I know that feeling! And I have to agree with Gareth. £200 for a battery dies seem steep but then again the last battery I bought was for my old Ford escort lol think this image sums it up well...
-
Glad you got sorted Paul :) as I say, think you'll need a new battery!
-
Yep, Piotr is correct. That's the original! As I say have a look near the number plate light as I know on the jag xf it has a key slot hidden near the number plate light. Might be worth a look ;)

Hey Scott, what does the manual say about this? I ask as I'm wondering if it's a ride height levelling issue? In failing that I'm wondering if you have an air leak. When the light isn't on are you able to change the cars ride settings?

Thanks Dan :) we need more members to make it work :) guessing your in? :)
-
Glad you got sorted :) any pics of the exhaust tips fitted?

Hi Paul, only just seen this as just got home from work. Im wondering if there is a key slot hidden on the boot near to the number plate light? (I know you got in the boot now but I'm thinking for future reference) I am somehow doubtful it's the starter motor as the battery as clearly gone flat. If there was an issue with the charging system the car would flag It on the dash. My gut feeling says to me it's either the battery (which would figure due to the age if the car. I bet it's on the original battery). The AA can test the functionality of the battery. Or it's an electrical fault that's draining the battery. I'm unsure what that electrical faylt could be though. Sorry. Cheers steve

That's crazy! Never seen anything like that before! As Trevor has said Dunlop can't just dismiss this. Especially as it's on an Audi technicians report. I would imagine it's on the previous report/video as well. Surely Audi are witness to this? Plus it might be worth asking the dealer if they are aware of similar issues on other Audi cars running dunlops. Cheers steve

Couldn't agree more Trevor! They've just revamped it as well :) my plan is to have our display outside the front of the museum :)

Deffo! There might be some bargains to be had! ;)

Sunday 13th August marked the 9th Audis in the park event as well as a new location. Deenes Park. However, before the show we met at the Chequered Flag Inn in Corby from 8am which allowed us to get to know each other as well as allowing us to travel to the show in convoy. And gave me a good opportunity to thank members for coming including handing out free t-shirts and stickers. We arrived at Deenes Park just after 9am and the surrounding roads were already jammed packed with Audis. On entering the grounds to the park we had to queue in multiple lines before getting into the show ground. I don't think iv ever seen so many Audis in one place! Audis had come from all over, including from Germany, France and the Netherlands to name but a few. On entering the ground we managed to get a pitch next to the dirt track. This allowed us to see all the other cars enter the show and was almost like a preview for the days events. It was nice to see our stand as we at least 12 cars on display! After the Audis had entered the show we all went to have a look at the cars on display. It was plainly obvious why this is one of the biggest Audi shows as nearly every Audi club was in attendance. And the cars ranged from a 1970s audi 100 through to the brand new Audi rs5. The biggest display was by the Audi TT clubs. Not to mention that the police turned up with 2 Audi police cars! Besides the cars and clubs there was a small selection of trade stands. Selling everything from cleaning products through to Audi fidget spinners! As well as hot and cold and obviously beer! Whilst at the show our club did get interest from other Audi owners who wished to join. Two of which came and parked there cars on our stand. This included a yellow 1982 Audi 80 (yellow) and a 1991 Audi 80 (red). By 3pm cars were leaving the show and this gave us a chance to watch the procession of Audis leaving. This allowed us to see cars that we had missed during the day. As a club we stayed until we were asked to leave which was around 5pm. The time had gone so fast! But this was down to chatting amongst ourselves. Overall the event was great and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and will look forward to attending the show next year for its 10th anniversary. Thanks for reading :) cheers steve

Hello all, i was at the Coventry transport museum last month and they had a car club displaying cars outside. This got me thinking and to gauge interest to see how many members would like to visit the museum and display their vehicles outside the front of it for a day? (If I can get permission from the museum) The museum is FREE to enter and they mainly have U.K. Built a cars, motorbikes, bicycles etc on display including 2 landspeed record cars, rally cars and concept cars but it's still a good day out non the less. Heres the link to the museum website: http://www.transport-museum.com/ what are your thoughts? Attendee list: 1. Steve q 2. Dan_avant170 3. Jacques 4. Sven 5. Baggy

true, but on the same token I can't see them scrapping cars which are worth more than scrap value if you see what I mean? As the scheme is coming out of the German manufacturers pockets and they haven't exactly said that they will scrap all the cars. I could see them auctioning the rarer or more valuable cars on.
-
Thanks Trevor :) I was very pleased with the turn out if I do say so myself :)
-
lol I see what you mean! It has a Ford street ls appearance!
-
It will have to be a lot of money to tempt me lol. From what I heard for this scrappage scheme it hasn't been confirmed if the cars get scrapped or if they are sold on!
