    Timmus Audi A2 Upgrades, Retrofits and Repairs

    Hi Tom. The DIS on my 2005 TDI is missing pixels once it gets warm. I would like it repaired or also upgraded dependent on your time and cost etc. My problem though is I live in Felixstowe area in Suffolk which is along way from you. If you are ever down this way I would appreciate you doing...

    Door striker plate adjustment

    Hi Steve, I have checked the door by pulling the top part of the door trim inwards whilst driving and makes no difference to the wind noise so sounds like it is the door rather than the top part of the frame. Many thanks again for the earlier advice. James.

    Door striker plate adjustment

    The door gaps all look okay and same as the other doors to be honest. If it is the window frame then that would have to be taken off I take it to improve things? Nice to see you back on the forum again Steve! Regards James

    Broken actuator arm on FSI

    Thanks for that advice and will get my mechanic to check the swirl flaps are okay prior to fitting the part. I have always run the car the last six years on Tesco Momentum or Shell V-Power and obviously will continue to do so! I have recently put through a egr/carbon cleaner through the fuel...

    Broken actuator arm on FSI

    Thanks for all the advice. After spending a while trawling through the internet I have located the part no 036129061A. It is a vacuum control unit with arm and manged to find one from Autodoc in Germany for £91 delivered. My local Audi dealer in Ipswich was useless telling my mechanic that the...

    Broken actuator arm on FSI

    Its definitely the actuator arm which controls the swirl flaps that is broken and luckily doesn't affect the drive of the vehicle. My mechanic showed me it and I was there to see it was broken. I will contact Crewe Audi thanks just to confirm that the part is obsolete thanks.

    Broken actuator arm on FSI

    Its the actual arm as my mechanic showed me the item a few days ago. Will contact Crewe Audi to confirm thanks and if they are obsolete its another nail in the coffin to keep an A2 with the hassle of finding new parts. I don't really want to fit a second hand as it might not last long as its...

    Broken actuator arm on FSI

    Does anyone know where to buy a new actuator arm for my FSI as its broken? My mechanic has told me that the Audi dealer in Ipswich have said its an obsolete part now and cannot be ordered. The car still runs okay but has the EML light on all the time and MOT is in September.
