  1. I highly doubt it as I'm sure they've outlawed that function haven't they?

    Q2

    Engine wise it'll depend on what kind of mileage you do. And whether or not you want to be raised up?
  3. If you're using Waze then you're using a better system that's in real time compared to the satnav which will be more out of date.
  4. Nothing done to my A6 really. Just research still regarding its rebuild. Currently researching turbos. Done a great job on yours.
  5. Think they're defined as door seals. The door blades are metal and on the outside. Mainly found on older A6 c5 for example
  6. Thank you for the recommendation 😊
  7. Sorry to.hear companies haven't responded.
  8. Seeking some advice on turbos please. Been quoted: £590 for a stock turbo. £600 for a GT2260v hybrid turbocharger. unit has been fully rebuilt and machined to accommodate larger GT22 turbine wheel and 60mm GTX style CNC cut performance billet compressor wheel. Expected power potential is 280bhp+ at 2.4bar boost max. £1340 +VAT + Shipping for MDX438 - STAGE 1 Turbo including billet aluminium compressor wheel. Rated at estimated Power Output: 250-260bhp £595 excluding vat and postage (starting at) For stage 1 Hybrid upgrade on your existing turbo based on the current turbo being in good order not requiring any additional work Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Obviously if I fit a hybrid turbo I'll be fitting other mods when the engine gets rebuilt.
  9. Looks a lovely car 🙂
  10. No probs
  11. I'd like to think there should be some good will from Audi as it's not a component that should fail 6 months out of warranty unless you've done galactic mileage of course. Which you haven't
  12. Nice one 🙂
  13. It isn't a cheap job.
  14. Glad you got sorted 🙂
  15. Is it a new pump or second hand one? Either way if it's not the original pump then it'll need coding. If it's anything like my older A6 the injection pump is linked in with the imobiliser so needs a professional
  16. I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could be a simple wiring issue or worst case scenario a faulty head unit.

    Q2

    Q2 is just a raised up A3. Audi discontinued them along with other Audi models due to production costs. They're narrowing down the amount of product range to save the money. However this won't affect getting parts for them. And resale value should be ok.
  18. I find preventative maintenance is key with older Audi's. A lot of people do t spend the money on them as they're not seen worth it due to their age. Like you I'll never get the money back I've spent on mine.
  19. Ah right. Yea you could do
  20. The chain can stretch. You'll hear a rattle on start up. I think the change is roughly around 100-120k miles if memory serves me correctly
  21. Is this the part? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313847139283?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ojhAk5fdQZO&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=IE07kO4STZy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  22. You'll need a letter from Audi to confirm the year of build and spec etc to get it changed with DVLA. Very odd Audi weren't willing to get this rectified
