    Red Exclamation Mark in dash

    I tried to search.. couldn't find anything. I stopped for gas (I left the car on while pumping).. When I went to drive away there is now a RED exclamation mark with a triangle in the dash (not the yellow one that comes up when gas is low and other things). Any thoughts on what this can be? I...

    Android Auto constantly disconnecting - Any fix yet?

    So I have read numerous threads of people (on here and elsewhere) that Android Auto keeps disconnecting with no fixes.. This happens probably 10+ times for me on a 45 minute drive and I have to open spotify hit the play button, then tap the Android Auto icon on the infotainment 4-5 times and...

    3rd Cat Delete and Valve Controller Opinion

    I just spent quite a bit of time in my car (factory) and a friends who just did the 3rd Cat and Valve controller.. My opinion might be a little different.. 1. When you are ON the gas in any gear, it sounds AMAZING.. with the valves 100% open in Sport mode. 2. When you are just cruising...

    10mm Spacers.. My thoughts on my 10mm all around with pics

    So I researched like everyone here all about spacers.. What size, how far do the tires stick out, etc, etc.. Well I found for ME, the 10mm for the front was perfect.. I think 12mm for the rear would be ideal as 10mm in the rear is just not enough (yea I know 2mm isn't a big deal, but I can tell...

    10mm hubcentric spacers

    So I know people didn't think it was possible for hubcentric spacers at 10mm. But here is proof. Got these from crestima (thanks again). Putting them on Saturday. I just think 12mm sticks out just a hair too much on the front so I wanted 10mm. I might buy the 12mm for the rear of it bothers...

    Decat - KINDA

    So instead of replacing the 3rd cat with the De-cat.. Could I just bore out the 3rd cat and it would be like having a straight pipe (GRP 3rd cat delete) back there? So If I had to take it somewhere no one would know... I dunno just thinking would that save me a few hundred $$ and still...

    ODB Scanners

    Anyone recommend one? I don't think paying $200+ makes sense for me as I only really have 2 cars and nothing is wrong with the Audi.. Just trying to figure out if it's even worth it to get one. I do get the check engine light on occasionally. Then it goes away and comes back a day later or...
