Re: JamesBaby’s B7 RS4 Avant Daytona & Phantom

Well the car is sold. It's been a wonderful few years of amazing memories with the car. There will not be anything like it I'm sure.

When something good replaces it I'll be back on here with a new Blog no doubt. :)

Re: Sticking clutch pedal rs4 b7

That’s not the correct order of bleeding. You start with Front Left, then Front Right, then Rear Left, then Rear Right.

Re: Sticking clutch pedal rs4 b7

It's not the 5.1 spec you need. The regular DOT4 will be fine. What resolves the problem is a "Clutch Fluid Change". Most people don't know that the factory manual for a brake fluid change FIRST requires you to change the fluid in the Clutch Slave Cylinder THEN the brakes. Most workshops just bleed ...

Audi RS4 Avant B7 - JamesBaby's

I’m thinking of selling my pride & joy. Not in any rush as the car needs someone who is equally enthusiastic about the B7 RS4, to really appreciate it. This is an OCD owner car and I have an online blog on RS246.com detailing my journey with it under “JamesBaby’s RS4 B7 Daytona & Avant” RS4 B7 Avant...

Re: My RS4 Avant journey

Hi Mate. In my iPhone I can tell Siri to "Create a route to X location, using Google Maps" and it will open Google Maps with that location. So it should work with your Car Play unit.

Re: Full Clutch Kit Recommends

The standard LUK clutch kit is OEM spec and includes the release bearing and is what you want. I had mine done not long ago. Yes, use new bolts. I also did crank sensor and coolant temp sensor. There was no need to do crank seal. I got the flywheel from Rock Auto in the USA delivered all in for arou...

Re: JamesBaby’s B7 RS4 Avant Daytona & Phantom

Hi. Thank you. It’s an ocd labour of love :) There are professional photographers at the Nurburgring. They load them to a site where you can order the digital files. Got loads from different angles. It’s a great day out. No need to worry about ‘racing’. You can just go at your pace whilst letting th...

Re: JamesBaby’s B7 RS4 Avant Daytona & Phantom

Thank you. In May I had another euro trip and this time went to Cologne and then onto the Nurburgring for the first time. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240918/3ac7d17a054f8cfa41b78f88748a935f.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240918/520f66f9bc80f565fb6bab65deba7b59.jpg https://uploads.tapa...

Amazing work on the Car Play and the charger base. Things like that really update these cars.

Re: JamesBaby’s B7 RS4 Avant Daytona & Phantom

I also renewed the brakes. Again Reyland were the perfect option along with DS2500 pads all round. I’ve posted earlier in this thread my process so here are some pics. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240906/6983819748a86273e5c4bc075ba80a66.jpg Clean hubs.

Re: JamesBaby’s B7 RS4 Avant Daytona & Phantom

Injector service and carbon clean. Earlier in the year in February I did a carbon clean and injector overhaul. I just realised I didn’t put it in my blog so this info precedes the fuel pumps mentioned in the previous post. I sent 8 injectors to Decimal Tenths in the UK. They came back perfect, with ...
