Steve Q

You're welcome 🙂

I'd get a diagnostic check. Are there any engine management lights on? It could be MAF sensor, engine mounts?

Wow let's see some pics and price. What's its history?

You're most welcome 🙂

Or 22 inch (10 × 22 inch) ABT SPORT GR rims with matt black paint and diamond-turned surface

Or 22" Vossen cv3-r rims

What about 22" Vossen CVT rims.. https://www.tuningblog.eu/en/categories/cars-from-az/vossen-cvt-audi-a8-d5-221731/

You're welcome, glad Steve & I could help. Please keep us posted on how you get on 🙂

Welcome to the forum Paul, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

You can call the AA or similar breakdown company who will come and plug a computer in to see if there are any fault codes. Could be a crank sensor maybe. How has the battery been tested?

This should help too: https://www.power-steering.co.uk/audi-a3-power-steering-problems-racks-and-pumps/ It looks like coding on the 8p was 2011 onwards. So in which case I'd be looking back to the rack for the issues. But here's some advice if it does need coding: "Provided the battery is the same type (AGM or EFB) and the same Ah capacity (within sensible variation e.g. 60Ag or 65Ah) then all you need to do is change the serial number, what you change it to doesn't matter - it just needs to be different. The usual advice is that it is enough just to change one digit." also this link might help: https://forums.ross-tech.com/index.php?threads/4112/

Yep but the engines are the same. All VAG do is change the body from Audi, Skoda, Vw etc.

Lol I mean A6 c5, but you already knew that! 🤣 Let's not get on the topic of the Sinclair c5, our views on electric vehicles (I call them all milkfloats) will bore most members to tears lol. In all seriousness though Steve, am I right in thinking that for self leveling suspension there would be a sensor connected to the shock? As that would narrow down the OP shock options. On another note, Dan you believe you can't get self leveling shocks for my a6 anymore.

Glad you went, did you have a great day? Your car looks in great condition 🙂👍 Feel free to attend other shows with us and gave your car on display 👍

Please keep us posted on how you get on 🙂

Self leveling suspension isn't the same as air suspension. Air suspension has bags instead of springs. I suspect you should have self leveling suspension but the best thing to do is contact the parts suppliers to Mack sure you're getting the right ones. I'd get genuine parts if possible, but I've got sach rear shocks on my c5 and they're ok. I couldn't get genuine ones as they're no long made.

Sat nav and cd player are separate? The sat nav might be an SD card type in the armrest storage compartment. If sat nav and cd are disc type then they should definitely be in the boot panels. Also this link might help:

Does the battery need coding to the car? I'd say it was the sensor if the battery is new and coded (if needed).

I agree with cliff on this the driver's door module controls all the other doors.

You're welcome. Even from the garage that fitted it, even if it's aftermarket the egr should have a warranty of some sort.

As our members will know we attend various shows throughout the year. But we are looking to see what other events or functions our members would like us to organise such as breakfast meets, dinners, museum visits, rolling road days, special cafe visits like ace cafe etc? What do you think. What other things would you like to see with the club to encourage you to participate? What other suggestions/ideas do you have to strengthen the club?

If you've had a genuine egr then I'd say it unlikely be that (some after market ones are known to fail within weeks). The warranty on the egr, If done at Audi it should be a year. Could it be the cats as the diagnostic check says I wonder? Or as Steve says a sensor. Sometimes sensors fail but instead of diagnostic Bringing up the sensor fault it says there's a mechanism fault instead.

Is anyone interested in attending this show? I can arrange a club display if so.

Keep us posted 🙂
