New TDI 75 Owner - First steps?

Hi Everyone

I'm New to the A2 world having joined last Saturday when I picked up my 03 plate TDI 75 Sport. I've not covered many miles so far but I guess waving at other A2's is a common thing as I got some very enthusiastic ones on the Motorway (anyone with a silver car & blue wheels?) ?

The car needs a bit of TLC and I think a service & temp sensor are already on the list of things to do. Averaging 55mpg on a steady run suggests something is amiss. I also had a brief period of the car lacking power/boost which seemed to pass after a short rest ?‍♂️

Can anyone help with the official colour name? A new front bumper is needed so I'm on the hunt!

You're quite possibly onto something with the temp sensor. Also, unless your temp gauge gets up to 90 and stays there, replace the thermostat as well. The general consensus would be, get decent ones.

Lovely looking car which will hopefully give you many thousands of happy miles in it.

Agreed on the colour, never thought I’d say it but it’s at least equalled dolphin grey in the face A2 colour stakes if not edging it. ?
