Will see how this one goes, i'm sure this sensor is exactly the same as the one Audi would sell me ... same manufacture etc just without the Audi tax included!

They are identical with VAG coding / text / logos etc so could well be the same part. They seem to be the one that everyone goes for ... I think Audi sell them for £75 ish. Cheap enough to replace if it goes again ...!

Had another sensor fail on my A4 yesterday - this time it was the brake vacuum sensor. The Car advised me to continue driving, so I did. When I got some, I ddi some research and came across a number of horror stories from people who helped driving and ended up with a bricked ABS module and a 3K...

Just tried this trick again via https://www.cjs-cdkeys.com/products/YouTube-Premium-12-Months-Pre%2dloaded-Account-(Global).html and can confirm that it still works. I've just received a pre-paid 12 month YouTube account.

I can't remember now ... I'm sure I paid via PayPal so address was automatically added. I thought that but given they give you an email account and you can change all of the passwords / recovery emails etc, I took the risk. All ok though, have been using it for the last 3 months ... I'll just...

I used the VPN trick until this year when they started to crack down on signing upto a Turkish account. You can buy an account online, I thought I'd give it a go - it's been flawless and have changed all of the passwords etc - it's a lot cheaper than paying monthly...

I love Waze but find the traffic data isn't as reliable as Google.

Had to wait 2 weeks before I had a call (which I missed) and then an email to say they had an offer for me ... managed to get them down to £44 a month so basically what I was paying before. I probably could have got a better deal if I had waited it out a little longer but just wanted to get it...

Just had my renewal through - they wanted £60 for the below, currently paying £47.50 .. Sky Signsture Ultimate TV Add On sky HD Multi screen Ultra HD They’ve offered me £52 through retentions chat however I feel like playing the game so have requested to cancel, let’s see what I get!

Audi earned some massive brownie points from me, from dropping the car off (without an appointment) to picking the car up - 24 hours! Could not fault them this time round. We’ve just arrived to Devon complete with roof box and doxg in the boot .. car (and dog!) behaved flawlessley.

Just had the diagnostics through from Audi - it's the water pump that's failed which is a relief as it was due to be replaced anyway!

Essex. If it wasn't due the Water Pump / Cam belt change anyway then I would have taken it somewhere else ... as the Water pump is usually the main cause of these leaks It makes sense to get them to do it and then they can look for leaks whilst the bumper is off.

Yep, that's what I've read too - unfortunately it's out of warranty! I took it to a local garage this morning - the coolant system is holding pressure so it's a little strange. I've just dumped the car at the dealer for them to squeeze in the belt & pump change this week as I really need the...

Audi have quoted £880 for belt & water pump compared to Halfords at £1100! If it's the water pump I'll get them to leave it and will try not to drive the car for the next week or so whilst I wait for the Audi appointment. If it's a hose I'll get the local place to fix it for now so I can at...

Started my 2017 Audi A4 B9 yesterday and had a warning for low coolant - checked under the bonnet and the reservoir was empty! I've filled the tank to max again and doesn't seem to have gone down overnight so I suspect a slow leak / pipe that's cracked. I had the garage take a look quickly after...
