Hello to all, since this is the section where it says Discussion Forum relating to the Audi 80, 90, 100, 200, 4000, 5000 and all other Audi models, i figured i would post the build thread of my daily Audi A1 in here, since there is no other specific section for it. So I will start from the beginning from when I have owned it. From what I understand this car was never sold in the US, however I could be wrong.

Cheers

It is an Audi, once again. an A1 Sportback, 1,6 TDi.

Optional extras were:

-bi-xenon
-led tailights
-black interior headliner
-fog lights
-leather 3-spoke steering wheel
-leather handbrake and gear boot
-steering wheel controllers for audi multimedia
-Audi multimedia system [navi, bluetooth, etc etc]
-electronic clima system
-armrest
-parktronic system
-7,5x17 wheels

Not bad listing for a daily I think.

So here it is when I collected it two days ago.

Hello diesel power, first time in my garage

First thing I did after getting to know the car, which gives the feeling of a much bigger Audi to be honest, in terms of quality, I did this

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/521C707B-21FE-42ED-976E-B6CC5784993C_zpsbvjrntl1.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/521C707B-21FE-42ED-976E-B6CC5784993C_zpsbvjrntl1.jpg.html)

No giving heads up for dealerships from me

Much better

Will propably also debadge the rear for a cleaner look

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/4C845448-E94D-47D1-A517-7FCEE57B8261_zpsyjj8jqw2.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/4C845448-E94D-47D1-A517-7FCEE57B8261_zpsyjj8jqw2.jpg.html)

Dont know if you noticed, but car is equipped with some stripes from factory. At first I was like, I will remove them, but they are rather discreet to be honest, matte ones, and will see.

Well, second day of ownership, and it has begun.

It is an illness I guess, that does not go away.

So, one thing I did not particularly like in the interior of the car, was this part

I think it is practical, but not good looking for an Audi.

In the other, A3 diesel we have in the family, I had spotted a much better looking ashtray, which my father refused to trade for mine, LoL, so I ordered mine with no second thought.

Collected it from the dealership today

Watch the differences though (dont mind bottles and sexual implication lol)

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/535F7F99-1201-4CFF-A9E4-0C4D0AA99335_zpsai8pxbrk.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/535F7F99-1201-4CFF-A9E4-0C4D0AA99335_zpsai8pxbrk.jpg.html)

Hadnt noticed they have difference size body to be honest

So it didnt fit

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/9609CE13-9D36-4044-8D4B-3034E255D77E_zpsvm7dfwji.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/9609CE13-9D36-4044-8D4B-3034E255D77E_zpsvm7dfwji.jpg.html)

However I did notice something

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/E6D8C962-CF95-4AC6-9CD5-C2CC7326E713_zpswesgany0.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/E6D8C962-CF95-4AC6-9CD5-C2CC7326E713_zpswesgany0.jpg.html)

Necks were removable, so, changed them and voila

Now it is perfect

Then, coming back home, I knew I had to do some work on the trunk. I was always a fan of clean looking asses and all, so debadge time.
I strongly suggest you debadge your cars when they are fresh and new if you are to do it anyway, glue is so much more friendly and kinda comes off with the letters easily.

So.

Daytime pics will follow to show how nice it came out.

What is more, these were ordered, and arrived in my hands as well

But more on that later.

I have also started my question here and there, for the answer to my lowering questions - yes I know it is the second week since I bought this car, but you know how it is. LoL.

Seems like i was a template from inside the box.
Not sure if it supplied with it though.
Thing is there is something weird about the footrest area.
We will get to that later.

It would be a bolt on, if it were like on my other cars, but here the plastic part to be replaced is missing, and the carpet in the area is like this

Not sure how I am gonna do it, but I will figure out how I guess sooner or later.

Took some time to put these on, especially the throttle one, where the clutch one needed to open some holes

Not sure if I have written it in here. But one thing that has bothered me since day one, that i got the car, even from the dealership, is the red colour of the vents in the interior. I guess I am more of a subtle guy, and that much red really hurt my eyes to be honest. Seemed kinda cheap for my tastes.

So. I had to do something about that as you can tell.
I was thinking either piano black vents, or chrome/alu ones.
Decided to go for the piano black ones.

Only tools I used are my hands to be honest.
Despite the ELSA, and some youtube tutorials saying I need some special tools.

So, I dont recall if I had told you about it, but I kinda ordered a new front grill for my AUD1ESEL project. An aftermarket "RS1" grill in gloss black from Germany, which arrived some days before.

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/46FF272A-BA22-4343-BB02-801FD06D65C8_zpsgsmaedx3.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/46FF272A-BA22-4343-BB02-801FD06D65C8_zpsgsmaedx3.jpg.html)

Definitely not cheap, but quality was super good to be honest.

Lost no time, and decided to go for it on my own, after work

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/755E5D77-09D0-4E8C-B869-D4FCA8177A83_zpsnunbrwn9.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/755E5D77-09D0-4E8C-B869-D4FCA8177A83_zpsnunbrwn9.jpg.html)

Bumper came off, dont mind the headlight, i thought it needed to be removed, whereas it didnt. Although there is a DIY online, I wanted to go for it on my own, weird right

Thought the Oem crashbar would look ugly in silver behind the grille, so I removed it. Dont worry just to paint it.

Installed everything back on - minus the Audi rings which were smaller in the A1 and did not fit

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/C419F09E-5E9C-4126-A024-C3859296948A_zpsnuyypnt7.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/C419F09E-5E9C-4126-A024-C3859296948A_zpsnuyypnt7.jpg.html)

I then got a new Audi badge from dealership, which is slightly bigger, and comes from the A6-A7-A8-RS6-RS7 etc.

