    factory suspension settings

    I had an alignment done today at ATS. They showed me a before and after and I was surprised at the final numbers. Does anyone have or know where I can find the OEM settings? I just want to make sure they didn't make a mistake.

    power issues

    I was abusing the car today and it ran fine. I still haven't changed anything. I haven't checked the play in the turbo either.

    Replica of Hans RX7 from Tokyo Drift

    I am a big rotor fan and I think that kit looks the tits! For whatever reason the VS decal/emblem was removed and I agree, should have been filled in. But I think the rear is one of the better views, the curves are almost Ferrari-esc and I really like the way the paint scheme follows the lines...

    Thinking of buying RX7

    No. All Rx7's have 1.3L of displacement. Only the R26B, a 4 rotor #!#!#!#!el netting 700bhp in their 787 Le Manns car, made 2.6L of displacement (each rotor makes 656cc). There can be some confusion because of the amount of air a #!#!#!#!el is capable of moving, so for taxing purposes (in Japan...

    power issues

    Are you telling me this thing has a Variable vane turbo? because that is news to me. I will take a look at the compressor impeller. I did take off one of the charge pipes to get at my oil filter that mysteriously spun itself loose. So I will check to make sure all the hose clamps are tight...

    power issues

    My car seems to be having a drop in power, almost like it is in "safe mode". I am thinking it is fuel or boost. I noticed yesterday when I pushed it a little the power band just feel flat around 3k. Then again today it was flat all around, if I floored it there was just nothing. It didn't...

    Audi of Bury St. Ed's

    Today the performed the FREE health check as advertised. They were nice enough to provide me a laundry list of parts the need replacing. As for the gauges, water temp is just over 60 (maybe 65) and the oil temp is just a tic over the cold (far left) reading. They move so that leads me to think...

    Audi of Bury St. Ed's

    On tuesday I was supposed to have my car towed to the dealers to have them reprogram a new key for me. I found my keys so I don't need the new on anymore. But both my water temp and oil temp gauges read low. Will the dealer charge me an arm and a leg to look into that? I read that some...

    tuneable diesels for under a grand

    So the message I got from them was- I mail them my ECU, they chip it with one of their custom maps and then ship it back to me for 300 pounds.

    New Audi Quattro Concept

    I don't think they would be able to put a grill like that into production, there is no front impact zone. If I knew how to photoshop I would doctor it up a little.

    Getting replacement keys for an A4

    72 quid for the key and 35 for the dealer to code the key. And I have to have the car towed to the dealership. The car doesn't have central locking or anything. luckily my insurance with cover the cost to have the car towed. The Dealer needed to make a copy of my picture ID to verify the car...

    Getting replacement keys for an A4

    hey, thanks a lot. The button on my key is only for small l.e.d., there's no keyless entry or anything. 52 quid would be fine with me, I was thinking it would be a lot more. Thanks again

    Getting replacement keys for an A4

    When I bought the car it only came with one key, I should have made a copy. I tried to call the dealer but they are closed on sundays. I'll post what they quote me.

    It doesn't say sport anywhere so I would assume its not. It just has a red td"I" on the boot if that means anything.

    Suspension

    good call. I will ring the dealer. I have also seemed to misplace my keys, whats the best way to getting new ones? I don't have any number tag or something that I could take to the dealer. Will I have to get my locks replaced?

    I am looking at some Bilstein O.E. replacements. I just want to make sure I am buying the right parts. I had an issue with brake pads, 3 pairs before I got it right. Here is a link to my basket= http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/basket/ Also, how would I know if my car has a "sport"...

    Suspension

    Can I use suspension from other model A4? I have a 1.9tdi 4 door and it needs new shocks. Do my replacement shocks have to be 1.9 specific?

    Audi suspensions

    what is the weight difference? 30kg? What about shocks/dampners? I am really just wanting to replace the shocks. The roads in my area are bad and the extra ground clearance is necessary, no Ferraris in my neck of the wood.

    Audi suspensions

    I have been looking at replacing the shocks on my audi. The sites I have looked at have shocks for each different model/trim. I would have thought the only real difference would be weather the car was a wagon/avant/estate or a quatro. What is the difference between the suspension on a 1.8T...

    tuneable diesels for under a grand

    CT's site listed about 150 from my 1.9 tdi (110) not PD engine. I sent them a message as I might be interested in a turbo upgrade as well. :) Thanks for the info guys.

    tuneable diesels for under a grand

    I bought my Audi 1.9 for under a grand but I don't know how "tunable" it is. K&N claims a 30% increase with one of their panel filters, but that seems a little ambitious to me. I haven't yet come across anyone that has remapped my particular motor as I would be curious as to what it would produce.

    Diesels not catching on

    I took a look and could only find the 335d for sale for the 2011 models. So now I am looking at a '11 Jetta Sportswagon. The VW will most likely be driven by my wife and I will and up with another 90's era Jap sports car, which I love. But the Jetta looks nice. 140 bhp 235tq (I think) turbo...

    Diesels not catching on

    More like ignorance. I wish America would catch on and at least start offering some of the great diesels that Europe has. I am heading back next year and wanted to buy a new 520d only to find out that its not available. So I guess I am going to have to break down and buy an RS4. Its just not...

    Diesels not catching on

    I remember a while back reading that Americans just don't like diesel. They don't like the smell of it, it's dirty, you need to wear a hand condom when fill up at the pump, the engines are noisy. Plus we are spoiled with paying half of what main land Europe pays for petrol. It may never catch on.
