Re: 2.0 tsi timing chain and tensioner

Honeycombe Lower Grill

I’ve noticed my lower grill is damaged. I want to replace it. Firstly where is the cheapest place to get a new one??

Re: MDI and Iphone

Brand new lead purchased (crazy it was cheaper to get one from Germany than UK) genuine part and its all sorted working perfectly now. Obviously the second hand lead was faulty.

Re: MDI and Iphone

Reducing the Aux volume worked and the sound quality is acceptable now but I take your point on the Aux volume. The iPhone works fine but keeps cutting out as if not connected then reconnects I think the lead I brought is probably at fault but feel loathed to pay our for a brand new one unless in su...

MDI and Iphone

I’ve updated the firmware on my mdi and brought a genuine although second hand lead with white collar. Originally the sound quality was awful but a quick search showed the AUX level needed to be set lowest volume and this improved the sound quality. I can select folders, playlists etc.... all fine w...
