Welcome to the forum Jose, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 great car and lovely country you're from 🙂 cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum and Tara, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 its definitely worth trying to see if you can move the battery whilst it's still connected but there won't be much wiggle room in my opinion. cheers Steve

Glad you got into the car eventually Francesca, even if it wasn't the way you hoped! Glad it's not the battery etc and you'll need to get Audi to recode the keys for you. It also sounds like you need the drivers door lock and locking mechanism looked at. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum John, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Glad you got your issue sorted and Gareth is right in saying that not many members report back to us once they've got the problem sorted. So thank you for helping other members in that regard 🙂 cheers Steve

Bump.. Please can people let me know if they are still wanting to attend? I'd rather avoid a situation like last year where we only had 2 cars on the stand. I've already paid and ordered my tickets. Cheers Steve

Definitely Gareth, I do my best with having a good sense of humor. However It does have a habit of coming out at inappropriate times for rare occasions! Yes, appologies Barry. Please keep us posted on how you get on. Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum and Francesca, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 i see you posted this 7 hours ago, did you get sorted? my first port of call would be to try the spare key as this will most likely indicate an issue with car rather than the key. I'm also wondering whether the battery could be flat. Are there any usual imobiliser lights flashing as normal which aren't flashing now? the last thing I'd advise is call your break down company. cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Harley, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 my only advice would be to either ring the supplier of your grill to see if they sell or know who could supply one. Or try contacting the company as shown in the picture/link to see if they will sell the part separately. cheers Steve

VAG cars started to be fitted with cheat devices as early as 2006 after the PD engine was superceeded. But your right in saying it's mainly newer models affected with the 1.6tdi and 2.0tdi engines. Cheers Steve

That sounds like a great result Em! 🙂

Inn

Not a problem Steve, hope it's useful 🙂

Lol 😂 glad they got you on medication for it Gareth. We certainly don't want two John Prescotts around! 😂 Thanks, I have mentioned the raised issue with Trevor yesterday so we'll see what we can do 🙂 not a problem Gareth, it's what us mods and admins are here for. It's not caused additional work, honestly. Updating the rules is a simple yet effective temporary measure 🙂 cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum and David, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 sorry to hear of the loss of your grandfather. im hoping someone can help you here. cheers Steve

What a game! I've been playing NSP undercover and nearly completed it again 😉 Can't beat Abit of gta San Andreas or Gran truismo 4 either!

Totally agree Sean. Ed seems a genuine bloke whereas Mike just was sleezy.

Welcome to the forum Steve, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 the a7 is a lovely car and you won't be disappointed in my opinion. Here's a buyer's guide which might help: Cheers Steve

Well Gareth, I'm highly offended of you for using the word Jaguar on here and do not feel it is appropriate, haha! (Only joking!). Truthfully I'm not sure exactly who has dealt with the programming but it's something I'll discuss with Trevor. Are you wanting us to get rid of abreviated "rude" words or getting rid of the "!removed!" Icon for all words? I think the latter would be harder to do so in order to not to allow any members to get offended. But thankfully we have a great bunch of members and luckily this type of behavior doesn't happen often. I too had a chuckle when a new member joined and his name had been "! removed!" As his name was d.i.c.k. I only knew this was his name because of his email address! Thank you for your kind words Gareth and it's nice for our hard work to be appreciated. We definitely do try our best for all our members 🙂 But we should be saying thank you to you to Gareth as your advice and guidance towards members is greatly appreciated by all of us on the admin/moderator team 🙂 Cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Steve, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 can you tell me whether or not the headunit is lighting up at all? cheers Steve

Welcome to the forum Asif, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 the video Paul has shown you.is very useful, but also check out the a3 8p section on here as well as the cars for sale section. my word of advice would be to check to see if the a3 you are looking at has had the emissions recall carried out. If it's had it carried out recently then I'd be asking questions as to why it's for sale. There's been a lot of documented issues surrounding the emissions recall. I can also say this from first hand experience after working in a volkswagen service department. If it were me I'd be avoiding cars that have had it done to be honest. cheers Steve
