  1. That's 2 of us then, however I'll admit I doubt my Audi will be ready (again), still not rebuilt yet 🤦‍♂️
  2. The replacement instrument cluster needs coding to the car.
  3. Get it back to the dealer that sold it to you. The seller has the responsibility to fix this free of charge in the first 30 days of sale. As you're still entitled to a full refund within that time
  4. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Could be an issue with turbo, maf, injector etc.
  5. As I say it might depend if ones powerfolding and one might not.
  6. Get this into Audi asap as it should be covered under the warranty which will be expiring this year as your car is a 2021 model. Unfortunately Audi never learn and water ingress damaging sensitive computers etc has been common issues on Audi's over the last 20 years. I know as my old A6 C5 has suffered from it.
  7. I'd recommend you use silicone sealer to seal them.
  8. This is well documented, mmi requires an update and from what I last heard Audi hadn't come up with a fix yet.
  9. Not as much but anything possible with old high mileage cars!
  10. Most likely a failing turbo or turbo pipes? Check the pipes first.
  11. It's oil consumption issues on the A5 2.0tfsi. as you're looking at high mileage cheap ones I'd avoid the A5, as you could be buying trouble. Service history is key. Check to see if gearbox oil services have been done along with haladex services on Quattro models. Make sure all.lights work, AC works etc as they can be expensive to replace.
  12. Could all be connected please keep us posted on how you get on
  13. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up.
  14. I agree with Gareth on this.
  15. Did you make any progress on this Richard?
  16. Happy birthday Kev! I feel we've all taken more than our fair share of batterings in 2023. Let's hope 2024 is more healthy and prosperous
  17. No probs 🙂
  18. Happy new year to you and all the family Gareth 🙂
  19. As long as they look the same shape then they'll be ok. The only other thing to bare in mind is that the electrical connector may differ depending if it's powerfold mirror or not.
  20. First gen pic 1 Second gen pic 2 difference in wing mirror design is clear.
  21. Id recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Worse case scenario it could be a faulty instrument cluster
  22. Happy new year to you too Kev
