Re: avant roof spoiler
Quite tricky to remove but can be done. Double sided tape on the leading edge against the roof and in the centre of the spoiler and 2 10mm bolts on the inside of the tailgate. You have to remove the interior window trim to get to them. The tape is quite strong and I found the best way to get it was ...

Re: Wing Corrosion, Anyone Had It Fixed Under Warranty?
I had both front wings replaced on mine back in 2014. No contribution needed but I did agree to have it serviced at the dealer that did the work (Tyneside Audi). Paint match was good (Avus Silver) and the fit was ok once I'd pointed out a bit misalignment. Even got them to paint the door mirrors whi...

Re: Stolen - B8 in West Yorkshire - M9 LGE
It cost me around £9 to make my OBD secure. Bought a 12 pin male and female connector and chopped the OBD harness about 15cm from the port and added the connector so the OBD is now removeable. If you're competent with a soldering iron then it's an easy solution and doesn't throw up any faults on VCD...

SOLD Audi S4 B8 Saloon,Manual, 46k miles, SOLD
Hi all, I've decided to sell my car as we've just moved house and want to do some building work so unfortunately the car has to go to help fund it. It's a 2011 '61 reg' saloon with just under 46k miles. Audi service history and just had oil and inspection service on 07 June 16. 6 speed manual gearbo...

Re: B8 S4's buying advice
I'm not sure if they have drive select then they automatically have the sports diff too, someone who has a one with it will probably be able to tell you better. It may be listed as an option on the sticker in the boot but I don't know what the option code would be. Mine is a manual box so no problem...

Re: B8 S4's buying advice
Hi mate, You won't regret visitng MRC for the stage 2 upgrade when you get one, I have one that's been done and it's amazing. It's been done since 2013 with 44k miles and still on the standard clutch I think with no problems at all and nothing else I can see as a problem to look out for. Mine doesn'...

Re: anyone know this car?? colour change to glut orange?
It also has a large rip in the carpet just behind the rear of the centre console so doesn't look like it was dismantled with care.
Good luck if you decide to go for it and I'll keep an eye out for your 'breaking RS4' advert haha.

Re: anyone know this car?? colour change to glut orange?
It looks like it has been stripped back to the shell to get painted as all the bulkhead/engine bay has been done too, so it's had quite a rebuild and who knows if it's been put back together properly. I'd rather buy something where you can see the damage before repairs. After selling my B7 I couldn'...

Re: anyone know this car?? colour change to glut orange?
That car has been through the same auction about 4 times now and it never goes for a low price considering it's possibly got loads of faults. It's a definite pay your money /take a chance car.

ATS Racelight 20" alloys + tyres S4 B8 fitment *reduced*
As the title says really. They are flowformed alloy so only 9kg per rim and also very strong and being ATS are top quality wheels. These were fitted to my S4 and were originally black. I decided to fit some S5 19's and so tried previously selling them in their scuffed condition. After not a lot of i...

Re: Joined the B8 ranks
From what I've read up on, they use a blank key in the dash then plug in a hand held tool via the obd and reprogramme the new key to the car.
As far as how it looks now, there's nothing to see anymore.
I'll post some pics once I've tidied it all up.

Re: Joined the B8 ranks
Removed it completely with the use of an in line connector so if I ever need to use the OBD I just plug it back in. Very simple but very effective.

Re: Joined the B8 ranks
Cheers for the welcome. Yes, they are theiving t***s and there seems to be more and more of it happening, and all using the same method. It's so far cost me £4 to modify the OBD plug so it can't be done to this car again. Looking forward to getting it on the road and see how a stage 2 S4 compares wi...
