Hi MF. I'm trying to find a cause for why my wife's 2005 A4's warning beeps have stopped working. Please see my post here.

As I said there, maybe I'm not using the correct nomenclature, so I'm not finding an answer in the forum or anywhere else. Can you (at the minimum) tell me if there's a better search term than "warning beeps?" Any other advice would be much appreciated too! Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Shortly after I bought a 2006 2.0T Audi A3, experience a cam adjuster failure (all the bolts popped off while on idle) caused my valves to be damaged.

I am in the process of taking the engine block out and replacing the valves. Can someone recommend what parts I should also replace to keep the longevity of the engine, other than just the bent valves?

What other tips would you recommend for cleaning the engine?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advanced!



Michael

Hi guys, i have a question regarding the color codes on are springs...
I'm in the market for a set of Sport springs to put on my wifes A4, her spring codes are front: OJH and rear: OYJ i found a set of S4 springs that have these codes: front: OJH and rear: OYG
They have the same color codes but the load index is different on the rear set of the S4 (7 instead of 9) What should i expect? Is it going to make the A4 lower on the back (reverse rake) ???
Thank's for your help. Ben

Hello I have a question regarding my A4 Avant. When I accelerate from a stop or at speed my engine /turbo or transmission feels jerky or clunky. Sometimes an outright banging sounds. Also the revs stay high after I accelerate and don't come down and respond normally.
Please advise if you know this problem.
Regards,
J

My 2007 a4 has a smell coming through the vents. at first I thought it was the battery which I recently replaced and sears had forgotten to put in the vent tubes but after having the vent tubes installed it still has a smell.
of course the vent tubes only go down 8 inches or so and I wonder if the smell is still coming from there?
It does not smell like oil or rubber. dealer said it might be the alternator which is $750 to replace or a bushing rubbing.
thanks in advance for any help.

Hello! I hope I am doing this correctly. OMG I purchased this beautiful "looking" 2002-A4 Sedan and it is so needy (like me). I have a great mechanic who I believe is financially set for life having the knowledge and experience repairing these fragile beauties! K, enough. my issue is he isn't available till Monday and I have needed to fill the antifreeze coolant.... container, I know its where the fluid goes cause its pinkish and says G12. I mixed it 50/50 with distilled water. I keep having to put more antifreeze fluid in the reservoir? I do not notice it leaking nor odor? Its the weekend and am hesitant to drive, even just around town. Can you please advise when possible. even though I will seek my mechanic ASAP, id be grateful for any suggestions or advice, this might be the start of a conversation start up at your next story telling of how you have a new one with big issues! Thank you for your patience, seemenita.

Default cricket noise when gering down

Audi Q5, 2.0 TFSI 2011

Now Spring has come I opened the right driver window and I am noticing
a strange cricket noise like ''crrrrrr...' (as you were scratching a spring )
when the car gears down from 4t's gear or so to a stop. I think also
I can hear it when the car gears up, but is less noticeable.

The noise is consistent, and comes from front underneath the car.
Is this something I should worry about or not.
Thank you.

My 2011 Q5 burns lots of oil .
Is it normal ?
I called the dealer and they said they will replace some parts for me but I heard lots of ppl have the same oil consumption problem.
I feel like we spent lots of money on audi but the outcome is audi is not that good , even the Korea suv us better then audi ..
What do u think ?
