Back in November I picked up some carbon canister hoses, given there are no instructions where they all go I have been searching the internet for pictures etc. This morning replaced three of the hoses although not completely sure about the one going to the coolant bottle but from what I have found this appears to be one of them.
The others which I think connect to the rigid pipe going to the throttle body I'll attempt another day!!! :) :)

Installed a couple more of the carbon canister hoses today and finally managed to do a successful throttle body adaptation using vcds following the battery change that I did a few days ago.

Just a small thing, I had noticed this missing some time ago and eventually got round to ordering it from Audi and picked it up today, a bit fiddly to put in place but one more small job ticked off the list of things to do!!!!

Been meaning to do this for a while but with the weather not being so good it's taken longer than I thought, however today I removed the throttle body and gave it a clean. Wasn't as dirty as I had expected but worth doing none the less.
Once back together did the throttle body adaptation using vcds.

Well I spent some of the weekend tidying the garage to make some space to store my current wheels and winter tyres but today was spent removing wheels and spacers and fitting my new spacers and wheels.
I did discover while doing this that the haldex bonding lead is missing with just the remnants remaining on the two attachment points, so another job to add to the list!!!
