  1. No. It hasn’t developed so il play it by ear. My old mk4 golf used to do a similar thing … went on for years 🤔😂
  2. Sorry for the confusion, but I was just pointing you in the direction of the dudes channel, nothing to do with the noises 😊 he has some great content on our car model.
  3. Well mines still doing it. It hasnt got any worse. theres a YouTuber (link below) and his car appears to do it also ; heard in a couple of his videos) I’m not saying it’s normal but it seems to be common. Let us know if you get it sorted.
  4. The sound ? Or the other issue? What engine is yours?
  5. Careful with autodoc. They are notorious for supplying incorrect parts
  6. I’d be interested in this too. Not so keen on larger screen idea though
  7. Well done. Nothing more satisfying than a home spray job 👍
  8. Can’t wait to see the pics 😁
  9. Don’t forget your Panel prep and adhesion promotor aerosols 👍 halfords own aerosols aren't too bad so long as you are not going for factory paint colour match. It’s also worth investing in a 2 pack clear coat though it’s unlikely you’ll pick that up from halfords. https://www.halfords.com/motoring/paints-and-body-repair/primer/halfords-plastic-pre-primer-clear-300ml-258747.html?istCompanyId=b8708c57-7a02-4cf6-b2c0-dc36b54a327e&istFeedId=
  10. Looking good Mr.G still rocking my winter wheels, think I’ll be keeping them on 🤔😂
  11. If you’re anything like me, when parked at traffic lights, in cooler temps you’ll find your self looking at other cars exhaust for signs of vapour 🤣
  12. Of course! But in all my years of car ownership I’ve never experienced it to the extent of this little 1.4 tfsi 🤔😂
  13. I have 2012, 1.4 tfsi, in cold, damp wether, it too emits an alarming amount of vapour but only idle, No odour, no coolant loss. I was concerned the first winter this occurred but it cleared once warmer temperatures arrived. Same through this last winter but now we are experiencing above 15 degrees vapour has cleared. No loss of coolant with mine. I remember doing a google search when I first experienced it … seems to be pretty common.
  14. You dont have to throw them out. Once you have picked up and fitted the replacements, bung em on eBay Or gumtree. Get some of the money back for what you spent on A leather interior. the seats you have look like “sports” seats. Possibly somebody is looking to upgrade to those
  15. Another option might be to replace the seat with one from eBay. Plenty of seats/interiors pop up on there. Might be tricky finding something in better condition than yours with that blue insert though!? It could be an opportunity to upgrade to leather / part leather if that floats your boat

    Fuse?

    What peasantries? 😂
  17. thanks, steve... its getting to where i want it ☺️
  18. Cheeky quick photo session on the way to work ...
  19. Sorry, I’m unable to help with you query, but I’m interested in the outcome.
  20. Won’t be long before these attain classic status I reckon.
  21. You’re not the first to mention EBC … I guess there’s something in it 😁
  22. Realise this may be a bit “general” but, looking to replace discs and pads on my A3. Ideally with pads which don’t shed a Shed a sh’t load of dust! any recommendations please?
