Intermittent Clutch Slip
I'd recommend you get a diagnostic check. Bare in mind it'll be a clutch and duel mass fly wheel change.

Audi A3 delivered without ambient lighting package
Audi should have notified the supplying dealer of the change. You might be able to refuse the car if it's not the spec ordered.

Some MFSW buttons stopped working
I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could be a clock spring and it's not unheard of them failing.

Recommended spark plugs
I think NGK are standard fit if I'm not mistaken

Audi 8p steering wheel
TT should be a direct fit. If the 8v one does fit I don't think buttons will work.

Hissing noise
Could it be the brake servo?.

What has the supplying dealer said? You need to speak to Audi customer services and file a complaint.

A6 c5 cd error fix
Thought I’d share a quick post. If anyone ever gets Error 3 on the CD interchanger of their Audi C5, it’s a 2 min fix. Take radio out Undo the 2 golden screws on the top side of the unit Lift top cover (the factory warranty void sticker will be cut as you lift the cover) You will see all the CD’s as a tower but one of the CD’s will be out of line. Gently tap the CD in line and done You’ll hear a click and a spring will bounce off and fit everything back in. Every person I asked said I need a new unit until I found an old thread online, thought I’d share this.

How much is it worth now?
Looks a very smart c4. I'd recommend keeping it if it's got sentimental value in my opinion.

Q3 CoD vs tfsi standard?
The belt is 5 years or 75k miles which ever comes first. The chain should be longer, if not for life of the engine.

Suspension failure
Nice one 👍

TRUTRAK TRACKER
Don't forget you can always look at getting apple air tags (I think that's what they're called) for £35 which are mini trackers. Samsung do similar ones. These are easily hidden and most thieves wouldn't be considering these compared to a normal tracker. The more expensive option which is very good is the Ghost alarm/tracker.

Cold starting problem
If there's no codes then it's old fashioned diagnostics I'm afraid. What condition is the battery? If it's old it might be worth getting this checked? Spark plugs/glow plugs when we're these last changed? Is it worth getting the starter motor looked at?

B6 A4 1.9tdi owner in Bristol looking to make contacts ideally with a VAG-COM
I'd definitely look at replacing the switch unit on the drivers door. You're right there's a lot of electronics on the drivers door but if it's anything like my c5 it's because the drivers door locking mechanism controls all the central locking.

High miles Audi A5?
Key questions whats the service history on the car and why is the owner getting rid of it?

Audi a6 2005 auto v6 brake problem
I had the servo replaced with a new one. Best option I think for peace of mind 😊
