Re: Gearbox service time

The garage i was going to use is called 'CAR-POL' and looking at their facebook page they have done numerous dynamic oil replacements on luxury vehicles. The only problem is they are in Gloucester.

Re: Hello all, this is new!

Hello and welcome! Prices of spare parts for you may be a little higher, but i bet living in Australia your subframes have never seen rust! This forum came about from necessity, the other forum kept crashing and ran over plain text for years meaning it was extremely unsecure. The owner wouldn't do a...

Fix & flip, although the way its going, its a "recommission, sell and lose money because I've spent too much" kind of a deal. :D

Re: Dedicated Audi A8 Head Unit for sale

There's no instructions with android head units, they are meant for professional installers that have the knowledge needed, and it is definitely not plug and play.
