Re: RS6 Re-conditioned Gearbox and Fitting Service
Ok, 3 private messages about my steroid-induced early hour ramblings asking if i am a steroid junkie. As part of my chemotherapy on every other Friday they give me a lovely big steroid injection of some sort. I am actually only partially insane chaps.
Numb fingers etc are one of the more minor side affects of all this.

Re: RS6 Re-conditioned Gearbox and Fitting Service
About 25% through the initial treatment so time will tell but already have more motion in my neck where the second biggest tumour was so that is good.
I haven't driven the car but madam is raving about it. The mapping appears to be spot on, the superpro bushes all round including dog mount and steering rack have tightened it all up excellently with no increase in cabin noise etc that she can tell. Car is much quicker all round and she doesn't have a single negative thing to say about it. The non-res Milltek is quiet though but I put that down to the massive back box design of the S3.
The guys at AmD were great again, went through everything, gave me detailed laminated mapping results, huge itemised list of parts and work done and the experience couldn't have been any better to beperfectly honest.
