Re: Rear knocking - Not DRC

I still cant get to the bottom of this, Is there any chance that the ARB could have warn out? Reason I say this is when fitting the new drop links they didn't seem to fit very snug inside the ARB!
I may remove the drop links and take it for a spin, carefully of course!

Re: WTD: old oil cooler pipes

Dal, any luck with having these oil pipes made up? I need to order a set but am looking at options before purchasing Audi ones. Cheers

Re: Rear knocking - Not DRC

Its a Saloon. Nothing rolling around, you can distinctively tell which side its coming from and when too. I want to say its a shock failing but would surprise me that both V3 would fail after 5k miles of use! I didn't remove all of the DRC pipework when I fitted the V3 but I cant see that causing is...

Re: Rear knocking - Not DRC

It definitely a strange one, Adsgreen - I haven't looked into the spring hitting the shock yet! is that possible on the rear? Coffey555 - I did have a look at the anti roll bar mounting bushes and they look to be in good shape, however I didn't have them completely out? may be worth a shot! I did no...

Overfueling issues

Hi all, Just looking for a little advice. The RS seems to be giving signs of overfueling, seriously coked exhaust tips, black smoke at full throttle, smells of fuel when idling and decreasing MPG. Now a carbon clean is going to be carried out soon but I wondered if anyone has or has had this issue a...

Re: Full Paint Correction - With pics

That makes such a difference and really brings out the best of the Mugello Blue colour. You must be really pleased. Have you checked out you wash regime now, to ensure that you don't mar that lovely fresh paintwork? Got mine booked in for September (earliest available) for a 7 day correction detail...

Re: Full Paint Correction - With pics

The correction cost me just over £500 and it was worth every penny, I wanted the full 3 stage process. It got rid of all light blemishes, paint swirl marks, mirror scratches and brought the deep blue colour back to life. For a little more they can pay more attention to certain deeper scratches, but ...

Parking sensors only like warm weather!

So ive noticed a recent fault with the hot weather. My parking sensors haven't worked for a while now and were on my list of things to do. In the recent warm weather I have made a bizarre observation, when the suns out and the temperature is above 18 degrees the parking sensors work fine... but when...