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/BAC707CE-ECE6-46CC-9D6B-545621663743_zpsrj2nozic.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/BAC707CE-ECE6-46CC-9D6B-545621663743_zpsrj2nozic.jpg.html)

It was then ready

The grille also had the mounting thing for the license plate - but look at it

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/47332548-87D9-49FC-9092-C04CD2C30B9D_zps7vog99pw.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/47332548-87D9-49FC-9092-C04CD2C30B9D_zps7vog99pw.jpg.html)

So I thought I'd make a vinyl plate, to go right here

And then saw old photos of my other Audi, and though hmmm nice wheels

So I thought let's make a fitment test

Now as for the test-fitment.
These wheels are 9,5x18 ET38 . I could not bolt them down to put car to the ground due to 5x112 vs 5x100 different bolt pattern.
Thing is, that in order to have the concave I need to go for the same sizes again.

BUT, the wheel, on the inner side, does not clear the shock absorber, nor the caliper.
So I guess if I am to go for it, I might have to go with a 5mm spacer in order to make it work.
And then, surely go for a fender roller in order to pull fenders properly. I dont mind the car being new, I want it to make happen, and I believe I can :)

Any feedback, welcome as always

Cheers

Mike

So today I had a day off, from work, and thought, why not.
Why not upgrade my exhaust system I mean. LoL.

Put the car on the ramp

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/DSC_0475_zps8lgwixty.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/DSC_0475_zps8lgwixty.jpg.html)

So the OEM A1 1.6 TDi system, has no middle resonator as you can see.
At first I was to change only the backbox, but then, I thought, F*ck it, I will go cat-back exhaust. OEM piping size is about 50mm (about 2inch).

I thought we should go 63mm (2,5inch) but then I said again, F*ck it, let's go 76mm (3inch), cause who knows what engine this chassis might end up carrying in the future, LoL.

So then, that was decided, transition from OEM one to the new one, under the driver's seat, and then, in the future, do the front section as well.
While we cut the piping there, I thought, let's do a sound test just for fun.
And then, was the time I lost my smile, LoL.

I mean, seriously, ZERO DIFFERENCE, whatsoever, from oem condition.
Yeah, no sound gains if you dont remove the front section I guess. I mean I am new to TDi world, but seriously, WTF ?

Nevermind I thought, I would continue with the fabrication of the exhaust, make it proper, and look nice, and in the future, exhaust will be completed sometime I guess.

First we had to make the transition from one to another

I would also use one v-band connection to remove the backbox when and if needed for cleaning etc etc

Then this

two sets of 5mm spacers to make room for calipers, and the shock absorber. Or so I thought.

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/C078D2A2-90E5-41B9-9FF2-09ABC8D7271E_zpsrulng4ws.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/C078D2A2-90E5-41B9-9FF2-09ABC8D7271E_zpsrulng4ws.jpg.html)

Used some P zero's 225.40.18 from my Golf

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/4A7A2FEE-E059-4AEC-9ED8-62DE3C90DD9F_zpsunxtxab8.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/4A7A2FEE-E059-4AEC-9ED8-62DE3C90DD9F_zpsunxtxab8.jpg.html)

Then, it was time to test fit the wheels onto the car

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/B56FB2B3-DE10-4C12-85B0-0F799ABB0552_zpswaxytx07.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/B56FB2B3-DE10-4C12-85B0-0F799ABB0552_zpswaxytx07.jpg.html)

First I used one 5mm spacer, no bueno. Thought of combining two spacers, still, no bueno. The clearance we wanted, came in three of them in a row, thus meaning I needed a 15mm spacer. The wheel was already very wide to begin with, and I already knew fenders would have to be pulled.

Made some custom spacers then

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/67D6C324-825A-4043-84BD-935F161C2BE0_zpsjlddndyw.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/67D6C324-825A-4043-84BD-935F161C2BE0_zpsjlddndyw.jpg.html)

Amazing quality and fitment

It was very tight

At the back it was much better

Then fenders were pulled, no cracks on the car colour with the fender roller, and things got much better. Here is how it looked afterwards

Went out for a proper ride, but rubbing was huge on the front on the arches, so I knew 225.40.18 would not work

So, sadly I knew what I had to do. Order some 215.35.18 rubber, and go from there. So I did, and lowered the car some more.

215 on a 9,5

Then you insert the OSIR product

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/D075D2B6-47F6-4C41-A416-D2F71C8C336F_zpsp93osoue.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/D075D2B6-47F6-4C41-A416-D2F71C8C336F_zpsp93osoue.jpg.html)

And you also need to hack the tripod inside it. Waiting for a Defi gauge to go in there.

Oh wait I have ordered it too, LoL

Put everything back together, and it came out like this

I loved it but there was a problem

Can you see it?

Look closer

That DRL led strip line should not be white, it spoils the fun

Took some while to figure it out, zero DIY threads on this, so i figured it out on my own, last night

http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/tetartoslogariasmos/AUD1ESEL/2EF455A7-6A54-4A35-9C9F-3604BB72F941_zpslakr0teq.jpg (http://s912.photobucket.com/user/tetartoslogariasmos/media/AUD1ESEL/2EF455A7-6A54-4A35-9C9F-3604BB72F941_zpslakr0teq.jpg.html)

Now everything matches and I am very happy.

What is more, my winter tires came and I am happy they came just in time
