The Audi Thread

^^ How does he drive over any bump more than an inch without scraping his tyres?

Slowly, the car goes up as the wheels go up. Probably hard sport suspension.

I'm pretty sure it's just low. Many Cape Town folk like very low cars here

This is another level:

Is it only me that thinks it should stay at stock height? Or worst case a little lower?

Yup. Looks ***, probably drives even kakker.

Let the engineers do their job.

Which one? The manual? There've been a couple for sale recently. Quite rare. Mostly autos though.

Congrats!

Really? I had to google this as I have never heard of anyone doing this.

It'll clear the cobwebs. Easiest is to fill up at the Somerset Mall Sasol, and ask them for a bottle of 2SO. Gooi that in before putting diesel. And then every 5000km or so, gooi in a bottle of Wynns diesel cleaner.

Always drive your TDi gently until it's nicely warmed up, then drive it like you stole it!

Some pics of my new baby. It just arrived today. Valet, licencing, etc tomorrow. Picking her up on Friday.

For the first sentence I'll take it under advicement, but this article from Car strengthens my concerns.

I'm getting goosebumps at the thought of the feeling of buying a brand new car and seeing her exactly like this.

Enjoy the love-making, you'll be the first.

Did you go for the upgraded LED lighting / directional indicators?
