    Heavy Misfire After Rain

    Morning all! I’m new so be gentle. I couldn’t find a similar thread so starting a new one. I inadvertently became the owner of a 2001 1.4 AUA while I complete an engine swap on my truck. She’s a little rough but I love her. Last night we had torrential rain, and now she’s misfiring like no...

    Alternator Leading to Misfire on 2?

    I only just last week bought into the A2 family with a 2000 1.4 petrol AUA and just over 100k. I can say its been an interesting few days. So - I have a misfire on cylinder 2. Typical ( in as far I have read ) issue in that it happens generally on idle. Have replaced plugs and coil...

    A2 1.4 AUA LHD Petrol: Another coolant leak but where from?

    Hi All, I had a recent coolant leak which turned out to be coming from the thermostat housing where it bolts onto the head/block. That was replaced and all was well but now there is another coolant leak. I can actually see a pink puddle of coolant just above the driveshaft near the gearbox...

    Aftermarket exhausts?

    Does anyone have any experience with the cheap aftermarket exhaust systems sold on EBay and like? You can get a complete system for £100-200 which really isn’t too bad but the quality might be a concern. The thing is my exhaust started leaking badly, haven’t checked yet what’s up due to it...

    Removing 1.4 petrol (AUA) intake manifold (+ System Too Lean troubleshooting)

    Anyone know of a guide or have any tips on how to remove the intake manifold on the 1.4 petrol? I had a quick peek and it seems straight-forward apart from the fact that's it's in the tight space but of course a few words of advice from someone who has completed this would be great.

    2001 A2 1.4 AUA LHD 83000 miles Oil leak from undertray/sump?

In fact the sump itself is quite manky but the block upwards is dry. The sensor at the bottom of the sump and its wire are very...

    1.4 16v rocker arms/hydraulic lifters

    Evening all! As you (may or may not) know i have an intermittant misfire on my 1.4 16v (AUA) A2. This has got progressively worse and is looking more like a knackered hydraulic lifter or rocker arm (very tappety at tickover; this is when it starts misfiring) on cylinder 1. It could also be a...
