  1. Yep sounds like the reader. Make sure you get the code with the replacement radio
  2. Glad you got sorted 🙂
  3. Glad the aa have helped. If it's not the battery then I guess the switch is the next port of call
  4. I'd be speaking to the company that refurbed it as it doesn't sound right.
  5. I'll keep an eye out for this brand, as I've never heard of it before. Thanks for the info.
  6. No probs. You might find a second hand one on eBay.
  7. At least you've got a temporary fix. Sounds like your mechanic is very knowledgeable 👍
  8. I'd be looking on eBay in my opinion.
  9. I wonder if it's an issue with the app or the car. Easiest thing to do is delete.the app and reset it up to see if that works.
  10. This YouTube video might help:
  11. Sounds like the previous owner did a bodge job! Glad you got sorted.
  12. Glad you got sorted 🙂
  13. They're nice 👍
  14. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 I'd recommend you look at euro car parts and similar motor factors.
  15. When I had a glowplug issue, I just changed them all. You're right though it could be a broken wire from the leads.
  16. Are they bungs?
  17. Make sure all electrical items work and ac. Has the gearbox been serviced? Has the quattro system been serviced (if applicable)? Are the tyres the same brand and tread on each axle as uneven tyre wear or mismatched tyres can damage the quattro system. I'd also recommend you check out buyers guides on YouTube as they'll help.
  18. Do t start collecting wheels lol, it's an expensive hobby. Take it from my experience!
  19. That's good then 🙂 glad it's all gone well 🙂
  20. Did it say which injector was at fault?
  21. I'm just considering options on future trips which might be more extreme. My current tyres are 205/55/16. I've seen I can get a body lift kit for the A6. I'm wondering if 205/80/16 or 205/70/16 tyres will fit without causing steering or gearbox issues? I appreciate most all terrain tyres are on allroads but just seeing if it's possible in a standard A6 which is a "narrow body" compared to the allroads "wide body". I must add, the allroad standard wheel size are 17". Cheers Steve
  22. Very interesting Steve, you've got me thinking as my c5 has never had a new throttle body in its whole 21 years of life.... Glad you've found the parts cheaper 🙂 does the new one have to be coded? What condition is the egr in?
