Laborious job of fitting centre caps to my new Audi 18’s
Tried finding some caps on eBlag, and nothing fitted properly ended up just getting some domed stickers and using the OEM Audi caps, after taking of the Audi rings. Lovely ride on these new wheels, but need to clearance the inner arches a tad as with 245’s I’m rubbing a bit. Not going to do much to her for a few weeks, as all focus is onto my old Beetle, then it’s new arches and possibly big brakes for the Caddy

Adjustable. Here in Germany it states that they need to be reduced in length otherwise they don’t pass TÜV inspection.
Im pretty sure that standards will rub anyway

Took van in to garage for vacuum actuator problem. Now being told I need a new turbo.
Do I
A. pay £850 for standard reconditioned turbo oil n filter swap n labour
Or
B. Do pay £400 for upgraded turbo. And labour to have dpf n erg removed and remap I think maybe £1000 total.
That's a good turbo, it did well.
I'd go with a refurbished/remanufactured replacement if you can find one, I don't see much point putting new turbo on a 200k mile ish engine.
Adding a hybrid at that kinda mileage will only cost you more in the long run. Most likely causing clutch/flywheel problems but maybe even engine problems.
