List updated in post number 2,
Only thing outstanding that needs attention now are the tyres. Then perhaps the dead HVAC recirculation flap under the bonnet, and seized intake flaps.

Thanks M-A8
Now to add some more problems to my list. Leaking screenwash, it comes out as fast as I add it. Leaking from area behind front wheel, so the tank area itself. Most likely a dodgy pipe connection (I hope), but access looks to be a pain. Drivetrain noise, cause not yet identified. Whining noise at 70mph, and an audible judder just as the car comes to a stop. The judder does not happen everytime, nor is it felt through the brake pedal or steering. so currently not sure of cause either but they maybe linked together.

Time for another update
Had the wheel alignment checked on the D3 last weekend and it was perfect and spot on, no adjustment requirement. At last something on the car that does not require fixing because it was correct. My door touch sensors decided to start working properly for no apparent reason, they have never worked properly since I got the car until last week. Scanned the car for faults with VCDS and this has revealed that the Alarm siren I purchased from A8 parts in january has died and suffered the same fault as the one I replaced it with. 1 Fault Found: 01134 - Alarm Horn (H12) 012 - Electrical Fault in Circuit Freeze Frame: Fault Status: 01101100 Fault Priority: 3 Fault Frequency: 97 Reset counter: 99 Mileage: 211229 km Time Indication: 0 Date: 2014.03.31 Time: 08:51:09 The scan also revealed a single occurrence of a fault on the air suspension, I'll have to keep an eye on this one to see if it comes back. I have no idea when it happened as the mileage indicated as 0km. 1 Fault Found: 01399 - Relay for Level-Control Compressor (J403) 009 - Open or Short to Ground - Intermittent Freeze Frame: Fault Status: 00101001 Fault Priority: 2 Fault Frequency: 1 Reset counter: 105 Mileage: 0 km Time Indication: 0 Both these are in addition to the pre existing ones relating to the footwell heaters, the component protection fault on the DSP and the fault with the HVAC recirculation motor. None of these are effecting the way the car behaves so are low on the priority list. Lastly, I have replaced the wiper linkage with a secondhand one from ebay as the original one had developed a lot of play in the passenger arm spindle leading to a juddering on the passenger blade.
