  1. Before writing off the turbo it might be worth checking the boost pipes or the actuators.
  2. It's like anything you'll get good ones and bad ones. Service history will be a good indicator of how reliable that particular car has been. As well as what could potentially go wrong in the future.
  3. Sorry to hear of your SD card problem. Have you bought another.one now and tried it? The dealer not taking it back is poor show.
  4. Don't worry about that. Just glad the thread has helped you ☺️ let's hope the warranty pays out 👍
  5. When you took off the turbo did you check the boost pipes as they can often split, causing the car to go into limp mode.
  6. Here's the itinerary: Got our itinerary, what are your thoughts? Leicester-penzance Day 1: Penzance-dartmoor national park, Torquay, Plymouth. Day 2: Penzance - ? - lands end, lizard point, Newquay, coastal road - ? - Leicester. Day 3: ? - Leicester. Day 4: Leicester - York - Newcastle Day 5: Newcastle - coast road, royal yacht Britannia - Perth. Day 6: Perth - dundee, research ship discovery - wick. Day 7: wick, Whaligoe steps (I know it's wrong direction), Sinclair's bay, John o groats - Inverness. Day 8: Inverness, lake district - Leicester.
  7. If you're already after a modded one then it sounds like you've got an ideal car. What's the service history like? Ideally this should be full. The engine may not be as durable now it's been modded there will be more strain on the engine but as long as servicing is kept up to date then it shouldn't be a problem.
  8. Welcome to the forum Andy, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 I think that's what they call sods law lol
  9. I thinks there's not much you can do unfortunately. It's not a great enough amount to take to small claims court.
  10. This could be caused by warped discs.
  11. You shouldn't encounter any fault codes as the map has already removed them regarding the cat if you see what I mean. If you do then a diagnostic check would need to be carried out or another remap.
  12. It's all in the service history of it's full Audi history you should be fine. Just watch when the cambelt and water pump need changing
  13. To my knowledge isn't it a speaker that enhances the sound? If so it could be a wiring issue or speaker issue? My advice would be to get a diagnostic check or get an auto electrician look for failed wiring.
  14. Vagcom or vcds are good. My advice would be to give the car a good blast once a week for 30mins at least on the motorway.
  15. Sorry to hear that. No idea to be honest. Can you source a second hand one?
  16. I've heard good things from both. I think revo do good tuning too.
  17. Fingers crossed it gets sorted quickly for you ☺️
  18. Definitely worth contacting a retrofitter to see how much they would quote you.
  19. Definitely worth asking the warranty company/dealer. But most of these warranties aren't worth the paper they're written on. From the looks of things the part is easy to install.
  20. Darkside developments are supposed to be good. Along with Revo.
  21. Fingers crossed for you.
