Re: Gearbox lurching/knocking in 1st gear
After all this - house broken into and keys stolen. Car was pushed off the drive and rolled down the road by 3 guys. If anyone see a seprang blue RS4 with RS04 numberplate in the Woodford/Essex area it’s probably mine. Bastards

Re: Gearbox lurching/knocking in 1st gear
Got the car back and it’s silky smooth with the gear change, realised it’s probably always had a slight issue in two years of ownership so amazing to use now. One problem - my wife put the front of the car into another, causing cracked grill but also the bonnet has popped up and now not aligned prop...

Re: Gearbox lurching/knocking in 1st gear
Basically the dealer had a courtesy diesel a3 and once they saw there was an issue and needed more than a day they contacted vw car service or something like that who were excellent. Rang me up and said as an RS owner you can have whatever you want difficulty is finding stock, but they have various ...

Re: Gearbox lurching/knocking in 1st gear
Okay update on this. Finally got the car looked at and new gearbox needed, parts on back order from Germany so still have to wait a couple of weeks for them to arrive. Audi have approved the works under the warranty though so very glad I have that in place as otherwise would have been very expansive...

Re: Gearbox lurching/knocking in 1st gear
Thanks very much for that - sounds very similar and some useful info. Car is on 49k. Just had an oil service at Audi as well so at least they can’t say any issues with that (unless that has been a contributing factor). Will ring them and see what they say. Will be the usual fee for the inspection no...

Gearbox lurching/knocking in 1st gear
Very recently my car has started doing some odd things with the revs and in particular when moving to or from standstill: - when moving off there appears to be a slight delay with a knock and then lurch forward in first gear. Its not horredous but you can feel a slight hesitation under foot. - the r...

Re: Bluetooth Phoning with Data Sim Installed
As it was a 2013 car unfortunately it’s just how it is. Tbh I actually rarely use the SIM card and just put it in for longer journeys for traffic updates etc, so it’s less of an issue.

Re: Access without the keys
Nope. In the glovebox (I’m learning by error here), but at least I can drive it as apparently the police have ways to get in without damaging it.

Re: Access without the keys
She was parking and just opened the door to check how close to the kerb as I am militant about how much she kerbs the alloys! Just spoke to Audi and looks like I need to get the car to them to reprogram the keys. Let’s hooe the spares are in the car and then at least I have one set and they can repr...

Re: Access without the keys
They have one set, other set in the car! So need to get access and change all the keys. I thought it may take some time, whole thing is ridiculous and infuriating

Re: Access without the keys
Thanks very much - luckily all okay and don’t get me started on the spare key!!
East London it happened - last year they tried to burgle me when I had an m3, now it’s a car jacking. I think lesson learnt about having a nice car around here.

Access without the keys
Had a pretty nasty situation last night. My wife was car jacked at knife point with my son in the car. All okay thankfully. It being my wife, the spare keys were in her bag as well at the time and were in the car. The car didn’t get far but they locked it and ran off with the keys. The car is now in...

Re: Bluetooth Phoning with Data Sim Installed
Ah that could explain it - it's March 2013. Take it you can't update the software as sounds more hardware needed as well?

Bluetooth Phoning with Data Sim Installed
Hello Just got my RS4. Absolutely love it. Coming from an E92 M3, its quite a change. A lot more refined in terms of cruising around, and love the exhaust note with the sports exhaust. I'm not at all familiar with the MMI system - I have inserted a data sim and have my phone paired over bluetooth, b...
