  1. I used to have the NA 5 Cylinder KV Audi Coupe Quattro from the same era, 1987 - not the turbo but the same body shape as the Ur and with the quattro drivetrain, and absolutely loved it and it was a hoot to drive, especially in rain or snow - but definitely a cruiser. That 5 pot sound is awesome. It met a sad end as a track car after it was damaged badly by vandals and thieves before I could fully restore it.
  2. Not sure - depends on what the import tax would be. there are always a few for sale in Northern Ireland on UK plates. If you were to bring one back from the south the tax would have been paid twice.
  3. That's why the ones I've seen on sale over here are very slow to sell. The tax is just too much for most people.
  4. Definitely still want it. PM me with your payment details and I will sort it out once you have checked postage and have a final price.
  5. Don't talk to me about the tax - it's an absolute killer - but worth it.
  6. Welcome aboard. I'm up in Dublin. At least you get fuel economy :)
  7. I'll take it - can you post to Dublin, Ireland?
  8. Lol: - I thought this thread was about the Corrado and Monday morning/Friday afternoon cars. Audi are fairly good build quality though, but it can vary.
  9. Just had new OEM VAG engine and gearbox mounts fitted to replace the tired old ones - no more engine judder and the gear shift is much smoother.
  10. Do you happen to have the Bosch part number for the ISV that fixed this? Thanks.
  11. Would you be willing to post them to Ireland? Are they known to be working? Thanks.

    O2 sensor

    Cheer for that - I have an old MAF that I will swap in and test and see what the results are. At the moment there is practically no difference in engine behaviour when the MAF is unplugged.

    O2 sensor

    Power is down and sometimes it stalls when coming to a stop, and hunting idle as well intermittently.

    O2 sensor

    Ok - thanks. What's the best way of testing the MAF?

    O2 sensor

    Ok - nothing wrong with mine so. What about the MAF?

    O2 sensor

    Just wondering if anyone knows how to tell if an O2 sensor needs replacing? How long are they supposed to last? Thanks.
  17. I have the issue where it comes on after driving for a while, usually when the engine gets hot, and a stop/start of the ignition makes it go off again. The VAG-COM error I get is on the left rear outlet valve. Will check those fuses though.
  18. Depending on price, I might be interested in a set for a late spec VR. What are you using to stick them on? Is it some kind of tape?
  19. Don't start me on the tax for the VR! Welcome aboard - I'm up in the big smoke.
  20. Welcome too - I'm also in Dublin
