Having just acquired a B7 RS4 I see there's a bottle of tyre sealer and a pump to deal with basic punctures, given it's probably the original one from '07 will it still be OK to use or do they have a shelf life and need replacing?

There should be an expiry date on it. If it is the original one then it is certainly past it's date. I couldn't tell you if it will still work though.

It should have an expiry date - from memory of my old B7, this was 5 years or so.
Prices vary to replace, but bear in mind exactly the same across the various VAG brands.

Can't rememebr how much I paid but got one with a long life off ebay.de. Just search using the part number.

I wouldn't both with the tyre weld crap. I always carry this as my puncture solution.

Personally I'd rather use something supplied by Audi than a ten quid repair kit that's meant for off road use.

I was told by an audi dealer to forget the puncture repair kit and just call out audi Assistance. ...

Mine has just expired and I replaced it with one off e bay for £15 before it went into the dealers as they make a bee line for it and want about £50 ( the e bay one was genuine vag shyte )
