I just checked my purchase history and the KYB part number I fitted to my TDI is RH3243 - they give you the correct height

Mine has been like that since I had the car - 5 years so no its not urgent :p

And 8 months later the other side is broken half way up. Somewhat disappointed with these spidan springs after all the recommendations received on here. Anyway just updating the thread in case anyone ever searches for broken spidan springs.

I can leave my spare motorcycle trickle charger on it no problem. Just surprised it went flat in just 4 weeks.

I thought I better check as we haven't used the car for at least 4 weeks and sure enough dead as a dodo. Charging it with my motorcycle battery charger at the moment. When I first started charging it the alarm started to beep and only stoped once I put the key in the ignition and turned it...

Had the spring replaced today. £50 labour not bad. Now that the horrible rattle is gone I'm getting a clunk from the other side when the steering is turned. Had a quick look and all seems ok without taking the strut out...

On 15" pepperpots....

Yes replaced with meyle hd top mounts .

Gonna be honest here this happened 2 weeks ago and I didn't have time to inspect until today. So the rust could have built up since then.

Wife hit a pothole with the front wheels on the nearside and the spring on the offside broke off at the bottom. Any idea why the spring on the side that didn't hit the pot hole would break? Quite disappointed that it broke after 2 years when it replaced the original sport suspension that was 15...

£300 cheapest local garage to me. Audi want £600+

I had already checked the cups and nozzles are free of debris. will try and get a camera in there to check the alignment.

The gear changes are smooth again and no crunch in reverse... All I did was drench the selector tower with AC-90 (penetrating oil) then grease it. And 2 weeks after this the gear changes were fine again and have been since. Any ideas what the culprit might be?

AFAIK gearbox needs to come out! That's why nobody bothers. A £10 part changing costing £300 labour not worth it

@Silverpig Did you sort this as my A2 similar symptoms

Thanks Paul, I already changed the oil 5k miles ago! So a Luk clutch kit is all I need or extra bits as well? Will start to get quotes and then decide if to bin the car or not ?

1.4 TDI 150k miles original clutch and not slipping! So far I have adjusted the linkage and greased the cables/mechanism, cleared out the gator/stick from debris and greased as well. this made 0 difference. Without the engine running all gears select fine, reverse is a bit difficult to...

Looks like the common shaft seal leak. Apparently 8 out of 10 A2s suffer fro. It - mine does.

Thanks, that's way too professional looking for me but I'll have a go on the weekend.

The cover on our TDI fell off - happened mid journey so had no choice but to rip it off completely. Does anyone have pictures of their repair bodge ? only the middle screw hole is still useable on ours the other fixing points are broken off. Was thinking of using a big washer in the middle...
