No mate, it isn't VAG approved, I don't think any of those mentioned Ester synthetics are.

Anything Ester synthetic is good, Oilman will be best placed to advise but from what Tim told me; Millers CFS, Millers CFS NT, Fuchs Pro S, Motul Sport, Motul 300V, Gulf Competition etc. I think the issue is the 5W30 is really a bit thin, and oil engines run quite hot at ~110-115C and the oil vapori...

I just renewed my B8 S4 insurance, Stage 2, RS5 Brakes, Milltek etc all declared, best quote was £445 from Jamie @ APlan. In the end I went with HIC though for not a lot more. That's with all mods declared, fully comp, a few previous fast cars (Stage 3 B5 S4, a Subaru etc), 9Yrs NCB, IAM Pass, and 3...

Cheers

My S4 has had the RS6+ Caliper & Disk conversion done in the past.

I need some replacement pads (ideally Ferodo DS2500). Does anyone know which pads I'm looking for (Audi model/chassis/year would be great!). Are they the same as the B7 RS4 pads?

Cheers

Phil

Phone Gary Moulson at Keith Michaels (0845 013 8231), tell him you have an S4 and list the mods (ie, K4s, intercoolers, remap, diverter valves etc) and he'll give you a very very good quote
