  1. Thanks Charles, Try LLL Parts where you may find original part numbers. In case it helps, I use Parts in Motion (Exeter) who have always given me superb service and very competitive prices on discs etc. Kind regards, Gareth.
  2. Thanks for the comprehensive advert Tom, but you have forgotten to state the price. Kind regards, Gareth.
  3. Nothing glaringly obvious from the photos.
  4. Try LLL Parts website.
  5. It’s a shame the OP is yet to read any of the responses.
  6. Yes we know Audi won’t Charles , and you can’t really blame them. Where have you enquired to buy aftermarket discs and pads, and what brand are you looking for? Kind regards, Gareth.
  7. Welcome Barry, you have just won the prize for the shortest introductory post from a newcomer. We do not charge by the word! Kind regards, Gareth.
  8. Probably stuck with TRV sealant Chris.
  9. Hello Chris, Saying it as it is:- The patient has been diagnosed with a serious heart complaint, and as a result, more organs have been damaged to a life threatening extent, and you are fussing about relatively minor detail of slightly low compressions etc. The engine is almost certainly damaged to an undesirable extent and you now want to do fairly major dismantling to try to find out that extent. I think it’s worth you just leaving this well alone except buying a new oil pump and sucking it and seeing, or decide not to throw anymore good money after bad -at this stage - when you should have taken notice some year (or more?) ago when the oil pressure warning was doing its best to let you know. For goodness sake just fit a new oil pump, assume the worse and hope for the best! Kind regards, Gareth.
  10. It l looks like you are searching Autodoc/ECP. If it were mine I would discount everything except Febi. Check out Parts in Motion for great service at competitive prices. Well worth checking their EBay listings for the correct part- often a little cheaper than buying the same part off their website. Let us know what you come up with Chris. Kind regards, Gareth.
  11. Thanks Chris. The horse has already bolted, but…
  12. But you have already changed the oil filter without improvement. Function is the operative word!
  13. Just buy a new level sensor James.
  14. Thanks Chris, I fear ignoring this issue over a year of use, is regrettably the cause of both issues, and OK pessimistically, simply rectifying the oil pump issue isn’t going to rectify the damage already caused. Sorry for that opinion. Kind regards, Gareth.
  15. Judging from the oil pressure issue you list separately, this engine’s condition sounds poorly.
