RE: Re: RE: Slight boost hesitation
Not unknown for a new MAF to malfunction early on- IIRC some are reconditioned too although can't imagine Doug used a recycled unit- is all the pipework in order since the boost leak test etc or has omething come adrift? Maybe thats why VAGCOM didnt flag anything. On my first healthcheck both my (af...

Got done last month doing 86mph on the A27 by a camera van at the bottom of a hill- sneaky barstewards- after a 2000 mile mercy dash to Italy to pick my daughter up near Venice in a hurry when the ash cloud came down..... Had been cruising the autoroutes at about the same speed on the cruise, never ...

I think the most important issue is not whether it's worth less to someone else or more to you as the present owner- especially if you're not planning on selling it any time soon. Just looking at the replies above its obvious that everyone has different ideas about what looks good or not- Audi never...

May be nothing to worry about, I've got the B7 setup already for 2 years now and I get the same thing if I just brush the brakes- probably because the pads have been knocked back during high speed cruising- if I tap them slightly and then apply them hard there is no wobble at all, or the next time I...

RE: runescape plz help
Alastair, I will bow to your superior knowledge of bots and the like and am sincerely hoping English is NOT his first language or Mr Brown has got it more wrong than anyone suspects, education-wise.....

RE: runescape plz help
Eh? You have to log on and make a conscious attempt at spelling and grammar that the majority of the forum members can understand. No mention of R's, RS's, numbers or even 'car', so how are we supposed to take this guy seriously- looks like his thesaurus and dictionary had a head on collision. If he...

Think your car looks awesome Jules! Even like the colour... I've got CH's too in P1 anthracite for that stealth look and once I move into my new gaff in a couple of weeks I'll have it looking like yours in short order too! Lol Just the fact that like so many others we've stuck two fingers up at the ...

Morning Mr Mooch, I find that as a guest on your esteemed forum I am duty bound to be polite whilst engaging in inter-model sabre rattling and sparring. My bottom line is that I don't care which Audi we're all talking about, I've driven the B5 model exclusively since 1995. 1.8T (from new, 95-2003- n...

Good evening Mr Moocher. The most common problem with the RS4 gearbox is 1st gear synchro going west, but it does rather depend on how its been driven and whether a shortshift has been fitted and incorrectly set up. I'm not sure whether its a universally accepted problem- I'm on my second RS4 since ...

I stand corrected then! Thanks Olly, I WAS listening to Doug and heard '7' mentioned- just didn't know whether it was 7 away from full hard or just '7'. No worries, the combination is still sublime.... Rutted and potholed road surfaces upset things a bit but that may have as much to do with bigger w...

RE: anyone been up against a 997 carrera 4s?
Got into a 'light-hearted' tussle with a Carrera on the A3 a few months back and did manage to pull out a bit of an advantage in 4th when the power kicked in, may not happen every time but the fact that an A4 estate will usually hold its own even after 10 years still flags up with the average 'sport...

Nice one, you won't regret it. I had EXACTLY the same issue- wasn't planning on doing the suspension as had just had the brakes replaced, but when the car was off the ground I noticed the offside rear spring had fractured on the last coil expediting early replacement all round - a big hole in the wa...
