Re: BOV or Diverter valve any suggestions?

The turbos were surging badly when I got the car, it did take off like a bat out of hell though. Downsides were, revs kept going up when you were cha...

Re: Anti-Dazzle Mirror Glass

Mine are blue.

I'm sure they are somehow auto dimming, connected to the interior auto dimming rear view mirror. Maybe I'm wrong.

So, what kind are mine then?

Re: RS4 B7 Front Brakes For Sale

Brakes are now sold.

P G finally got your rear calipers fitted. Couldn't wait any longer for you to get back to me about your rear discs. LOL.

Was selling these to fund clutch replacement.

My last two cars have both been over 400 miles from home.
The train journey, final deal and drive back. Now that's a good day out.

RE: Cooling Fan

There a few different coolant temp sensors. Which one did you have changed? There will probably be some sort of thermal switch for the fan.

Does Unit 20 have one of the bearing/hub, puller/presser thingys that allows you to renew the wheel bearing without removing any suspension?

Heated mirrors

Our cars have heated door mirrors, locks and window washer jets.
The mirrors and washer jets come on with the ignition when its cold.

What temperature is "cold"?

When do the heated door locks work?

Can the heated door mirrors be programmed to come on with the rear demist?

Black badge

We looked at RS4 black badge and weren't sure, so decided against it.
Is it the same size as the front one?

Enough carbon. Yes. Less is more.

I've just changed my black wheels for anthracite ones. Looks much better.
Would go with the carbon roof really well.
Carboning up your mirrors would make it look cheap.
