Spoke to a local armed policeman I know through a mate. 6 lifted in the midlands in the last 2 months. Not going to post anything else he said for obvious reasons.

This is more or less on my door step, I heard or read on another forum about someone having their RS4 lifted in Warwick before xmas too.

I know a local armed policeman, I might bend his ear on the quiet and see what he knows.

Slight whistle in 4th at low-ish revs

Got a slight whistle in 4th gear at relatively low revs, 1-3k. It's not apparent in any other gear. Anyone got ay experience with this? It's been there since I've had the car but I've only just noticed it (a good indication as to how quiet it is, it's hard to spot with the radio for example)

It could be a syncro issue. the early B6 S4's suffered from this apparently and it was a fix that should/could have been done under warranty. I don't know much about it but if you speak to Audi they will be able to tell you the full history of the work undertaken by them including all warranty work.

He's spent a fortune on that, could have bought a good car to start with. :) I know I thought that, respect to him for going the whole hog on mods and for having a very quick car but he could have probably bought a cheap Ferrari F360 for that money! Sorry for the thread hijack :roll: He said furthe...

It looks like the site I think I bought it from is down at the moment. I'll try to remember to have a look through my emails tonight, and see if I can get an email address for them, I'll PM you if I find it. EDIT: Had a quick google, and found this site that sells the cables, although at £80 it's m...

Wow I check my oil at lunchtime today and it needed about two thirds of a litre! I know I had a leaking rocker cover gasket that's been replaced but I guess I can add oil to the list of the fluids the S4 drinks. It's worth it though, even though I was seen off by this at lunch time: http://www.stre...

Had a right result today; I spoke to the guy who owned my S4 before me for about an hour and a quarter and now I am confident I have an absolute belter of a motor. Rather than having been ragged, it has been poured over with glowing affection. It has won a couple of concours events (two at Audi Driv...
