Removing dash / door inserts?

Can anyone advise if it is possible to remove the inserts from the dash and door cards, without stripping the dash or removing the door cards? I.e can they be pryed off?

I wan to try and recover them.

Cheers

RE: Re-map is it worth it?

Thanks guy's, it would only be a re-map I don't plan on any other mods. I'll let you know results if I get hold of a map.

Re-map is it worth it?

I know bhp gains are minimal but in peoples experience, does a generic re-map improve your S4? Improved drivability better mpg? I've only ever re-mapped turbo stuff which is obviously a different story but, I've seen mpg increase as well as improved performance. Anyone running just a re-map? Thought...

Where to get a power steering rack from?

AS above, I believe my rack is knackered well actually the garage reckon its just the solenoid that controls the variable assistance, but they don't seem to be available seperately!

Anyone know of anyone breaking one?

Has anyone else had this problem?

Audi want £750!

Are you sure? I was under the impression there were 2 aux coolant rads?

RE: Aux rad leak

Is there a quality issue? Where do they leak from? Repairable? Should I replace with OE or is there an upgrade available?

20 questions! Cheers

Aux rad leak

Ok, serviced today, I have a aux rad leak, which I believe is common, what sort of price should I be looking at? Are there 2? is it worth getting both changed?

Cheers in advance.
