Re: Early shift between 1st and 2nd

Nick,

After the injector and carbon clean.
I had the transmission rebuilt around 18 months ago, had them check it, oil looks good, no fault codes. Leaning toward something not connected correctly after the clean.

Re: Rear Diff bearings

To close out this thread. The diff carrier,tapered roller bearings are made by SKF in Brazil. The numbers on the shell and cone cannot be sourced through SKF or cross referenced to another brand. I ended up finding a low KM diff and installing it. Another good reason to replace the diff oil regularly.

Rear Diff bearings

Hi All, I had a slight whine in the diff between 80-70KPH on decel. The diff was removed and disassembled by my transmission guy. He found one of the carrier bearings had lost its hard face off the tapered roller bearings. He and i have found replacement bearings impossible to purchase. Audi claim t...

Front brake Pads Ceramic discs

Hi All, After 140,000 km on the original pads,the brake pad warning light has come on. Can someone point me in the direction of where to find currently at a reasonable price? Stock seams to be a problem. Typically, how many miles do i have, under gentle driving before the backing plate hits the disc?

Re: Custom or off the Shelf Exhaust?

I had my local exhaust guy remove the secondary Cat's, resonators and x pipe and replace with flanged pipes for swap back if required when selling. Cost was AUS$600. Coupled with an APR map and BMC air filters it makes 405 AWKW on 98RON, happy days and sounds great, but a bit loud on cold start and ...

Thanks Trent. If I hadn't purchased it with the APR tune, I would have got you to do it.

Re: Adaptive Light Defective - error

I have the same problem. Has anyone tried to fit a resistor of the same resistance value as the working electric motor, across the power wires?
