  1. If you got it on finance speak to the finance company telling them it's not fit for purpose. But if Audi can't find the fault then you're in a catch 22.
  2. If it's anything like my A6 you have to get one that's got the exact same part number including letters.
  3. Might be easier getting this wiring harness: http://vagtec.co.uk/eshop/audi/a1/a1-8x/fog-light-wiring-harness-audi-a1-8x.html
  4. Could be the antenna, the module or the mmi unit itself. My advice would be to get a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up.
  5. I've not personally. But you've got me wondering what condition my bushes are in. 😬
  6. I think it'll need removing. You changing both sides?
  7. How'd you get on with this? Any update?
  8. It's mad to be honest
  9. It would need coding and fitting professionally. I'd recommend you'd speak to a retrofitted such as autologics. Think you'd be looking £600-1000 to have it fitted. You'd be better off getting an A3 that has it fitted already.
  10. A week to go until this show, who's coming?
  11. There was a time chains on the whole lasted for life! They've cheapened them deliberately so they have to be changed like a Cambelt in my opinion.
  12. Shocking the way these parts suppliers act it really is!
  13. Diagnostic check is recommended. You could always upgrade the sub, amp and speakers.
  14. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂
  15. W12 is reliable and smooth but very thirsty.
  16. Lol. You knew what I meant 😂 could always consider trekking style bags 😉
  17. If most are in town then I think you'd be better with petrol to be honest. Regardless of engine make sure the gearbox has been serviced on time and that the tyres match/say tread as uneven tyre wear can damage the quattro system.
  18. Definitely useful bad a reference point 🙂
  19. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes are stored regarding the start up issue. Sounds like it might not have been running on all cylinders maybe? Regarding air suspension is think level 2 is standard. Wouldn't 1 bar be dynamic and 3-4 off road etc.
  20. The question what s, how many miles do you do a year and what kind of miles. If it's low miles mainly around town then avoid diesel as you'll just end up with blocked egr or dpfs.
  21. Location unknown of this quattro.
  22. Cheap fixes are the best 🙂
  23. Definitely should be covered under warranty in my opinion. They look like the suspension mounting points. I'd get it booked in with the Audi body shop.
  24. I recommend a diagnostic check to see what fault codes flag up. Could definitely be a sensor.
  25. A German court on Friday threw out a lawsuit against a guideline issued by automaker Audi that called for employees to use gender-sensitive language. An employee of Audi’s parent company, Volkswagen, objected to Audi colleagues using such language in their communications with him and went to the state court in Audi’s home city of Ingolstadt to challenge the guideline. He alleged a violation of his personal rights. But the court ruled the person who brought the lawsuit had no right to demand the non-application of the guidance, German news agency dpa reported. Judge Christoph Hellerbrand said it was directed only at Audi employees and the plaintiff, as a Volkswagen employee, was not required to follow it. The court also found that being on the receiving end of gender-sensitive wording wasn’t enough to justify a ruling in the Volkswagen employee’s favor. He didn’t have a right “to be left in peace,” the judge ruled. Some other companies have introduced similar guidelines. German nouns referring to people and their professions have different masculine and feminine forms. The Audi guideline in question was introduced last year. It called for the use of a form of German words that includes an underscore to encompass both masculine and feminine forms and is meant to show broader gender inclusiveness — writing “employees” as “Mitarbeiter_innen,” for example. That and another gender-sensitive form that uses an asterisk — in which “employees” would be written as “Mitarbeiter(asterisk)innen” — annoy conservatives, some language experts and others. They prefer more traditional forms such as the “generic masculine” — using the masculine plural, “Mitarbeiter,” to refer to all genders, or in some cases referring genders separately as “Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter.” https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2022/07/29/german-court-rejects-suit-over-audis-gender-sensitive-language/amp/
