Lol not a problem Piotr :)

Glad you got this sorted :) at least you know the pads we're correct :)

Glad you got sorted and glad it was something straight forward :) Cheers Steve

Think I'm going to meet you all at the dibden inclosure because if I go to the services I'll be going back on myself. I've also got our display passes but be warned these are just an a4 piece if paper with our club name spelt incorrectly! We,'ll just use these to get in to the show and once we are on our pitch we'll get rid of them. Oh and as per normal I have brought along drinks, chocolates, club stickers and club flyers. Also I believe Trevor is bringing some more stickers if we need them :) Cheers Steve

Nice one Piotr :)

Shame I didn't see this post earlier Paul as I would have brought my tool kit. We'll all give you a helping hand :)

I have to agree, I think this would have easily lead to problems.

Well done for giving other members the heads up.on this issue Piotr! I do hope you caught the issue in the nick of time and haven't suffered from any water damage in the cabin. Hope it's ok but I'm going to move this thread to the c6 section and pin/feature it. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) I'd imagine that if dvla dont have records for tax then I'd suspect it's been scrapped. Especially if it's not had an mot since 2016. Cheers Steve

Hi John, sorry I've missed your post. Of course we can reserve you a place on the club display :) Cheers Steve

Looks lovely Chris! You can definitely try the fuel sender but don't forget the mk1 TT suffered from fault instrument clusters. I believe 2 recalls we're issued. Cheers Steve

You're welcome, glad we could help :) Cheers Steve

Ah! It makes sense! I clearly lack in logic skills as well Trevor lol 😂 Definitely keep these motoring questions coming :) Cheers Steve

Cliffhanger

Welcome to the forum Ollie, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) Have you noticed if there are any warning lights come on the dash when the beeps happen? I say this as the warning beeps can occur for all sorts of reasons. I'd also advise getting a diagnostic check carried out. Cheers Steve

As it says I've arranged a meeting for Wednesday 9th May at 5pm at mc Donald's in Thurmaston. Attendees: 1. Steve Q 2. Lewiigee 3. Tia Let me know if anyone else is interested :) Cheers Steve

Cloud I can live with but not rain lol

Welcome to the forum Karen, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) Cheers Steve

That's a result Mark :) he's more than welcome :)

So, last weekend my brother and I painted his brake calipers and drums on his Suzuki swift. I appreciate that isn't Audi related, however the method is exactly the same if any members would like to do the same to their Audi. Walk through guide: 1. Jack the car up and remove the wheel. We did one brake at a time but ideally using axel stands are recommend. Also I'd recommend wearing gloves as we found the paint a nightmare to get off our hands!! 2. Clean the caliper with the use of a wire brush and brake cleaning spray and wipe off the dirt. And don't forget to mask off areas where you don't want paint reaching. Brake drums are pre-painted so wire brushing is not required. But brake cleaner is a must and again wipe off the dirt. Don't forget to mask off the areas which you don't want painting. 3. Now the fun bit! We used halfords red paint which has to be applied with a paint brush. We felt this would be easier then dismantling the brakes or running the risk of getting spray paint everywhere. We ended up applying 5 coats of paint, leaving 10-15mins between each coat. Depending on your Audi you may need to apply more or less coats but just play it by ear and use your judgement. 4. Leave the paint to touch dry before attempting to put the wheels back on. Let's face it, you don't want to chip the freshly painted calipers/drums or get wet paint on your wheels! 5. Once the paint is touch dry then refit the wheel(s) and let the paint dry for 24 hours. This obviously means you can't drive your car during that time as the brake dust and road dirt will affect the paint finish. 6. After the 24 hour period you can now admire your work! Or if need be apply another coat of paint if need be. If that's the case then repeat stage 2 onwards. Have fun! Cheers Steve

Couldn't agree more Trevor! :) Fingers crossed!
