Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

Thank you, most definitely but it'll be worth it 🙂 not aiming for too crazy power as it needs to still be useable for road trips etc. Turbo and injectors are good for 280ish

You're welcome 🙂

Looks stunning! Great pics too 🙂

Funnily enough I've been to see a chap this evening and his workshop who can rebuild my engine with all new internals and skimming the head. Then considering hybrid turbo, upgraded injectors, 4 bar map sensor, straight through exhaust, port/polish head and then a remap. Then looking at upgrading the clutch and dmf.

Yep I'd say bushes. A good place to start would be the suspension arm bushes.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Looking forward to seeing some pics once you get it 🙂

Thanks for the update, shame they couldn't find any issue. Sorry to hear you have a new issue.

Thanks Stephen happy new year 🙂

No probs at all please keep us posted on how you get on

They can code and retrofit. Other members have used them and been happy with the results

It'll need to be coded. I'd recommend you speak to autologics or Audi retrofits to give you an idea of costs of retrofitting.

Sorry I meant clock spring. It's parts of the steering wheel

Glad you got sorted too. I just can't see why al cars can't just come with normal dipsticks. A bit of pub trivia during the occupation of France during WW2 by !Removed! Germany, Citroen lowered the notches on the dipsticks of their lorries so that they would suffer engine failure. https://www.drive.com.au/caradvice/citroens-genius-act-of-sabotage-against-the-!Removed!-in-world-war-ii/

Could there be an issue with the click spring on the steering wheel? Not sure if it would affect the airbag or not

That doesn't surprise me with 37 years of use. Sounds it's in the right hands to get it back to good health 🙂

This looks stunning!

Well Ironically I used to work for available car and their cars a quite good. This was bought from Hilton car supermarket in Milton Keynes. I genuinely thought we'd get a better quality of care from a supermarket 🤦‍♂️

You're best bet is to go underneath. Smashing the grill is a last resort in my book.

Yep. And this was bought from a car supermarket!

That I'm not sure.

Audi customer services.

You'll need additional wiring look, the matching clock spring with the new wheel and for it to be coded to the car.

I'm shocked that a main dealer are even selling this car to be honest. If the finance agreement was taken out lat month, I wonder if the person who bought it and took out finance has rejected the car in the first 30 days as there was a problem with it. This could also explain why Audi are being defensive about the history.

Hi Gareth, you're correct it is long life, an error on my part. Yep your correct it should have the service warning. As such It should have had 3 services by my reconning
