Hi All, Was going for a bit of a general check over today. When checking the oil in my 1.4 petrol upon pulling out the dipstick it had lost its end however then on trying to re-insert the dipstick into the tube the dipstick won’t go all the way back in. I assume the end that fell off has...

I’ve noticed a few posts where people have had their cars damaged when lifting the car up to with do a tyre change or some work underneath the car. Is the Audi A2 difficult or unconventional in how it can be lifted? If so how concerned should I be that garages wouldn’t know the correct...

Hello! Was out today to give this Hydrocleaning a shot. Normally a £99 thing but I got it for £50. I'll report back after a week to see if this has done anything for my 122k FSI. I am a little skeptical, and from what I have read "Sea Foam" does seem to have more evidence of results. Has...

Just collected our 05 plate 1.4TDI SE in Silver Very much enjoyed our first long journeys in it over new year (particularly the 60+ mpg!). We've got a couple of the, what appear to be, common issues to iron out, namely: Random flasher ticking whilst driving, the indicators seem to work...
