Hello all
How do I clean the plastic chrome trim strips? They appear cloudy with water type marks. Oxidisation?
Cheers.
Gary

Air Conditioning Top Up
Hello all
I bought a kit to top up the air con on my 2000 3.7. I've been searching under the bonnet for the 'low pressure' cap. I can't find it, I'm not even sure I've found the aluminium pipes!
I've just looked through your service manual and it indicates the system shouldn't be topped up anyway ...

Boot Light Switch
Hello all
After months of charging and jumping, I have worked out what is draining my battery - and I feel a right twerp!
The boot lights are not switching off.
I went out at the weekend to fix what I thought were their switches - the plungers on the boot lid. But NO!
Please can you tell me where I ...

Re: Sagging Headlight
No warning on the central cluster, but I would assume as it's FL model that the lights are self levelling(?). I did find the second outer adjustment screw and I have raised the beam as high as possible. The wau I parked it wasn't possible to assess the beam height - I'll get out tonight and ...

Re: Rear Passenger Overhead Lights
No joy unfortunately. I got the cluster out and took out all the connector bars. I cleaned up the terminals as well as the circuit board. No change. Oddly, when I pushed the cluster back into the roof opening, the lights came on correctly once! Unfortunately I couldn't get this to reoccur ...

Re: Sagging Headlight
I've had Audrey since October with no lighting issues. I've managed to replace any missing bulbs.
The other day I notice the offside headlight has drooped. presumably they are self-levelling. I took it to my local Audi dealer and they said it may have broken and it wasn't worth my while getting ...
