Thanks everyone. I actually ended up buying an aftermarket cat from Catman (google him) for £240. Garage fitted it for £120. Picked it up today and it sounds and runs absolutely fine. But if the EML light comes on I’ll look at other options.
I’ll report back in a few weeks to let everyone know how it’s going but at the moment it looks like a cheap fix.
Which is handy because David at DS Autowerks was advised by Audi they have discontinued the part so you couldn’t get a new one anymore even if you wanted to spend the money!
