With labor here at local shops running £100 per hour and Audi £160 per hour, i do all the maintenance my self

Think i'm gonna try changing the thermostat first and see how she responds.
Just finished a total overhaul of brakes,calipers, rear dif, control arms, gearbox filter & oil, inner/outer tie-rod, and so much more back in August so was hoping for a long break now
