  1. Hey Joe, is the service history from Audi? If so Audi will have a record of it so you can ring them and check :) and your correct the waterpump needs to be changed at the same time as the belt :) oh and I believe the belt should be changed around 80k. Cheers steve
  2. Nice try Dan but unfortunately wrong lol
  3. Welcome to the forum Jeffers :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) i believe the engine holds 4.6 litres of oil. And normally a long life oil is used. Please see the attached link. I appreciate its for the 1.8tfsi Audi A4 but it may be useful to you :) http://www.audi.co.id/etc/medialib/ngw/sea/id/product/technical_data/pdf.Par.0001.File.pdf/audi_a4_1_8_tfsi.pdf cheers steve
  4. Welcome to the forum Joe :) youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) glad your pleased with your a3 :) it looks lovely :) it's certainly a change from mx5s and certainly an improvement on the Kia! by all means get involved :) we try and get the club as active as possible :) we have various events coming up and your more than welcome to display your a3 on the club stands at the events :) cheers steve
  5. Wow! That's a big forum! To be fair fishing is popular. Thats fine, just thought I'd offer :)
  6. Your welcome :) I think your right. As the car loosens up a little, then the mpg should improve :) thank you :) we try and managed a friendly and easy to use forum but again it wouldn't be the same without the members input :) what forum are you an admin of? I see your in the midlands. I'm assuming the East Midlands? I ask as we are attending vag Tuner Live at donington park on Sunday 16th July and your more than welcome to join us and have your a6 on the club stand :) Cheers steve
  7. Welcome to the forum Nick :) youll find members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) the a6 is a lovely car :) id say the best mpg you'd get is around 50mpg personally. Cheers steve
  8. Whoop whoop! Heres the next one
  9. Correct mark! :) erm wasn't it in a hitman movie?
  10. Right. My tickets came today! :) your pack should contain: 1. Yellow wristband (one per ticket purchased) 2. Red VIP entry wristband(one per ticket purchased 3. Exhibitors vehicle pass (this will hook on your interior mirror) 4. Event information leaflet 5. An invoice of what you've purchased. Cheers steve :)
  11. Keep persevering, you'll get it sorted :) the a5 is a lovely car :)
  12. How was the egr cooler Matt? Did she throw any codes up for that? Hopfully it gets sorted soon :) cheers steve
  13. Your welcome :) glad we could help :) i find it's usually sensors that go rather than modules or relays. Sensors can be sensitive (sorry no pun intended). If the relay had failed then in my opinion you wouldn't have the fan working at all. Cheers steve
  14. Welcome to the forum Pawel :) sorry to hear your having issues. You'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) i would say the sensor is playing up as the temp gauge is working normally. cheers steve
  15. That's true! You can't beat better brakes! And rather you than me! Thats true! The electrics can play havoc!
  16. Welcome to the forum Damian :) sorry to hear your having issues. As you've seen the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) cheers steve
  17. This 1996 Audi A6 2.6 is owned by fellow member Sam1977 who lives in Gibraltar and who has kindly allowed me to share the image on this topic. He is the second owner and the car has covered 250,000kms!
  18. Thanks Sam, il add it to the topic :) hmm, I don't think they would bolt straight in. However if you put the runners off your current seats and fitted them to the new seats, then they'd fit :) the only issue you have is whether the new or old seat electrics are compatible. That's even if it's applicable to your car or the new seats. I feel your pain with regard to the Ac not working! It's worse for you as it gets very hot in Gibraltar! My ac doesn't work and iv been quoted over £1000 to get it fixed. In my case the pump/condenser is bust. But it's not so bad as it's colder here most of the time but in Gibraltar you need Ac! If you then get the bodywork sorted you'll have a very smart looking a6 and one of the best out there. As I say, she's certainly going to be a classic in the not too distant future! Youve got great mileage out of yours! And thank you! I find as long as you keep on top of the maintance they'll just run and run and run! ;) the highest mileage a6 like yours I ever saw was on 494,000 miles. It was in daily service and did a commute from Scotland to London at least twice a week! All the best steve :)
  19. Hi Ian, I'd have to agree with Trevor and would say it's the clutch or even the fly wheel. Cheers steve
  20. Welcome to the forum Nigel :) nice to see someone else who lives out my way :) sorry to hear your having issues and have to agree with Trevor, I'd say it's the dials. Cheers steve
  21. Welcome to the forum Jay :) sorry to hear your having issues. Youll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch :) i would say a wheel bearing but as it only happens at low speeds I'm stumped. Wheel bearings normally make noise when worn at high speeds. Sorry I can't help more. Cheers steve
  22. Hi John, welcome to the forum:) sorry you've had issues already. Please keep us posted on how you get on. I find if you have a courtesy car they will be more inclined to get the car sorted as you have one of theirs. Sorry for the delayed response to your topic by the way. I'd missed the topic. Complete fault on my part. Cheers steve
