    I did! Only had the car a couple of weeks and had a few minor niggles which have driven me mad!

    Its only a 57plate, A4 Advant TDI 170 S Line... Love it though

    Good to hear it Simon! I've done 2000 miles now and she's not missed a beat! Really enjoying driving no matter what distance ahead of me. Good times

    Yours is the 140 isnt it? By all accounts, not quite the same issues as the 170... I always seem to buy the trouble makers.

    I think a couple of weeks have blown all the cr@p out of it... Running much better now.

    Pleased yours is good! They are lovely cars.. We made the right choice.

    Thanks, the fella said that he was 99% sure this would cure the problem as he has come across it before, he also said if it did not solve it they would sort it for free

    its going to cost around a grand...
