Re: F/S B8 RS4 Daytona 10k miles

It seems all my PM's that I try and send get stuck in the outbox so apologies if you are not receiving my messages.

I have replied to certain people on tyresmoke where your car history and username match up.

OK, apparently that is how the PM system works until someone has read it. Most odd.

F/S B8 RS4 Daytona 10k miles

This has been the best car I have ever owned but unfortunately I am in the process of emigrating and as such it has to go. (Worst bit is I am going to the USA where they don't sell the RS4 or the RS6, gutted) One owner from new 10k miles (Currently on 9910) Nov 13 (63 plate, facelifted model with ne...

Re: Before and after remap

FYI, regarding fuel types. I spoke to a chap who ran a refinery for Exxon and he said avoid ALL supermarket fuels and only use Shell and BP for your aluminium engines. We were talking specifically about the RS4 at the time. His reasoning was that Shell and BP use single source petrol which passes th...

Re: Took my car in for a little clean....

Ha, did you get your alloys refurbed as well? Gary told me that a brand new blue one came in and the better half had curbed all four corners in the 4 days... I work in Notting Hill so it is convenient for me. I might need to do the same given my resin problems. Tempted my Liquid perfection as well b...

Re: Knocking suspension when cold

Just a quick update, sorry for taking so long.

My suspension was under pressured from factory! They repressurised it and all is fine again. Had this done in Jan and no issues since.

Took my car in for a little clean....

...after a 660 mile round trip and about 10,000 dead insects it needed a little TLC. Plus all the sand my little man dragged into the car! Not bad for £100. Might go up a level as I have some horrid resin marks on my roof and bonnet which are very very annoying. Full album here https://www.facebook....

Re: Knocking suspension when cold

Hmm, just spoke to Audi and they have no service bulletin logged against my VIN. Have it booked in for mid Jan so we will see what they have logged by then.

Knocking suspension when cold

So my car is only 3 weeks old but when it is cold the suspension knocks quite a bit when I hit a bump when cold.

It seems to stop when the car is up to temp. Is this a charecter trait or something wrong with the car?

My Online Traffic has stopped working

I still get Audi connect and can use the WiFi in the car but it has stopped saying online in the bottom left corner and just says TMC all the time.

Any advice, I have checked the settings and Online traffic is turned on.

Many thanks.

Re: Hi guys

Sounds great, brave going for Alcantara, but if you are just handing the car back I guess it does not matter. Enjoy the wait, it is worth it!

Re: Collecting tomorrow!

Ok, firstly, I had a great experience at Bristol Audi. They were to notch, gave me both the iphone and USB adapter for the car plus a nice Audi keying and Audi metal tax disc holder. Silly little things like that always make a difference, it's the thought that counts. ;) Now, the car. What a beauty,...
