperwork just when you think your sorted!greg.

hi,i think you need to put up all the cars details and service history if your trying to look for a buyer here,also some pics too .greg

well done on sorting the air pump,i tried that with mine but it didnt solve the whistling noise,i might give it another go.

welcome to the forum tom,best of luck with the new toy!

yeah the vcds goes back to 1998 as far as i know,its a very handy tool

hi jon,thanks for all these tips ,there very helpful as ive purchased the vcds only lately so ill have a fiddle around with it at the weekend.thanks again.greg.

hi paul,the secondry air pump is a pain and its not much use but it needs to be functioning for emissions when its due the mot,theyre also known for leaking either from the unit itself or one of the 2 pipes.im not sure what the white seal isthat you mentioned.

very nice car and very clean.best of luck with it,greg

welcome jimmy,very nice car,best of luck with it.

im down south steve in clare [wild atlantic way!]your welcome anytime

samething happened me here in eire with mt 2002 tt,i got a new set for 300 euro from lithuania ,and what i didnt know is that theres a little switch in the back which changes them from lhd to rhd,very handy.theyre not genuine audi lights but they look very well.

yes steve your very welcome here anytime and we could definitely meet up and im sure we'd have a good old chat over a pint or 2!

hi lads its an interesting topic youve raised and everyone has a different opinion,i personally find the forum very helpful and friendly and have gotten good advice in the past,i also see people come on here and get good advice but dont ever come back or offer a thank you,i guess theres a bit of that in all forums. on a personal level im here in eire so cant attend any shows but i definitely would if the journey was shorter and i dont offer much advice as i wouldnt have a lot of knowledge on some models,but i really do enjoy logging in and reading all the posts so keep it going and we can hope people will appreciate how valuable a tool that this forum is.greg

congrats on winning,like steve id love to see pics and details etc..greg

on your model the only light that comes on the dash is the blue light for your main beam when you use it,the auto open for the boot only came on later models.greg

hi steve thanks for the advice,i got a bit more info on it yesterday and your advice is spot on.400 euro plus vat for it here,hopefully itll be worth it!greg.

hi guys,ive just changed the brake master cylinder on my 02 tt and its proving impossible to get the brakes bled properly,i have a foxwell obd but im going to buy the ross tech vcds which apparently will bleed it properly,can anyone point me in the right direction of which one?we have 4 audis ranging from 1995 to 2016 in the family so is there a particular version i need?thanks in advance for any help.greg.
