It appears to vary. My car has 40,000 miles on it now and I’ve done 12,000 of those. You can drive it hard, and check the oil, its up to the mark; drive it steady its up to the mark and then check it again to find it needs a top-up. Six weeks pass and it doesn’t need any more, and then in the sp...

Sorry to hear of your problems, Gary; sounds very frustrating. I couldn’t have put up with it for two years and the numerous, fruitless, visits, to the same dealer, without at least seeking out an alternative dealer for a second opinion. My own car has had a few teething problems, and I’ve been ...

If you were to contact Audi and ask their opinion on when to change your oil, the first question they would ask you, is what is the mileage on your car. They will advise, accordingly - regardless of how and when you drive your vehicle. Long life oils as per the Audi spec for this car, are very robus...

The jerkiness you mention was particularly annoying and manifested itself in transmission shunt, particularly while attempting to drive the car using slight throttle openings – I found I was having to dip the clu...

It describes the work carried out to fix my starting problem. The report states, load circuit main relay (J271) at fault. Part No. is shown as...

In the few short months I've been visiting here, I've noticed this forum has its fair share of dips sticks, but its no different to any other forum, or life for that matter: clearly ownership of an RS4 is not exclusive of...
