That was and still is a cracking car.
I spent a small fortune non that getting it all right only to sell it (stupidly) a few months later. I regret it to this day.

Good luck and what's next?

It's worth a go. He might pop on here from time to time or maybe another owner is on here and knows.

Jesus? Resurrection? Who's that? I'm a Jedi.

Thread Resurrection time...

This is up for sale at a car dealer. Does anyone know what state the car was in when it was recovered after the theft? any damage? I've sent the original owner a PM but I suspect he's moved on after all these years.


Any info would be useful

I think I can make it this month, let's see

The only important thing to have is a GPS unit with a rapid update rate (not what you have embedded in your smartphone...

Do you have any documentation to back that statement up?

Shoppinit wrote:Feck me, thos vboxes ain't cheap. I think I'll stick with my vagcom and only get 1% accuracy instead of 0.5%.

What were you looking at? VBOXMini or PerformanceBox?

You only need a PerformanceBox for this sort of application.

In case you didn't know you can rent this equipment from the manufacturer, whether it's the PerformanceBox, Vbox or whatever. Although, if you're making changes I'd want a good solid before and after using the same equipment so owning one is ideal. Maybe someone would lend you one, if you were inter...

£900 is clearly a big old discount from the fitted price at Audi but it's still a huge chunk of cash for what is a relatively cheap set of parts on the aftermarket shopping list. From my initial investigations, I was able to roughly price up a standard, similar sized (not smaller) oil cooler and ada...
