Very electric Avenue! Nice colur Jaraz

Hi Nick, If you are thinking of buying a B6 (didn't state whether petrol or diesel), I believe you shoul be looking for post 2007 aged cars like mine which is a late 2008. Most injector recalls I believe were done on 2006-07 cars as have nothing on mine to report being done on recall. Fingers crosse...

Hi Jaraz, Just plug in and play then with no coding etc for my RNS510?

Is the same kit easy enough to install on the RNS510 and if so what extra leads (if any) are needed?

What model did you end up purchasing and will this connected to a RNS head unit or an after market one? Pics would be great to see also as interested in getting one fitted myself

I don't think they will as your 4 Motion variant will have specific springs in this range. Best off to e-mail them as I did when I queried the full lowering kit on FK. They did respond same day and seem quite good on the Customer Service experience so far

Like the punting of accepting cookies on the web - Big brother will then follow you and hound you down!

Looks good dude!

and loads of filler! What did yo hit?

No major horrors as the unit will work fine without the DIS as the Chinese units are supposed to. If you need VAGCOM then just post on here for local help and pay with beer tokens. RichardSEL did mine and was a very knowledgable chap and quite helpful with putting other things on the car with his he...

Ah, didn't know it was Chinese unit so no you don't require VCDS. I bought a RNS510 so had to get it programmed so that I could have the turn by turn on the front DIS. Your directions will be on the head unit so all okay there :-bd Good luck and please remember to leave the passenger airbag wiring a...

Yes, prize away the silver stereo surround by using a sharp plastic tool or flat head screwdriver with tape on it. Note - leave the passenger airbag below connected as if you unconnect the airbag light will come on and will need VagCom connected to take the light off again - No need to have the igni...

Hi, Sure there have been some posts on this one, and some guys recommend GPS is positioned behind the A Pillar but mine is positioned behind the main unit (magnetically) and just under the coin tray cubby hole plinth behind the main dash. I have no problems with reception behind the main dash. Exter...

I have a 2008 58 plate 2.0 tdi Highline and the extras over and above are as follows:-

Xenons - cornering lights
Front and back parking sensors or OPS
Heated front screen
Dynaudio amp
Phone prep with front keypad (pops out of the dash) - What use this is I have no idea!

Hi All, bought my B6 2.0 tdi 140 in December 2012 with 78k miles on the clock from a car supermarket (ex lease car). Now done 111k, so 33k in nearly 2 years ownership. Touch wood, only servicing and timely items were done like cam belt and water pump, regular annual servicing. Just replaced all 4 ty...

I would only buy new shocks but would consider 2nd hand H&R springs or Eibachs though

Hi Wookie, Thanks for the reply. I may give these a try as they are German made after all and should be good for the next 2 year's of ownership that I plan to keep the car for. Just after a slight drop of up to -30-40mm from the springs and decent new shocks as the rears are leaking and need replace...

I started a thread re 'recommendations on replacements for my B6 Saloon' and posted this, but nobody has yet responded on this set from FK Hightec - Anyone bought from this company and if so what reviews can anybody give on this type of set - Seems a very good price? Why are these so cheap? A full s...

Very Smart Ssat dude!

Originally upon purchase the old Nokia Bluetooth box under the drivers seat that could only connect to 80's and 90's phones! For a car produced in 2008, this is a bit backward. Sorted after purchasing an upgrade version.
Otherwise enjoying everything else

Would like the alloys for my B6!
Joking apart - looks pretty good! Reminds me of the old Austin pedal cars that my old man had worked onto restore

Why are these so cheap? A full set of FK's lowering springs & shocks for just over £169?
Are these good, bad or indifferent

Hi, something like th eBilstein B4's as mentioned in one previous post.
Unless I can just replace the springs to Eibach and buy standard VW shocks?
