Re: Squeaky Noise When Foots Planted ??
Agree Trix, but reporting it to the dealer is always a good thing in my book. Probably won't speed things up but at least they know of the issue should a fix be a long time in coming and the car ends up out of warranty etc.

Re: What MPG are you 140 owners getting ?
40 - 45 per average tank full. Drive about 100 miles a day but do have a heavy foot
The addition of average speed cameras on half my M1 drive has upped it to closer to the 50 mark for the time being though.

Re: problem with dsg

Mines in there as I type, part also on back order. Slipped out downchanging from 6th to 4th the 1st time to pass a lorry (...

Re: Anyone driving a TDI??
I went from a 55 plate 2.0TDI A3 Sport (dsg) to my Roc 2.0TDI GT (dsg) I don't feel like I drive the Roc any diff than I did the Audi (spirited, lol). However the car as a whole feels much more responsive and is a joy to drive. The downside is my average MPG has bottomed out at a new low. My daily c...

Re: Hole free parking sensors

Was thinking of taking the 12v supply from the socket in the boot. Any input / advise? Only trouble with that would be it being constantly on, taking it from the ...

Re: Rattles and road noise?
I guess I'd be much happier with an Audi .. I hate rattles and road noise on sports cars. Errr No. I have a 2008 TT and it has about 5 different rattles that need sorted. I just P/x'd my 2006 A3 s-line owned from new over the last 2 and a half years and went back to Audi at least 4 times for strang...
