  1. Are they halogen or xenon headlights? If it's the latter the ballast boxes go.
  2. Looking forward to seeing you all at the show next weekend 🙂 Please find attached the club display sign we have to display on our dashboards when entering the event. Also we need to arrange a pre meet location which could be either Rownhams Motorway Services - SO16 8AP or the Car Park at Tesco's at Sizer Way, Dibden, Southampton SO45 5JA. Which would you all prefer? audiownersclub.com.pdf
  3. Definitely take a look at YouTube buyers guides. If I'm not mistaken these have timing chains I think. These can rattle and could need replacing if so.

  7. I've got a similar issue. I've had various parts of the central locking looked at. I think in my case the CCM needs replacing. Does your central locking work ok?
  8. I think you can buy units that plug into the back of the radio can't you? An Audi retrofit with genuine parts will probs cost around £500 I'd guess. You could always upgrade the headunit to a android/apple car play compatible one.
  9. It might need an update. Your best advice is to ring Audi to see if there's an update available.
  10. I think it's in the boot or behind the bumper.
  11. Ah I understand. I think the bcm will need to be replaced with the correct one for the new headlights.
  12. What were you trying to code? Can you not reset what you did to see if that fixes the issue.
  13. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 looks a lovely A5 👍 Mmi can be updated at Audi. The sat nav SD cards or discs can be bought from eBay.
  14. I had this. It could be the battery failing causing loss of power. Halfords or similar do free battery checks. In failing that you could get a diagnostic check or get an auto electrican to take a look.
  15. I'd definitely recommend test driving one to make sure you like it. Daytona grey is a great colour.
  16. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 yes it is mainly the older ones but any of them can have issues. As it's approved used it should be of better condition than non approved in theory. Check out the buyers guides on YouTube.
  17. If it is the case you have to question the strength of the body shell?! In the old days you could just bolt them to the sills on old 4x4s. But think those days are numbered. Insurance companies don't like them due to the risk posed to pedestrians. Same for bullbars.
  18. Looks stunning! And we'll looked after 🙂
  19. Definitely worth getting the battery checked. It can be done for free at Halfords or similar. If it's not the battery then a diagnostic check is recommended.
  20. In theory they should fit. The key question is the 2018 Q3 a 8u (first generation) or F3 (second generation). The 2021 car will be an F3.
  21. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 not surprised you're happy I'm sure it's lovely 👍
  22. I'm guessing the pipe is cheaper to replace than the actuator. So I'd start with that as it could be causing a leak.
