now I found myself looking at these, but RHD and JDM... yo If I import one I should be able to sell it on at a decent price, too. But only if it's a turbo. Found a couple of interesting ones yesterday from 2007.... - Bret

ich habe eine von 2002 und bin bisher auch bei -3xC ohne Probleme geblieben. Göteborg ist warm. Sehr warm. Eisfreien Port, sogar... - Bret

bis -25 gibt's gar keine Probleme, bei unter -30 wird's interessant. Wo geht es genau hin? Einige regionen sind etwas wärmer als anderen... - Bret

ich bin dran. - Bret

Drei buchstaben bedeutet eine Explosion in der grösse der Suchterm-Tabelle. Heisst nicht dass es unmöglich ist, aber es gab und gibt wesentlicheres zu tun. - Bret

Hallo @AudiA2Bayern, wer lesen kann ist klar im Vorteil. Beide emails die du uns verschickt hast enthalten kein Email addresse. Ohne gültige E-Mail addresse kein Freischaltung. Also, um zu zitieren: ohne Email, nein. - Bret der gerade ziemlich irritiert ist....

Er war und ist ziemlich hart im Nehmen. Ich habe auch kein erfolgreichen Umbau im Englischen Forum in erinnerung, also gehe ich davon aus dass es sehr wenige davon gibt. - Bret

Auto hat Tüv? Kein Problem. auf der andere seite von 100dB vom Auspuffanlage werden die hellhörig... - Bret

Planung... <seufz> muss noch ein Datum mit Lohimaa ausmachen. Dat hab' ich aber noch nicht gemacht. - Bret

wenn schon wachs drauf war, dürfte der Abtrag richtig einfach sein. - Bret

knete als erstes. Bilt Hamber kann ich empfehlen. - Bret

Das sieht aber sehr gut aus. Was genau hast du gemacht? - Bret

Reicht nicht ansatzweise... deswegen macht man Wachs noch vorm Winter drauf. Und danach wieder. Ich bin gespannt wie der Octy aussieht im Frühling. Aber Grundsätzlich? Eis und Schnee lassen sich nicht wirklich schonend runterbekommen. Und ja, es hat Heute wieder kurz geschneit hier. Nur 4cm Eisschicht vorm Haus und sonst gut 2cm Split überall auf den Gehwegen. - Bret

was willst du dafür sehen? Finde das €6k nicht unangebracht wäre aber völlig funktionstüchtig. Sonst eher €5k. - Bret

"limp mode" - see "Boost problems with a TDI under load". This can also mean the car refuses to go more than 60mph / 100km/h, maybe slower. A restart may "cure" it, it may not. Gearboxes go before engines and clutches tend to last very nicely indeed.

Hello, so you bought an A2. But.... Climate does hot / cold when it shouldn't? Doesn't push air around correctly? Flaps. Scan. Water in the boot? If there's no damp roof lining, it's the flaps behind the bumper (4A0.....), if there's damp in the roof and you have an OSS, open it and clean the junk out of the drainage system. No one-shot on the windows? Press down and hold 2 seconds at fully down. Pull up and hold for 2 seconds at fully up. Press down and hold again. Now retry. A specific door doesn't trigger the interior light? Microswitch. Scan and then replace the lock or massage the length of the switch trigger. Boost problems with a TDI under load? You probably have a hole in one of the boost pipes. Search with soapy water. It's also possible your intercooler leaks (oil is a clue!), but start with the rubber pipes and work your way through all of them. Rear interior light doesn't work properly? Make sure the solder pads on the connector are good. Clunks when moving the steering wheel but the car is stationary? Upper mounts. Clunks with slight steering lock going over bumps? Droplinks. Strong recommend: Meyle HD. Gearchange isn't slick? Try adjusting: see youtube for videos on how to do it, you'll need something with exactly 5mm diameter, I'd suggest a drill bit. Misfires on the 1.4 Petrol: depends on what the engine is. BBY has multiple coils, AUA only one. BBY is picky about genuine packs or not. AUA doesn't care as much. Both are picky about spark plugs and cables. If you've already proved that the coil packs are fine (by moving them to a different cylinder and seeing if the misfire moves or not) then a last resort would be the wiring loom. Injectors rarely fail - though it's possible - and a dirty throttle body should just create poor performance. However, I'd also recommend cleaning that as a matter of course. "leaks" from the front of an OSS are generally because the front drainage pipes are clogged. As with the others, clear with a small cable tie. Door cards: the doors have two sections, the window frame and the base. They are bolted together with two tx40 bolts. If there is excessive wind noise, adjustment may help. The cards themselves are bolted to the door inner skin. The inner skin is the seal between the window side and the dry interior, so if there's a poor seal behind that aluminium inner skin, you may get damp in the car. Taking the door cards off themselves is easy (2 x tx25 under the armrest, one in the tweeter location), then check what's leaking. OSS also fails reasonably often if it's not looked after. Fixing one is neither cheap, easy or fast, so either check it is working before purchase or be prepared for a several hundred € / £bill, at least, depending on where you take it. A replacement essentially needs a jig to be positioned correctly. A K&N doesn't appear to make much difference in the numbers. An FSI really does run at 110C. It's also probably the least reliable of the bunch. Only 90TDIs and FSIs have Disc brakes at the rear as standard. Chipping TDIs is done frequently with decent results; performance improvement on a 1.4 is difficult to say the least. Yes, there is only one rear foglight. No, there isn't an easy way to replace the speakers.

^^ no further comments. I'll check later tonight if I get the opportunity. - Bret

jetzt müsste es funktionieren....schauen wir mal. Ist nicht unbedingt so einfach wie es sein könnte. - Bret

Ich wette auf die Audiostrang zum Verstäkerchen unter Beifahrersitz. Für deine Kabel würde ich nur die Seitenteile demontieren, mehr muss es eigentlich nicht sein. - Bret

agreed, that it's unlikely. I'd remove the aircon control panel, too, and see if that makes a difference. - Bret

no, it's not something that's been an issue here, at all. I'd start with disconnecting stuff and running around with a multimeter. I'm assuming WOM already checked the earth points on both sides at the base of the A-pillars. - Bret

yep, the problems start now, though, because stuff like insulation is getting old and brittle.... - Bret
