Its your rear drop links mate... they need re-greasing. Very common problem, and is a diy fix.

Sweet, cheers bud... i was waiting for your results before i made a move...!

Go on then...

I mean it in the way that the driver of an s model is obviously into his cars, so he's not an automatic **** like most audi drivers (according to clarkson!).

Right - lets all email Tim...

...and its an import - which he doesnt mention

There is one under my carbon cover! It was G/M as it was done by someone before.... Needs some serious rubbing down to get a nice flat surface.... Even though it looked ok, you could still see the remains of the original finnish.... Oh and it chips!! There was one just on ebay US, black alcantara with orange stitching... looked schweet.... And no reflection!!! That does sound sweet with the alcantara, but im a diy kinda guy...! I can imagine the center console chipping too... Jay/Paul - got any plans to combat this?

NICE ONE! Cant wait for that...!

Hi Dave, You can access both of the cogs with just the bonnet open. You need a long thin screwdriver and a torch to reach the bottom cog and see what you're doing - like an 8 inch screwdriver or something. I think there is a certain size posidrive which will fit it, but i did mine with a flat head. It takes about 5 minutes of rotating to get it to move very far, so dont give up on it! As far as i know, all lights have the adjustment cogs.

Looks good mate. The strut cover. Not the bag. Im waiting for someone to do a gloss black attempt at the center console though...

+1 Alot of things rely on the ACM Its a white box-unit behind the center console... would take about 45mins diy to swap it out if you can get a used module from a breakers. ...but i couldnt say if that is actually causing the problem.

That looks cool. I love the street sleeper look. Welcome by the way mate... sure this isnt your car and you're trying to get some interest?

Hi Mate. I bought a US-spec headlight for my UK zed, and it was angled to the right at first. The top cog on the lights is for height adjustment, and the bottom cog is for left to right. It takes a lot of turning to get it to adjust - park up about 6 feet from a wall and get adjusting - you'll see it moving gradually!

Cool!

I'll go against the consensus here - i cant stand audi's as i think they all look the same (apart from a white TTS i saw a few weeks ago, which had me waivering for a minute). But at least you've gone for the S model, which i will at least give some respect to...!

hahaha nice one

Yeh, they were making me have 235/35/19 on the front and 255/30/19 on the rear Make sure you find out what sizes you need for 20's on here first, then tell them exactly what you want.

Congrats mate. You know, the dryer and washing machine was the first thing i thought of when i saw the thread. So are you going to re-invest the winnings or quit while you're ahead?

Mark, i got my wheels from them, and as i've mentioned on about 4 different occasions - their service was awful! Cant fault the wheels or value for money when they did arrive, but their customer service was shocking!! They kept telling me my wheels would be here in 2 to 3 days, and every time, they wouldnt arrive. In the end it took 6 WEEKS for them to arrive, and not once did they phone me - i even booked days off work to wait in for them, for them not to arrive. Also, they tried to force me to have some stupid tyre sizes which were wrong for the car, and twice i phoned up to check on the order status, and had to make them change my order to the tyre sizes i wanted. They really were awful! But knowing all that, i would use them again, cos they've got to be one of the cheapest suppliers out there, and they did come through eventually!!

You should have battered him mate, and taken the clamp off while he's unconscious. Thats what i would have done - seriously. I cant stand wheel clamping bastards. Thats actually really pi55ed me off now mate, so i cant imagine how you feel.

candy apple red:

Yep, for me HoK Candy Apple, always loved that... but i really want to see a zed in BMW Estorill blue...

Thats useful info - cheers Andy... I'll try and do this on my lunch hour at work tomorrow, and let you know
