alpha omega

take it straight back to them.their machine should turn it off.or the wiring could be corroded somewhere according to youtube

did you do change them.....if the garage did them, then get them to reset it with their machine.

cromer, hunstanton,wells next to the sea,snettisham, quite a few other places.holiday bookings are expensive now there though but a lovely place to go.people are so friendly

my brother and his family have just got back from norfolk.they've been going there for the past 20 years or more.they now have to book while their there for the following year as places soon go now.

good evening eve.and welcome😁

yep definately the clutch thankfully have it booked in at a garage in the countryside.he needs the car for 2 days complete clutch kit plus labour £1400 plus m.o.t while its there.happy bunny

hi steve,i am begining to wonder after all wether it is the clutch now and grasping at straws hoping to find a cheaper solution.as i am getting good acceleration now,and wonder now if i just need to change the acceleration pedal with the built in sensor....but no codes are showing.so of course wont be doing that....i did what kev asked me to try this morning and start the engine and spray wd 40 around the pipes but no change in the engine sound....apologies for frustrating you and others.i just cannot find someone who is willing to look at it other than audi.which i feel reluctant to have to go to....we all know a lot of stories with audi.regards stephen

just cleaned the 6 prongs on the accelerator pedal.(last pic)undo x3 8mm bolts remove the cover.one of the bolts is where the fuses are on the right side of the dash.removed x1 27mm torx bolt(pic 3) from the top of the pedal to free it.here are pics in case anyone needs a part no.i(pic 5) its definately improved acceleration more(90%)...

£24.99 with a reserve on ebay.£14.99 without

lol clifford i had 4 codes come up so i knew i needed a throttle body so bought that and the cars definately improved with acceleration.no codes present now so got that out of the way before going to audi,but the earliest appointment is the 18th september.(£140 diagnostic check.)

"update" fitted a new pierburgh throttle body as it came up with a code p210000 throttle actuator control motor circuit open.and its definately improved the acceleration.not perfect but i will hang to me dosh for now. GFS parts pierburgh throttle boody £154.75 including v.a.t.thanks all stephen

nice clean engine bay

Problems with the ignition switch, changed the oxygen sensor + landa probe

i have four of them cream crackered screws only realised when i took all the wheels off to give things a tidy up.no mention from seller about it.got them to do sometime.wish me luck lol

but these garages are living in cuckoo land.its only those foolish enough to pay that amount that keeps these garages going.ask someone who earns £12 an hour.regards

sorry if i am been mis- understood clifford.but do you or anyone think that paying someone from(lowest quote)around £115 an hour in labour to(the highest quote) £200 an hour in labour is a reasonable price to pay. i personally dont think so.this is why people like myself and others on here try and have a go at doing things themself.yes we can argue they are skilful.equipment is expensive.they have to pay wages and buisness rates etc etc.....then you will argue back, then dont buy a car then.but we boys like our toys.when your working on a minimum wage like a lot of people are these days you want something out of life.i really do believe we are been ripped off with everything we buy.and no wonder we are in a reccesion both here and all around the world.and a lot of people have gone out of buisness.Bring back the good old days

hi steve,i get what your saying.i have tried 6 garages so far and they want between £1600 to £2200.is that fair would you say.regards stephen

Hi all,the clutch is slipping on my audi a4 b8 2.0tdi avant estate so i am looking for one similar to buy and using mine as a donor......Or if anyone knows someone who can do a clutch(supplied) cheaper than audi or garages,then please do let me know.i am in the yorkshire area.thanks stephen

thanks for the quick reply gareth there is a very small amount of play at the top of the pedal.(that could be normal)otherwise the pedal seems fine when pressed i can feel pressure and the pedal returns fine

can anyone tell me if its possible to bleed the clutch pedal or be able to adjust the clutch pedal,in order to make any difference to a slipping clutch.as always any help would be much appreciated...just to confirm its an audi a4 avant estate(b8) 2.0 tdi 2011

hi gareth there is only 2 clutch kits i was told for this car and both are by L.u.k so i was thinking of buying the one i was quoted for at £566 which includes the d.m.f and bolts.or stick it on ebay at 99p start....i paid £2500 around 3.5 years ago

would anyone on the forum be willing to put a new dmf and clutch in for me(audi says 8 hours) so a big job....i cannot afford audi prices.i would purchase the parts needed if someone with a garage in yorkshire would be willing to have a go....please let me know asap as clutch is slipping.i would like to keep this car as mentioned i know the inns and outs of it.kind regards stephen

hi again gareth first of all to you and others apologies for late replies(personal reason).i was passing ECP so i thought i would call in,but not realising without looking online how much down the hill they have gone.yes you have mentioned a few times about parts in motion.here is a recent quote i was given which includes the DMF and bolts £566(trade price)....i will try parts in motion.i have had 2 quotes for labour(audi) and a local garage both in the same price area.would you or anyone on this forum know if its possible to adjust the clutch on this audi a4 2.0 tdi (b8).kind regards all

hi all again.had no internet so apologies.both clutches that fit my car are luk only according to what used to be euro car parts forgot their new name as i cannot find the quote they gave me,but it was around £845 which includes the dual mass flywheel. and then theres labour on top(8 hours).so trying to sell this one and put that towards another,or keep this one knowing the inns and outs of it and what i have had done to the car too regards stephen
