  • Audi Cabriolet - Heater Matrix 12 Aug 2017 (Forum)
    I own a final edition Audi Cabriolet 2.6 which I have enjoyed for the last 11 years. It has been maintained to a high standard, it has cost a lot of money over the years, but I have enjoyed it so much I don't mind, and when I listen to that V6 it sings.
  • Can I avoid the new luxury car tax? 10 Oct 2016 (Ask HJ)

  • Audi TT - TT vs 2 series 29 Dec 2015 (Forum)
    We'll keep our Honda Civic so the wife has a car and so that we have something more practical if needed. I test drove an Audi TT and pretty much fell in love with it - the only issues being that the rear seats are even less practical than I thought and there's a hell of a lot of options to get the car where I want it. I tried a BMW 2 series as well and was underwhelmed, especially at the dealer who seemed to really not care if I bought a car or not.
  • Audi A6 rear screen heater has packed in - what should I do? 3 Feb 2015 (Ask HJ)

  • Diesel Auto for under £4500, What would you buy? 25 Dec 2013 (Forum)
    Her first choice is an 2003 onwards Audi A3 2.0 TDi DSG, great car wrong gearbox. Second choice is 2003 onwards Audi A4 1.9 TDi multitronic which again i like but its CVT Ive worked with Mercedes all my career and dislike older C classes because of there poor quality, rust issues and old mans image so we are running out of options!

  • Audi A4 B6 2.0 Fsi petrol 2003 - Cylinder head noises at startup 7 Nov 2012 (Forum)
    I'm getting an intermittent clatter and/or chuffing/rubbing sound from the cylinder head on this 70,000m car. It has a full Audi service history before I bought it earlier this year, the oil, filter and cambelt have been changed in the last 6 months. The correct parts were used by an HJ recommended garage I have trusted for years.
  • A6/A4 - Audi A6 or A4 Avant 7 Feb 2012 (Forum)
    I can't do without turbos now from driving diesels. We will be looking at a 56/07 plate with high milage, ex fleet car with full Audi service history and timing belt changed ect ect. Does anyone have any experience of these cars? What are they like to drive, run and live with day to day? Are the diesels a better drive? I cant stretch to the 2.7 or 3.0 models and the 2.0 A6 seems way underpowered......
  • Audi A4 B6 - Breakdown costs over £2k AA Warranty not accepting 27 Jul 2011 (Forum)
      It’s been just over a year i bought an Audi A4 The car suddenly cut the engine, it started again drove it and it cut again, I called RAC they said they could not find any faults in the OBD and they said to drive it home and they would follow us in case it broke down.
  • Audi A4 Avant - Winter tyres - my experience so far 12 Feb 2011 (Forum)
    A set on Ebay but the seller was dodgy in replies to enquiries, so following advice here, simply rang Audi. 15" steel rims in stock for £38 plus VAT. A bargain. Next the tyres. Looked at the reviews here then tried to find them. My local fitters "highly recommending" Vredestein quatrac 3s which they happened to have in stock but online reviews suggest this is an all season tyre rather than a specific low temperature (UK winter type) tyre.
  • Recommend new tyres for my Audi A6 Allroad? 9 Sep 2010 (Ask HJ)
    I would value your recommendations for tyre replacements for my Audi A6 Allroad. It is on 245/40s and at present has Pirelli P Zero Rossos at the back...
  • Audi A3 + S3 - Dealership servicing - Sump threads stripped. 2 Apr 2010 (Forum)
    the service rep on the phone asked if anyone else had carried out work on the car (guess he's looking to pass the buck) but i replied only your dealership has ever carried out servicing.  i'd expect the highly trained audi professionals to not screw up a simple oil change! the car is 7 years old and this is the fifth time the sump plug has been out (i have all the service receipts) and the last time it was out was at the same dealership so i assume it was their previous service technician that crossthreaded the plug in and decided not to use his integrity and report it!
  • 8 speed gear box. Enough? Audi A4 5 Nov 2008 (Forum)
    I have been enjoying a few weeks in the sun. I got a free upgrade from a Passat / Accord / Volvo to an Audi A4 TFSI 1.8 CVT. This Multitronic / Tiptronic version had flappy paddles and EIGHT speeds to play with. I found the gearbox aspect to be very clever. Driving in auto, just a touch of either paddle and it switched out of auto and displayed 12345678 with its choice of gear highlighted.
  • Audi A4 B6 (2001 - 2005) - 2002 1.9TDi Engine died and won't run right 14 Oct 2008 (Forum)
    Hi, Looking for some assistance after my usually reliable Audi 1.9TDi failed today. Around a mile from home it started what felt like a misfire. I changed down and it cleared off and then approaching then next corner and dipping the clutch, the engine died.
