Water pump and thermostat housing leaking coolant
Steve Q replied to MarcusA3's topic in Audi A3 (8V) Forum
It does seem expensive, I'd recommend getting another quote. Bare in mind you can order some parts second hand- 1 reply

True I guess. Are they any brighter than standard?.

My A6 c5 2.5tdi has covered 344k on the original engine which has now unfortunately let go. It's been owned by my dad then me since new. It's been serviced as per the servicing schedule at the very least. And earlier where need be. I've always been one for over servicing and preventative maintenance. It's what keeps older Audi's on the road.

Can't say I've heard of them. Also you might be better off with a stoplock as apposed to the disc lock.
-
I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. Sounds like the button unit has failed. Replacement should be easily sourced.

My friend had a ghost imobiliser on his t6 campervan and I have to say it's a very good piece of kit. Best security in my opinion

Fantastic walkthrough so far 🙂

Obd port should be driverside side footwell. You'll have to look up under the dash.

Have a look at the battery tray as the water drains can get blocked. Also on my similar aged A6 I had a similar issue and it was water getting through the pollen filter housing. The problem you've got is that there might be a computer in the floor known as the CCM which can start playing up when wet. I know as I've had this issue with my A6.

I'd say yes please! It'll help fellow members for years to come 🙂

Audi A3 - Can i repair the plastic tag/clipper on my bumper?
Steve Q replied to R0shy's topic in Audi A3 (8V) Forum
New bumper would be the easier route unfortunately -
It's funny as I've considered this headlight upgrade to my A6 to preserve the originals.

No I don't believe so.

Is it an actual issue with the sat nav? Might be worth speaking to Audi.
-
The 3.0tdi can have cam issues or did on the A6 C6 era. At least the gearbox is ok for a little while yet. Yep it should require an oil change.
-
I agree with Gareth. Sounds like the dealer is trying to avoid replacing the expensive dpf. I'd recommend rejecting the car.

Good luck with your search. Finding low mileage examples are going to be few and far between
