For the first time in what seems like forever, I took my car out to display it at a car show, so today I was at Cambridgeshire's largest car show, the 4KAutoShow held at Newmarket Race Course. There was around 500+ cars on display (my pics just show 1 of the 3 display areas), from various clubs arou...

From the video I wonder if it could be coming from the fuel vapour recirc valve on the back/left of the engine bay as that makes that type of pulsed "rattle" noise which you can hear with the engine running but it "should" be quieter than the tapping sounds of the injectors. The general area - https...

Is it worth a small blob of silicon/sealant etc on the back of the plug to hold it in place "just in case"?

Just find a garage that will give a ticket pass. Easy If only it was that easy! I spoke to both MRC and Unit20 who can't find a local "friendly MOT" place anymore, and there's absolutely no-one close to me in Norfolk who are "emissions friendly" either, and all this (according to a few places that ...

So after a quiet 6 months, what's new? Well pull up a chair and let me tell you the tale of how a simple exhaust change reminded me that - my maths maybe not be same as everyone else's maths, which caused a bit of an issue! First some history on my exhaust - originally this was a complete Frankenste...

If you need it, the procedure taken directly from ELSAWIN that the Audi mechanics should be following can be found here alongside a bunch of other procedures - viewtopic.php?f=47&t=119322

I've only been charged for washers at MRC/Unit20 unless a single plug has been damaged/stripped etc because, as you mentioned, the plugs are just bolts and they're not "single use" so I don't know why anyone would want to replace them every time, just seems odd to me. Hell, even ELSAWIN doesn't say ...

Neither MRC Tuning or Unit20 specifically mention what "Audi" part number they use in their bills, and the ETKA drawing for the engine oil system doesn't specifically show them - however, using the ETKA drawing for the oil pipe from the pump to the reservoir, the part number for that pipe, which has...

Just because of a bad experience I had on another car (Mondeo of all things), I now ensure that all 4 tyres on any car I own are the same make/model, just to avoid grip differences causing a spin if cornering a bit quick, even in the dry :D Outside of that, there's no warnings mentioned specifically...

Yeap, it was discontinued 01/02/2025 but there's maybe one of the last ones in the US (also used on the 5.2 V10 R8) on US eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/323300069443 The seal size is 55x74x8mm if you end up having to get something custom made but I've no idea about the specific material used. ***ED...

still work for me too - I wonder if its because its hosted on a "http" website rather than a "secure" https which most folks have swapped to?

There's literally just 4 things in the system, the fuel cap, the N80 valve, the carbon canister and the pipework, so having replaced everything else so far maybe look at the fuel cap or maybe a pipe/connection has rusted/split. To find a split etc you could try a vacuum test at the canister end as t...

I have to admit I can't work out how to cycle through the Trip Computer to view average speed, average MPG, current speed etc... Maybe my replacement wheel is missing some buttons or something? Hi there, On the wiper stalk there are two buttons which control the displays (trip etc) that you're afte...

Here's mine (Avant) with the additional table so you can attempt to work out what your number should be -

If you're going to use something like the Tune2Air with an Android phone just be aware that it "may" not display track info for songs (hit & miss) etc whereas an iPhone works perfectly. There is a work around for android phones but it involves having to open "hidden" developer settings in your phone...
