I know what you mean Phil! I did find it abit irritating myself!
Truthfully I'm unsure to be honest but I do know the show organisers have asked Trevor and I for a rough number of people that are coming from our club so in order for them to issue passes.
Iv completed the form and sent it back to them and on it they asked for my address, for which I assume they will send out the passes to me so I can give them to members.
Obviously we all will be meeting somewhere prior to the show so I can give out passes then :)
if you want to pay on the gate then that's fine. Il put you down on the list as paying on the gate :)
hope my answer has kind of helped!
Audi has announced new steps towards their electric vehicles by investing more in solar technology.
To do this Audi has teamed up with Alta Devices, and it is hoped that solar technology incorporated into panoramic sunroofs will be able to power vehicle air conditioning and infotainment systems thus improving electric vehicle range.
However using solar technology is nothing new to Audi as solar sunroofs have been optional extras on Audi A8 and a6 models since the early 2000s
anyway, here's the link :)

Hey Chris, so glad your delighted with your a3! :)
you certainly made a great decision on the colour as ithe looks fantastic! :)
sorry to hear about the naff customer service, I do hope it didn't taint your Audi experience too much :)
oh and I do hope you enjoy driving it! :)
cheers

Hey Phil, nice a5 :)
Piotr is spot on. A remap is definitely a good way to get extra power plus a smoother torque curve. It potentially may improve your mpg as the engine will be running less restricted ;)
word of warning though, make sure your a5 is in good health prior to the remap as the extra power will allow problems to present themselves quicker if that makes sense.

As it says really, Audi have changed its badging structure to show the KW rating instead of its litres.
This badging structure has now been first introduced on the new Audi A8 and is being roled across all audi models.
Heres the link for further info:
https://www.motoringresearch.com/car-news/new-audi-power-badges/
heres the table:
badge no. Power output
25. Up to 108ps
30. 110-130ps
35. 150-163ps
40. 170-204ps
45. 230-252ps
50. 285-313ps
55. 333-374ps
60. 435-462ps
70. 544+ps

I question the legality of banning diesel and petrol cars. I think Paul, before they are made illegal the government will have taxed you off the road with road tolls, city tolls, extra parking charges and higher vehicle tax!
Wow that's crazy! I wonder how much an a8 is?!
You didn't get any pics of Audis whilst you were did you? If so you could add them to the Audis from around the world thread ;)
Hey Karl your q7 looks gorgeous! :)
i assume you can get the clip separately? Audi should have a diagram of all the rear bumper components.
I am to say that clip is very rusty! Sorry for stating the obvious!
Welcome to the forum Ian :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :)
sorry to hear your having issues. As Trevor said the best thing to do is check the casting marks.
The question we have to ask ourselves is why would they change a wheel and not want you to know? I know that sounds like an obvious question but when you have the wheel off, check for any damage to the underside of the car and see if any parts look cleaner than they should be.
When I drove through a puddle once which was a massive potholed it scratched and scored the underside of the car. You could see it was fresh but the marks on the underside. Probably worth if you have look under the car too.
Hope iv helped
cheers
