Not sure to be honest. Like you I did the same and have the rnse unit in my garage. However I'm thinking of going the aftermarket route as I like the idea of having Bluetooth on the screen and a reverse camera possibly.

Very nice 👍
-
No probs at all. To be fair I'm old school and prefer having a dipstick. I don't have too much trust in technology or computers.
-
It's not easy. You'll need the head unit, upgraded antenna, wiring harnesses, additional modules? The simplest option is to fit an aftermarket android auto/apple car play touch screen.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Just curious what you're putting the running gear in?
-
Will keep thinking where else it could be getting in.

1995 2.6E Cabriolet - what was standard spec?
Steve Q replied to Astech101's topic in Classic Audi Club
If it has an alarm I suspect the siren will be in the boot side panel. Electric aerial was standard I think as was the headlights on function. Even my old ford escort has that. If you have a sticker in your boot it might have the different codes on it which would highlight the spec when codes are put in a decoder. Think clear lenses were fitted to facelift cars if I'm not mistaken -
Glad you got sorted 🙂

You might have to contact Audi or an auto locksmith
-
Good job you found the damage before you ran it
-
I'd check eBay but some engines different have the comparability
-
Timing could be out. When was the timing belt last changed? It could have stretched.

You'll have to see if the end matches in your car.

Thermal blinds / window shades for A6 C7
Steve Q replied to jacksonhitt's topic in Audi A6 (C7) Forum
I've seen on the car campers groups on Facebook that people have made their own blinds. Using cardboard as a template then using thermal bubble wrap insulation from b&q, insulating roll similar to make custom ones. Plus this link might help: https://ethanmaurice.com/blog/how-to-make-blackout-window-shades-for-a-camper-van-or-element

All looks normal to me.

It would fit your Avant and is a direct fit if you have electric seats.

It's a rubber compound. You can buy stickers that go over the existing switch gear like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394651879019?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=avueyyaerko&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Most have just replaced the pump
-
Could water be getting in where the roof and boot meet? Isn't there a seal there that could fail?
-
A bit of a random one, are all the jubilee clips holding all the pipes on around the turbo etc tight? I ask as under pressure air could be escaping from I'll fitted pipes that wouldnt be visible when idling if that makes sense
-
Something like this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/384772391273?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=J1Wn6_hyTkS&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

How old is the battery? That'd be my first port of call as a failing battery can cause various electrical gremlins or a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up
-
I think you do have to go from underneath unless you take the bumper off which is more of a faff.
-
Could be the rear light seals or the seal where the roof meets the boot.
-
Ha r you had a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up? Could it be a faulty injector?
