The headlight washers don't work even though its ment to have been just mot'd.
First thing in the morning I have no crank then suddenly burst's into life???
I've a knock at the o/s/f think it's the upper arms.
The arm rest catch is broken.
The aux radiator has started leaking to at the drivers side.
The air-con needs recharged other wise it's a cracking motor.

For everything else give Nigel a call at Pickwick Performance, he has a good knowledge and his prices for work are cheap compared to Audi.

You mention Pickwick Performance, i'm a new RS4 Avant owner and bide out near Alford (Phantom black, heated Recaros, fbsw, sat nav, Bose etc but mechanically standard at moment) and was wondering if they had a good rep and were up to speed with The RS?
On a different note, can't get the cd multichanger working, noticed on here there can be issues so i guess i'll just fiddle about with it......previous owner left a 32gb sd card in one of the slots so gonna load that with sounds and see how it goes.
He had also recently installed a Parrot bluetooth system which works great if anyone was thinking of one.

Nigel knows them well, has had a few go through his hands.

The changer not working may be to do with the parrot install. If you fancy a run up my way we can run the VCDS on it and check it out.

I bought my car from Neville at pickwick performance back in Jan 2010. He is used to Audis and owned an R8 at the time I bought my car.

Seemed like a knowledgeable guy - check out the web page. They have good premises and a tidy workshop.
