so as the title says im onto my first audi after my honda crx vtec!
i am quite happy with my buy but hve noticed a few things and was wondering if there was anyone who lives in sussex that could help.

1.ticking noise from engine from tappets and injectors also a black box between coolant and fluid on left hand side

2. when stand still you move from left to right and you can hear creaking that goes away after you reach 5mph. i think this is stress on the springs as car has been lowered way to much ( raising it this week)

3. leds on the screen on dash are faint and a few are going, is this an easy fix?

4. drivers side door creaks

5 clutch pedal feels loose


also looking for a few random bits and bobs

- back seat ash tray!
- ciggarette ash tray in front


also if you chip the car do you have to make any mods or can you get away with just chipping it? if so does anyone know any good chips availble which give good power but also economical?


cheers:)

Hiya mate, cant help with your probs but a can of wd40 for your creaking door will help..
have your car remapped after you've got all your strange noises sorted and you dont need to do anything else with a remap.. just ask if you need any advice etc mate... :beerchug:
