  1. So last Sunday 29th May, fellow member Jack P & I completed the London to Brighton run covering 450 or so miles from my home and back again. We started at Brooklands museum and ended on Madeira Drive Brighton. Jack and I went down on the Saturday to have a look around the Brooklands museum and Mercedes Benz world. Big thank you to Jack Phillips for his fantastic navigating skills. Has such a great day visiting museums along the way and meeting Mike Brewer. We'll do it again next year but next time Jack will be driving his TT and I'll be navigating!
  2. I agree with Gareth. Gone off fuel won't help it's running. An oil change is advisable too. Best way to determine its power is by Dyno it on a rolling road.
  3. Could be the cat: https://www.700r4transmissionhq.com/audi-q5-rotten-egg-smell/
  4. Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 lovely S4 you have there 👍
  5. That's good then. Hopefully they sort it and you have trouble free motoring 🙂
  6. Yep I remember that. The problem is you can't reason with China. This is what'll lead to trouble in the end.
  7. Glad you're pleased with it despite the known mmi issue. 🙂
  8. Nice one 🙂 my works going well too
  9. 18" wheels are possible as even 17" alloys were fitted to certain models: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304508888900?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ilpS14oASGe&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133883388923?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=mkq438n3qi6&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325153828924?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=4IRGjOU0TEK&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/195092215221?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=8Se7mkv-QkO&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  10. Lol. I find it hypocritical when China has copied various car designs over the last 15 years.
  11. I think you have to remove the boot interior trim pieces around the flap to gain access. Similar issues are known on the a7.
  12. No probs. Its not applicable to me as my A6 is far too old. Just thought it give other members an idea of cost. I'll hazard a guess it's not cheap.
  13. I don't personally. But you'll need VCDS or similar to do it.
  14. It is on most Audi models. Or behind the bumper.
  15. Might be worth speaking to Audi as there are various mmi issues currently.
  16. No probs at all 🙂
  17. The other option would be to take it to a garage for them to do it. But you'd be looking £50.
  18. Glad you got sorted 🙂
  19. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see what fault codes flag up. It could be the fuel pump, MAF sensor (would run rough before cutting out though), cam sensor, lambda sensor.
  20. I believe it will have to be coded.
  21. Thank you for following this up 🙂 glad you got sorted. How much did it cost if you don't mind me asking?
  22. Glad you're getting it sorted. The egr is a nuisance part on modern diesels that's for sure.

    New A1

    Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 It'll have to go to a dealer or an retrofitter like autologics could do it. But expect to pay £600.
  24. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see what fault codes flag up.
  25. I'd recommend getting it to an auto electrican as they'll be cheaper. Well done for having a go at sorting it though 🙂
