Bill. I can't answer your question, though in your position I would change the oil and filter. I daresay you know the precautions for low temperature use of the car, so I'll just remind you about changing the antifreeze to a higher concentration, and to consider snow tyres.

Ranjit. Everybody has an unrealistic expectation of his car's value, and believes it to be worth more than an insurer or a buyer will pay. I'd say £2330 is not an unfair valuation for a 21 year old car irrespective of how many thousands of pounds you may have spent on it.

Scott. I am surprised you can not see the video as it still works for me, though I admit it is a bit shakey and hard to discern the detail. Incidentally Dave Mccraw has not returned to the forum since last September so he may not be seeing your request.

It's odd how one can become attached to a particular brand. For thirty years I had a succession of Fords (Mk 2 Consul to Mk 3 Granada 2.9 Cosworth 24 valve,) until one day the love affair faded. Since then its all been downhill starting with worst car I have ever owned a BMW 325d, then an Audi A3, and now a Smart. Driving is no fun any more.

Not necessarily. 68 views does not mean 68 owners of the same model knowledgeable enough to identify a particular part number.

Perhaps try sucking from the top end.

If you enjoy banging your head against a brick wall you could write to Audi UK Head Office.

No. I'd say either the lacquer is too thin to spread around sharp edges or the preparation/priming was inadequate.

Do please let us know the outcome.

Who'd have guessed it? Even though you have explained it the symbol still makes no sense to me.

It looks like the lacquer is lifting. I'd say water is getting in from the edges of the metal where the lacquer is thinnest.

What light? I can't see a light on.

Whether it needs to be serviced is debatable. Given that it is now out of guarantee you have nothing to lose by changing oil and filter. As I am fond of saying, nobody suffered a gearbox failure by changing the oil too often.

How would knowing the fuse locations help? Fuses blow for a reason, so unless you solve the cause first a new fuse will also blow immediately.

Look though this forum and you will find dozens of owners facing the same problem. Few have had a satisfacory resolution.
