Re: FOR SALE: Black B7 RS4 Avant

Hey Daytona The drivers seat has been re-covered by Audi because some oiks damaged it trying to steal them. Fortunately, they were unsuccessful. It is lovely seeing them back to their factory glory. The passenger's seat was not damaged and is a little more aged, but that is changing over time as the...

Selling up: sad times

Hi all Sadly it's time to sell up.... I'm going to miss it when it goes. It's dead standard, never modified. Would love it to go to a good home, preferably a forum member. If you know of any good eggs in the market, please pop them in my direction.... http://forum.rs246.com/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=1096...

Re: Parking sensors??

Depends... They're two different tones (front and back) plus a third higher pitched for when they are goosed. Odd for them to go off with nothing around. Typically, try washing it (though I doubt it's that dirty if you haven't driven it yet), or failing that a screwdriver head round the inner ring. ...

Don't know the car, but those seats are knackered.

Re: New RS6 at Swindon Audi

There was one at Wimbledon Audi when mine was in for its service last week. Its diff had gone bang and was in to be fixed; I'd be properly ticked off if I'd spent £100k on a car and the diff was up in smoke with handfulls of miles on the clock. Poor sod was tootling about in a TDI as a result I thin...

Re: Attempted seat theft: SW London

An update on this matter from my point of view. The case against the accused in my case was dropped, despite some matching glass fragments in his clothing and the Stanley blade on his person. The CPS weren't confident of a successful case. The eyewitness lost line of sight before the police arrived,...

Re: Attempted seat theft: SW London

Update: the car is now with Audi and it's 'not the worst they've seen', the last one they saw had all the carpets and trim pulled out as the thieves looked for the tracker. I've 'just' got scratches on the door which look deep enough to need some correction, same on the driver's door card. Alarm uni...

Attempted seat theft: SW London

Hi guys I've never posted on the site before and it's awful to have to do so like this. Woke to police shouting at and arresting a guy outside the house at 4am. Knock at the door to tell me the guy had broken into the car (black b7 avant) and he was head first through the driver's window when neighb...
