aftermarket

Hi,

I have a 1.6 TDI Greenline 2012 Skoda Superb with 70k km up. An injector recently had to be replaced. I don't know why, possibly because the car is unused for a few months each year. Is there any benefit in using a fuel additive to prevent further damage and, if so, which?

I also have a 2.0-litre petrol turbocharged Mercedes-Benz C-Class (245hp) of much more recent vintage. Is there a benefit of using a fuel additive from early in a car's life? Is there any evidence that these products. work?

Many thanks,

Philip

Hi, I bought an Audi six months ago from a non-Audi dealership  and I brought the car to an Audi dealer to find out about service cost and I was told that the alloys on my car were not the real Audi wheels and that would knock about five thousand euro off the trade in price if I want to in the future. I phoned the dealer I bought the car from and he told me that it is just a ploy by Audi to lower my trade-in price.

Could you please let me know what I can do as I paid a lot of money for that car?

Thanks

I am waiting delivery of a new Opel Mokka X and wish to purchase a rubber fitted boot protector in advance. Most or all of those advertised on Amazon describe them as "2012 onwards". They seem to relate to the model prior to the X model. Are the measurements and shape of the X identical to the previous model?

Which size of tyre shall be replaced for 175/65 R14 if I go for 16-inch alloys?

Can you please advise on getting a remap? I own an 2009 Audi A6 TDIe 136hp with low mileage and in great condition. However, I used to own a diesel Octavia RS and miss the power in the bigger, heavier Audi, but do not want to buy a new car. I am considering getting a remap. What do you think of this? Is it worth it?

We have a MINI Convertible and the roof has stopped working. Does anyone in Ireland specialise in repairing convertible roofs? The main dealers are looking for €5,000!

Will 16-inch alloys from a 2008 Volkswagen Passat fit onto an 08 Golf?

Can I get a satnav and heated seats retrofitted to my 2011 BMW 520d?

Where in Ireland can I buy car badges? I'm looking for a leaping Jaguar badge for my car. Any ideas?

When will Volkswagen Ireland launch Apple Car Play on Composition Media stereo across its range? I have a Mk7 Golf with the second version of Composition Media and it says I need an activation code. I asked Volkswagen Ireland for a part number and the price is €250 including VAT, but it can't be ordered as it's not available in Ireland yet.

Is there any other way to find out a launch date for this feature?
