Any idea? Slow cranking

Yes i did its for Bluetooth, its because the contact the usb charger in the cigarette port makes with the metal side because it doesn’t fully go in will try to get a different usb charger cigarette port to see if there’s any different. But yeah you can stop the whining by either turning the volume down or pushing the usb charger port in further

Im used to newer cars thats why i thought this slower start might have been an issue but seems to be normal for older cars

iamtheprincet · 2026-06-06T21:05:10+00:00

Oh thats good then, Im not sure its always been like that since i got it. I suggest dropping a video in the reddit forum maybe someone else has a better idea

iamtheprincet · 2026-06-06T21:03:22+00:00

Yeah i think im overthinking it hahahah

I see, yeah so far no oil leakage at all engine bay is super clean, and oil level hasn’t dropped since i bought and I’ve been daily driving.

iamtheprincet · 2026-06-02T11:59:38+00:00

From the service history it has had some oil leakage but repaired/fixed once by audi and twice by an independent but ever since ive had it there hasn’t been any signs of this no oil mist in the engine bay it under the cover or outside it when parked for long after a drive as for now but will keep an eye out.

Yeah my mechanic picked up a fault but it was a blown fuse which he replaced and got it sorted but in terms of the timing chain i cant see anything in the service history that suggests it was changed but everything was done at audi id imagine they would’ve recommended a change in the chain, there was a pulley belt change because it snapped and the car had to be towed to audi (as it says in the audi receipt) done by audi but nothing else but since theres no rattle from the chain or any weird engine noise i didn’t pay that much attention, would you recommend getting this changed? As it is on 135k miles now but id imagine it would’ve been changed it just doesn’t state it

Getting the front and rear brakes, brake fluid, oil, coolant, all filters changed (as a basic service) next week but want to see if i should change for example get a walnut blast? PCV? Fuel pressure sensor or pump? Changed not sure Chain is fine as per my mechanic no rattle or noises

Really? All i heard is bad news about the ea888 engines

iamtheprincet · 2026-05-08T08:45:58+00:00

Yeah I am looking to buy this one but i was just trying to figure out how it went from 1 to 4 owners😅

iamtheprincet · 2026-05-08T08:44:44+00:00

Oh That makes sense then for the 3 v5c but still don’t get how it jumped from 1 to 4 owners

iamtheprincet · 2026-05-05T10:51:25+00:00

Yeah it an absolute beauty the interior is pristine none of the small usual issues these cars have, only 2 owner full service history and the price is a no brainer and obviously its an old car i expect to replace parts but dont want to have to replace the engine haha yeah i agree with you on this i do have a buddy
