Me too.

Not exaclty in the right place I guess but I'm getting rid of the lovely Roc to go to an A4 as a company car.

Does anyone know of a decent Audi forum as I've drawn a bit of a blank.

THanks guys and sorry to use the A word!

Cheers

I did this and it cured my rattle completely.
A brilliant suggestion, many thanks guys. :-)

I get around a 75mm wide smear right in my eyeline on the drivers side, piss poor if you ask me.

It wipes fine on the upstroak but smears like mad on the downstroke.

My 6 speed DSG can make a few clunks, only noticeable when the windows are down mind you.

That said, the lovely "PARP" from 1st to 2nd when driving in "D" is something I love!!

Well hold the front page!!!!

I did 640 miles in the last three days post temp senseor replacemtn. Seems fine at the mo.

I got my car with a DSG 7 gear,but no paddle included.

How do I go about retroffiting a new sterring wheel, What parts will I need and if you have the part No, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks for helping out

Take it back, sounds odd to me!!!

Temperature and speed sensor fitted, oh and cruise control.

We shall see if it's fixed the issue. I've got a 450 mile round trip (ouch on fuel) planned for Thursday, so watch this space.

Well mine has been with VW for a day and a half only to be told "yeah it's the temeprature sensor" which is what I said when I took it in. I've now got to take it back for them to fit it!!!

I have had a quote of £205 for the CC to be fitted to my Roc, seems like a good price to me and cheaper than factory fitting the option!!

MIne is having it done this week once the DSG box is sorted!

Did it again yesterday!!! Happy days.

Booked in with V Dub now. They say it's a temperature sensor near the mechatronich unit????

I had the dreaded "Six Gear Shuffle" last night. Going along the A14 doing 75, popped it into 5th to get past someone and hey presto, no power, car revs to 4k on its own, all the gear lights flash, foot pedal light flashes. It then slips into gear and then 10 seconds later, does it again!!...

I phoned round a few dealers today asking about switching off the drl's everyone of them said they had never been asked that before one guy went and checked and said "it'll cost between £60-£80 as it needs a diagnostic check to see if they can be turned off"...aye right... :lol:, so it lo...

Its my midlife crisis too, but heck could be a lot worse

Absobloodyexactly mine too!!! I'm 41!! Cashback!

I know it's not massively important but I wondered if any of you guys have checked your 0-60 time?

I would be interested to see the post Bluefin times for a 2.0 TSi

I have tried it myself and got a 6.41 but dropped a goolie with a big amount of wheelspin. (standard 2.0 TSi)

Cheers

Well I tried mine the other night, woked like a dream although I ballsed up the amount of acceleration and got too much spin!

I still managed 6.41 to 60mph though.

I have a DSG and when it's in D mode (changes early) and you get heavy with the right foot, it makes a lovely "parp" sound.

I just wondered what casued it??

They are crap, on a journey back from London on Friday night I ended up sitting lower than normal in the seat as the smear was right in my eyeline!!!

And expect a lot of wheel spin.

I had a 170ps Audi A4 and it was a pig to get the power down from a stand still.

I had mine switched off by the dealer.
