I believe it's all there except the screwdriver, good cond...

Cambelt Change Shock!

Just had the beast in for a major service & MOT It was pointed out by the garage that the cambelt had some slack in it, and I was advised not to drive the car. :shock: I was expecting the belt change at the next service (giving me another year to save!), but having checked the service history dates,...

Hello

I've had mine off before.

Dead easy from what I remember, just two prong type things (one at either side) holding it in.

If you have a look, I think it's quite obvious. I'll have a look at mine later on just to refresh my memory (and correct myself if neccesary!)

Break even is about 35-40k at current prices/mpg. I intend to keep it for three years covering 20-25k per year. There are arguments for and aginst LPG. If you cover enough miles to (at least) pay for the conversion, then it makes financial sense. Hopefully I will see a slight mpg improvement with th...

Hi, just a quick question. Is your road tax any cheaper because your car is dual fuel? It's just I found this However, for those cars registered after 2001and converted to run on LPG, owners who submit the appropriate documentation (e.g. LPGA LPG Conversion Certificate - click here for details) to ...

No real difference in performance - maybe the tiniest smidge less. The conversion was £2.5k. The filler is near the petrol filler cap & colour coded. Doesn't look too bad. Average price for LPG around my area is 59p. Still works out about 35mpg equivalent. I expected about a 20% drop in mpg when on ...

How do!

Just thought I'd say hello & give a quick intro! Bought my S6 saloon at the end of March. Silver 2001 (reg'd 1st March, grrrr) 120k full Audi history I had it LPG converted pretty much straight away by AFS in Slinfold (highly recommended). Have now covered 10k averaging about 18 mpg on gas, mostly o...
