Don't get me wrong - in not a big fan of start/stop. When something doesn't work as it should like do like to figure out why. I usually turn it...

Same was said about ABS in that a skilled driver could outbrake it. Most drivers should not be behind the wheel at all so the more "aids", the better...

I've just ordered these rear brake discs and adapters. I'm not sure if they'll make an improvement but with the much improved braking force on the...

Long story short, no joy with cleaning + conditioning unfortunately. An auto trimmer said it's just the single panel that needs replacing so...

Like all things car. Progress gradually dumbs down the driver until they are just there to pay the charges and get nothing in return. I wouldn't want...

I just don't know what the practical benefits are to these start/stop systems. I drove a Subaru with it and the first time it happened it freaked me...

I purchased a used B9 S4 two years ago and put 75,000ks on the clock and the car never missed a beat. The best car I owned. I'd suggest and extended...

Last time that happened to me the kids had left the aircon in the back on full bore. I wouldn't get a RAC battery, try and find a Vata battery like...

For Q5 8R owners, I have the OEM SQ5 Springs. If you want a lower ride like the SQ5 but not slammed, this is not a bad option to go with as the SQ5...

There's been good reviews of this kit over the B8 yellows which are known to be too firm for daily drive but great for track etc. Hence the Green...

You say it like its a bad thing. First thing I did was disable it via OBDEleven. Anyway based on my Jeep (which I could not disable auto stop on)...

Is there anyone/anyplace in Perth who can do this for me? Happy to pay a fee etc
