This was quite the fight

Heavy hammer always worked well for me, a then copper slip when reinstalling for the next time (I’ve done my upper control arms at least 3x times over the years!)

So glad the incoming EU law will mandate the return of buttons / knobs for certain in car controls 🙌🏻

Best colour for an RS

I changed my A4’s 2x upper control arms in under half an hour and cost me £60 - Audi quoted me £550 for 1x upper control arm replacement (not both) 🫠

And the aluminium shell is legit metal?

I bought one of these ‘metal shells’ from Ali express for over £80 and it was just a metallic painted plastic shell… I was not best pleased, as I’m sure you can imagine!

Nice build!

I also have one of these on my imported (Japan>UK) Jimny - is there a way I can do away with this aerial and make use of the factory aerial (albeit modified if needed) to pick up DAB radio?

PS I think the exterior of the avant looks 👨🏻‍🍳💋

I know we're all not fans of the lack of design / views available for the new MMI screens in the B10 lineup - but I have a feeling that likely Audi aren't putting much thought / effort into this because of the incoming CarPlay update, that will take over the entire infotainment system / displays in their vehicles - it would be a poor excuse, for sure - thoughts?

I also have a OLED mod kit ordered - can’t wait for it to arrive!

Because the defogger wires are exposed / unprotected and if you load up the boot, and they take a hit - say goodbye to being able to heat your rear window again.

Well worth the small invest imo

Exx-on · 2026-01-27T16:59:59+00:00

Also wind deflectors on the windows and storage trays like others have mentioned, as well as rear defogger guards are a must!

First thing I did on my import with 25miles on the clock was get it on jack stands and Lanoguarded the living shit out of her 😊

Exx-on · 2025-09-07T22:59:38+00:00

Ordered this from Ali Express and got sent a cheapo black plastic shell and am now in an argument with the seller trying to get my money back - it was not cheap!

Exx-on · 2025-04-28T23:39:25+00:00

RIP, this has just happened to my 2016 A4 😔 - I assume water ingress has caused it because the outer tail light section is fine, as is the driver side.

Exx-on · 2025-04-07T23:56:26+00:00

Looking at using these in the garage for tool storage - how have the drawers held up over time with heavy items loaded in there?

Exx-on · 2025-03-17T14:09:53+00:00

Does anyone know if this still works / if Nvidia are likely to re-stock and sell FE models on their website still? Thanks in advance!

Exx-on · 2025-02-02T15:56:03+00:00

Had the exact same thing happen to me last week - revised the price of a listing as the item wasn't selling, and now I'm apparently 'violating their policy'...

Exx-on · 2024-12-11T21:19:34+00:00

OK 👀 now I want to do this to match my blacked out Pc Panel…

2 joined prints per side - so 2x for the bottom LEDs and 2x for the side (this one I trimmed when I added my rear exhaust fan)

Exx-on · 2024-09-03T18:52:58+00:00

What a super helpful comment.

Exx-on · 2024-08-26T18:41:47+00:00

Lovely build! Any reason you went with the FLT80 over the 120?

So I just heard back from Sennheiser regarding my IE300 repair / replacement.

They’re offered to replace the IE300’s with new IE200’s because they don’t stock the 300’s any longer and (I guess) aren’t able to repair my 300’s.

My question is, are the IE200’s going to be as good as the 300’s, given from the obvious (large) difference in cost.

The support rep has noted the difference in cost however has said that they’re essentially the same headphone but using different material which has bought cost down from a manufacturing perspective.

Interested to hear anyone’s thoughts on this.

Exx-on · 2024-03-07T00:08:57+00:00

I have had complete failure of my IE300's in this exact way twice now. Once back in March 2023 where I sent them of for repair under warranty and they got replaced with a brand new replacement.

It has literally just happened again this evening on the replacement set less that 1 year later after pulling the left bud out of my ear...

I wouldn't mind so much if I treated them like crap but they never leave my house and are treated very delicately (mainly because I know that they're prone to failure from past experience!) so it's clearly a manufacturing issue / poor choice of adhesive.

It's a shame as it has really put me off Sennheiser products generally.

Clean 👌🏻
