The LED flickered though, any idea how to get around that? That's usually a sign that the bulb failure warning system isn't happy with the much lower load from the LED than a bulb. Thanks again Dave. It worked fine with both sides installed (included resistors). Look so much better than oem halogen...

Yes, that worked. Thanks Dave. Luckily, the Q7 bulb holder has connectors that can be unplugged and swapped around. (unlike the RS4). The LED flickered though, any idea how to get around that?

Well, here is my attempt and I tried both resistor 25W 10R (from Andyuk911) and 50W 22R (similar to Rjkflyer, can't get hold of 24R). 25W 10R definite generate too much heat, 160 degrees Celsius whereas 50W 22R put out around 68-70 degrees (which is still too hot to hold with your fingers but should...

My god! Are your pressures correct??? Hi Marcus, I had 38psi rear and 40 psi front cold. The mileage included 2 track days (15 mins session every hour, 6 sessions per day) On track days, I run them with 42 psi warm. Wheel alignment problem? I don't think so either as I had it done straight after wh...

RE: epc & engine light

I had the same thing like yours but not the misfiring. They ended up replacing the whole intake manifold under warranty.

Help with vagcom

A friend has a vagcom and going to help me doing the intake flap test tomorrow

Any head up on how to log any other faults or useful things to check for our RS4 while I have access to the vagcom?

Thanks guys.

Comments on Bridgestone Potenza RE-11

Is this available in UK yet? And has anyone used it on their RS4? It's been around for a year in Japan and the US finally got them from March this year. Reviews have been very positive. I'm thinking of importing them into Australia.

Any comments on this tyre would be appreciated. TIA

Hi P_G, did you end up doing the RR and found any noticeable improvement with the airbox de-flap mod? Did you remove the air horn as well or just de-flap?
btw, your CF bonnet looks great. Mine is phantom black too and can do with one like yours. How much lighter is it compare to oem bonnet?
Thanks.

Is it a common practice in UK to hide rego plate when listing for sale? It's law that we must list the rego over here.

[quote= Not sure how far the clutch has to be down![/quote]

Well, I checked it and it has to be pretty much fully depressed in order to start the engine. Oh well, it was a good thought.

RE: Re: RE: Clutch stop for RS4?

Thanks Sonny. One more thing came to my mind is will the clutch stop prevent us from starting the engine if the clutch is not "fully" depressed?
