  1. This include the Fog lights & indicators ?
  2. Yeah they were on my list but trying to find out what bulb I need ie:- H1 H4 H8 and what resistors would be required.
  3. Its not the main beams in the headlights I want to change its just the indicator bulb the dip/high beam are brilliant.
  4. Hi All I'd like to change the indicator bulbs in the headlights to LED and also the bulbs in the fog lights to LED Picture of my light units below . Has anyone changed the indicator for an orange LED bulb if so what bulb did you get to do the job and the same for the fog lights. I'd ideally like a white that matches the DRL/Xenon so 6000k i think, again has anyone done this if so what did you use ? and did you need to put in inline resistors if so where did you put them Thanks in advance
  5. Plan was to get fresh good quality oil and also add Liqui Moly Cera Tec 3721
  6. 😉
  7. Probably the wrong turn of phrase.
  8. The car is stopping just fine the pedal is firm and not spongy at all. Its just the pads arent wearing evenly across all the disc and even after 500+ miles they havent cleaned up properly around the outer edge of the disc
  9. 45k !! thats crazy. Will source a new air filter As for those links, they aren't sites I've come across before so now bookmarked 👍
  10. Theres 6 or 7 service sheets in the folder with all the cars history. So I'd assume that the air filter has been changed as required. This is the company that skims discs they have places nationwide http://www.skimmydiscs.co.uk/ I had EBC discs on my Jag and given what a big heavy car it was their brakes and pads (think I had the greenstuff on it) really improved the braking so I think I'd probably stick with those. I'd also like drilled or slotted discs (personal preference) but I've not seen those in the Brembo option. (any idea on disc size for mine ? It lists 288 & 312mm) Thanks
  11. cars only done 6800 miles in 7 years so looking through the full history I can see no mention of discs or pads so I assume that they are original discs it has had a fluid change though. ( 6800 miles means they should just about being bedded in 😉 )
  12. The car had 6800 miles on it when I picked it up with a full Audi service history the previous owner used it approx 500 miles each year and got it serviced at her local Audi garage prior to that it was an Audi dealers demo car and serviced by them. All receipts and service history to back it up. With regards to skimming discs theres a company not too far away from me that use the Pro-Cut on car lathe system so discs can be skimmed on car not sure on price as yet as not had opportunity to go see them for a quote. Was looking at M-Tec or EBC discs as replacements but not sure if I need 288 or 312 mm discs I did notice that on one of the service sheets it had new brake fluid possibly last year or year before.
  13. Was given full service as part of the handover with new oil & filters etc. However, I intended to get an oil change done when it gets its remap and also thought I'd get the Liqui Moly Cera Tech ceramic treatment put in the oil at the same time. Discs have only covered 6800 miles hence my thought of getting them skimmed as opposed to new discs as even with a skim there should be loads of life left in them ...
  14. Hi All Just thought I'd join the forum and say hi . 1st time Audi owner here. Got a lovely little A1 a few weeks ago. Its a 1.4 TFSI 150bhp S Line Black Edition. Nice pan roof, came with full Audi dealer history, its on a 17plate originally it was an Audi garage demo car and was sold onto a little old lady who put about 500 miles on it a year. When i picked it up it had 6800 miles on the clock so did under 1000 miles a year on average. I've joined a few FB Audi groups but they all seem to be very quite. So far I've swapped out the grill for a honeycomb grill and put 4d number plates on it. Black badges are on their way. Looking at a remap which should put it up to around 175/185bhp and possibly putting a lowline kit on it but cant decide yet about the kit. Once thing I've noticed is that I think due to it getting so little use the discs a a bit scored and taking a while to get some bite. I'm thinking about possibly getting the discs skimmed and new pads put in. Hopefully this will cure it the other option is to put in some new discs, if I go that direction I may get some grooved ones from EBC or M-Tec (suggestions appreciated )
