Post: RE: Autobiography EVOQUE

  Thread: Labour fee for changing wheels?
Post: RE: Labour fee for changing wheels?

  Thread: Labour fee for changing wheels?
Post: RE: Labour fee for changing wheels?

Are you transferring the tyres to your new set of wheels? Generally tyre shops charge $5 to strip and $20 to fit a tyre to a wheel. There should be no cost if they are swapping a set of whee...

I'm sure they'll come up with the goods when it comes to cosmetic mods, nothing beats factory OE quality. Plus the Evoque designers seem to know exactly what they're doing with the styling. However th...

Post: Evoque to debut world’s first 9-speed auto

I think the new 9 speed auto will be a real game changer. The SD4 Auto has been my pick so far and whilst I've always thought the Evoque was a very well rounded package, its only weakness has been th...

Post: RE: Milltek - TD4/SD4 Exhaust Systems

Nice find. I'd love to hear some sound clips. They should have dyno'd a tuned Evoque and then added the exhaust to compare, rather than add the exhaust and tune at the same time. This way we can see...

Post: RE: Who is gonna re-map their evoque then?

Is there anymore info on this 're-map'? Is it a piggyback or is it uploaded through the OBII? Do we install it ourselves and do we have the ability to switch back to stock? What features etc?
