I just drove to the shop about half an hour ago. Noticed EXACTLY the same problem. Came back, logged in and found this posting right at the top. Hey, this ain't a bad site! Thanks for the diagnosis VST...I shall advise Listers when I book in for my service later this week to replace under warranty.

Navman 3450 GPS Sleeve with SmartSt Pro V3

Looking to get a 3450 sleeve (£175) for my old Ipaq 3850. The sleeve comes with Smart St Pro software but you can also use 3d Ordnance Survey maps with it if you end up somewhere remote that's not covered by the SmartSt maps. What I like is that it is a totally mobile solution with no wires. You can...

Not good...suppose it's good that it happened outside your house and not in the middle of town in broad daylight. If it is some electrical module then Audi deserve a good slap...surely such things should fail safe?

Clive, Try the 'advanced search' on the Audi used car page. There were two B5's going recently...one in Peterborough and the other at Lincoln Audi I think. Both were 'Jasper Green'. Only other place I can think of is Autopoint in Birmingham. They sell high end ex-lease cars 3-4 yrs old with FSH. Hav...

'93 Audi Quattro Commercial

Take a squint at the following link: http://vorsicht.org.hk:16080/news/testdrive/00s4/ It's an S4 review which actually makes pretty painful reading. However, towards the bottom of the page, you'll find a thumbnail-sized commercial called 'Audi - Driven by Instinct'. It shows a quattro (S2?) going u...

No, its a standard exhaust. The rumble appears to be deeper pitched than the noise I would expect the exhaust system to make. Noticed one other thing...on a smooth worn tarmac road going downhill, I dipped the clutch and could hear an intemittent deep bass noise (almost like a sub-woofer) as if the ...

Rumbling noise from underneath car

My car emits what can only be described as a rumbling noise (not a whine) from about 2200 revs. I'm not sure whether it is there all the time and more noticeable at 2200 or whether it actually starts at this speed. If I dip the clutch and the car is free-wheeling I can still hear it. The rumble appe...

Independent Specialists - Know their RS from their Elbow?

Looking for a good independent specialist in the Midlands - came across one called Mackenzies in Lichfield. According to their ad in the yellow pages they have been going since 1979. Anyone have any experience of these guys?

Any other good independents in the Midlands? :blackrs4:
