Re: Daytona Grey B7 RS4

Word of warning to people; when I changed the front tyres, I had Pirelli P Zero tyres all round. It always felt quite draggy on the steering but I put that down to wide tyres. I check the tyre pressures regularly so knew it wasn't that. I also regularly check tyre tread. However, my car was parked o...

Re: Daytona Grey B7 RS4

So yesterday decided to give the car a full service as it's due, plus then I know the true status (don't really trust dealers). Replaced the air filter, pollen filter, spark plugs, oil and oil filter. All very easy jobs. Can't understand how that is over £800 at a dealer. Takes about 3 hours taking ...

Re: Daytona Grey B7 RS4

Yes the wheels came up good. The only downside is the pads are generating a LOT of brake dust so much so that in this weather (damp and rain - UK) the wheels look graphite in colour. I need to wash the wheels almost every time I drive her :rant: What pads are people using that are less dusty and lea...

Re: Anyone need replacement intake flap actuator linkage parts?

Late response, but as a recent new RS owner I’d be interested if you do fabricate them. Have you progressed the development of these?
