Keep us posted on how you get on

Glad you got sorted

Jack Balsdon: Knocked out a nice little upgrade this morning. The cruise buttons on the indicator stalk weren't working properly so I figured it was time for a new stalk, but wondered if the stalk style from a B5 Passat would work. These have the set/resume buttons as a rocker on the end of the stalk rather than the way the A6s have them which makes it much easier to use IMO. I couldn't find anything online about anyone else trying this but the pins and plugs looked the same between the two stalks on online listings so I tried it. Perfect plug and play, absolutely worth it if you use your cruise a lot and like to use the + and - buttons to modulate your speed. The correct VAG P/N is on the Meyle box in the pictures, cost just over £30.

Getting one from.a similar aged and similar mechanicals as yours would be better.

Or che k inside the front cover of the service book.

Great news, please keep us posted on how you get on 🙂

Glad you got sorted with the part.

Without sounding daft, can you not use the jacking points?

That mpg is fantastic. Think you'll be saving yourself money in fuel that's for sure.

You're welcome, how are you getting on with your research?

That sounds good 😊 were they quoted figures over the phone or have you used their online configurator?

Sorry to hear this Tony, but I fully understand your reasoning. You've been a valued member of the club and you're more than welcome to stay despite not having an Audi. All the best Steve

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. Sounds a lovely car, it's nice to have something you can use in the nicer months.

You're welcome glad the guide was useful. I'd recommend a gearbox oil service to see if that solves the gearbox issue. I suspect though it's a megatronics unit failure. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up.

Which audi are you taking?

Please keep us posted on how you get on. I'd also recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Could be an issue with the quattro system?

Have you looked at the ones I suggested? I'd highly recommend you have one done on a rolling road for best results in my opinion. Make sure the car is in good health prior to doing it.

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Not sure if the DRL can be changed on its own.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch. Have a look on YouTube buyers guides. Check service history for proof of serving, gearbox oil changed etc. Make sure everything electrical works as some parts such as headlights or AC compressors can be expensive. Issues with the egr and dpf are well documented and make sure the mmi works.

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. If bought from a dealer then I'd recommend getting it back to them asap as it's their duty to fix the vehicle free of charge in the first 30 days after sale
