I noticed today at idle with the Aircon all off I have a vibration, it seems to go away when the Aircon is switched back on... Anyone know a fix for this?

check the air con compressor pulley, I've had problems with these on a few cars with shredded rubber insert or loose drive rivets. putting load on the compressor takes up the slack and the vibration / rattling stops or gets worse

Take my advise and enjoy a car, no need to search a odd problems(which will not be problems after month or two) and new thread for each one...

Thing is, it becomes a problem when the pully comes adrift and rattles like hell, as my wife found one dark wet evening 200 miles from home!!

The B8 and more so petrol is new to me, i am eager to learn and share, a new post for a new problem could help in both aspects.
