  2. Hi all has anyone changed there badges to the black emblems if so where did you buy them and are they good quality. I bought some that was ment to be a direct fit and defo not,In the process ive snapped a couple clips of my own.
  3. Are these engines ok too get remapped,read a few horror storys,the audi specialist local too me has gave me some figures and reckons they will get the bhp too around 230/240.
  4. Hi there i pick my new car up this week A4 35 diesel and looking at getting it remapped,Ive currently got a A5 sportback 190bhp and be dropping down to 150bhp in the new car.Ive spoke to garage about doing the remap who is very repritable (Star performamce fife) and they told me i would be looking at gaining about 90bhp which seems high from a remap. Has anyone had theres done and if so what sort of power did you gain and is there any repercussions? Not sure about power tollerences in the car so thought i would ask before pottentially doing some thing stupid,thanks

  10. My brake pad warning light is on and wont go off the wire that connects to the pads is broken so it got cut and tapped when it was last in the garage,im not to fussed for the warning light as ill go back to the old school way and listen but is there any way of getting the warning light to stop flashing a fuse or some thing that coukd be disconnected??
  11. My car had the same warning light and after reading up what can cause it to come on it was low clutch/brake fluid topped that up and warning light went off,my car starts no problem and drives fine was just the light that was on
  12. Thanks alot for the advice the more i thought about it being unbalanced wheels the more it made sense i also asked ny fad who owns a tyre franchise he said the same so going to get new tyres for winter and get my wheels balanced,im booked in next week to get tera clean done to my car as well so hopefuly it should be running a bit better ill let you know how i get on
  13. Hi all this is my first post so bare with me if i sound like im being a noob, Im having issues when accelerating,when i put my foot doen on the accelerator in any gear when the engine goes up the revs at about 2500 rpm its as if someone is pushing the clutch in i have no power and if i keep my foot on the accelrator the revs go away up but the car doesnt go any faster,if i take my foot off the accelarator and go back under 2500 rpm i have power again, I went to see a mechanic yesterday and took him out in the car too show him and the car didnt do it suprise suprise and its never done it since,he checked the clutch says the clutch is fine the clutch doesnt slip and is at this moment in time the car is driving fine,before he got in the car he had a listen to the engine and noticed there was a small hose that wasnt connected to the airbox so he connected that and since then the cars drove fine could that have been the cause off the problem??small fix thats helped a massive problem if it is!!! I also have a juddering coming from the front off the car but only at 60mph - 70mph its feels similar to unbalanced but the steering wheel doesnt move at all you can only feel it through the steering wheels and pedals Thanks in advance for any input orcomments
