May be of interest to some, did a gearbox oil change and got 2 litres from: https://www.audipartsdirect.co.uk/product/genuine-audi-manual-gearbox-oil-1l-g060726a2-g060726a2 £25 delivered and no connection to seller but seems a good price. Apologies if not permitted to link on forum.

Good evening, as is often the way i am back in an A2 that I propose to use when fuel hit £2 a Litre near me! I rescued the 90 off here and I hope to address a few key points (mechanicals) and use for the next few weeks. I dare not keep it too long as I will get sucked into building a car like...

Odd title and in a bit of a pickle really. I have a 90TDI that has been a labour of love when bought (a basic car with faults that I made into the almost dream spec). I have added bose, RNSe, Cruise, rear parking sensors, rear cup holder, sports heated leather (no lumber as early seats but...

So looks like my steering rack has finally decided it’s tired and fancies a change! while I could buy a used one I can’t risk the unknown for this and a localish company do a refurbished rack for around £130. The challenge I have is getting the o-rings for the pipes. assume these should be...

Sadly I am losing the will today as could not for the life of me find the end of the bonnet pull. I knew there was an issue with the release as declared by previous owner but as weather was half decent today I wanted to have a go at replacing it. I would usually look at my other A2 to see...

After falling out with poor service and customer care at a couple of audi dealers near me I have started to use Tetbury Audi for all my audi needs and parts. Simply put - wish I used them sooner. They work hard to offer value for money and customer support. I have struck quite a good contact...

Just back from collecting my second TDI 90 (the black one!) Up on miles (152k) and what I would describe as a genuine car! Needs some cosmetic TLC but mechanically very tight and drives well. Nice spec, sport, cream (i believe ) leather and alcantara, rear bench seat, front fogs.

HI All, thought might be worth mentioning, GSF Carparts have 42% off everything at present using code FEB 42 so got a new tensioner for 35 delivered, I suspect mine needs replacing next time I service so nice to save on a pricey item. Was for my TDI 90

Thought I would post this as very little experience on the FSI. I visited an A2 FSI owner Thursday evening as they asked me to scan their car due to poor running and starting when warm with engine light on too. Fault codes Address 01: Engine Labels: Redir Fail! Part No: 036 906...

Hi all aside from a well known Internet auction site is there any other reputable RNS-E sellers about? From what I can gather best option is to get a mk2 version ending in B that needs software downgrading to convert to an a6 unit.

Approximately one month ago I finally managed to source a 90 which I have wanted for a long time within my strict budget. It has taken years of searching but the ugly duckling has now been treated to much love and 4 long days of transition towards my own holy grail / dream car. I originally...

I am after a little advice please if possible from those that have done this in the past. I have an opportunity to swap clusters in 2 audi A2 tdis in order to gain DIS in my car and keep the donor car complete. I appreciate that it will entail some wiring which has been covered but I would...

HI All, after the recent threads about the MYP box and securing a 90 with a shot DMF i elected to scour for an MYP box as my mileage is cruising on the motorway. As I bought the car with the DMF already shot I had no idea how long it had been bad (trade based dealer sale) so I was nervous to...

Hello all In the endless battle to get the power steering working on my pesky a2 tdi I am trying to look beyond all the parts I have swapped / tested in the hunt to resolve. It looks like I have a gearbox in my car that was originally not from an a2. When trying to locate the speed sensor...

Hello all, I am settle on the Monroe shocks (ordered) but want to do the springs too and after hours of reading previous posts the Spidans seem to foot the bill nicely. As usual I need them quickly, has anyone recently sourced and any idea on lead time to deliver? I need to do 2 A2's this...

Hi to all reading this and hoping someone in the masses can educate a man that "believes" he has tried every combination of locking pressing buttons, ignition on, off, door manual locking etc! Searched previous threads and am stumped! What I can confirm: The remote was working 100% prior...

I hope that someone can perhaps save my sanity here and offer a little guidance on the power steering. I have searched previous issues and feel confident I should have covered most usual fixes etc! The history: bought the a2 with no power steering which was diagnosed by Indy garage as a pump...

Hello to all! After a break from A2 ownership I am returning to the fold. In fact I have just bought 2 in 2 days!! Managed to source an 03 plate TDI with a mere 82k on the clock and good history which needs a little work. As some stage white van man "tickled" down driver side which was...

My A2 had dis and had the two options to cover mpg etc. One was left as the long term (Menu 2) and one was the shorter term (menu 1). Having done the dash swap for Terry his has the DIS but only the single mpg, time etc listing on his DIS. Is this a hardware limitation or a coding one as I...

It is with a very heavy heart that I must report that I received news today that my car has been declared as a total loss by the insurance company. WIthout the boring detail it was flood damage caused by driving through water. All was fine till white van drove through the other way...
