I am currently working up in Middlesex, Greenford to be precise and staying in Ealing.
Anybody know anywhere on the run to work or nearby who will service my car nicely, and not charge me the earth?
Cheers

Not fixed ESP!

Nuts, Just fitted 4 new tyres.( Not just for this ESP issue, because of all round wear.) And... My traction control still kicks in at about 5000 rpm in second gear and every so often in third! I have VAG com but there are no errors. With the ESP off, all is fine, so I don't reckon it could be anythi...

My MAF

Umm.. interesting stuff. I took a max MAF on mine of 233.5 Mine is standard, AFAIK and according to QST who serviced it. So is my MAF screwy? But what's the % range for power as standard on this car? If 10% then just a good one. My boost readings all standard, requested 0.8 above ambient, acheived 0...

I am 37 a fine age for insurance.
Thing is though I am considering a B6 S4...

Right then... Off to a PRIVATE road and a bit of VAG comming. Well when I get back home anyway. Work has sent me away in a 1.6 Astra estate. Overtaking is either a thing of the past or dangerous. Also, I have P6000s so will be changing them after your comments. The car was always service by QST whic...

Is my car standard?

Hi guys, My car still puts the traction light on if I push hard... But the rear tyres are getting close to the wear marks and the fronts are nearly new. Waiting for a bit more wear then hopefully changing them will sort that out. Thing is I don't know for sure that my car is not chipped. So, as a pa...

By the way, new reat tyres sorted the Traction ESP light issue. Thanks guys.

Cheers guys,
I will check out the tyres but i think they are all the same.
Are the MAF and boost figures okay.
Is there a page I can view with what they should all be?
Thanks
