Newbie

Post by S7UOB » Thu Feb 25, 2016 6:25 pm

Hello all ,

Picked up my rs4 avant about 2 weeks ago now . Some of you may already know the car....

Going to do a full service soon , what oil is everyone using in there's ? Was going to use 5w40 millers nanodrive cts but wondered if anyone else has any good recommendations, car gets used daily aswell . What spark plugs are best aswell ? Image

Also where is the best place to buy led lights from for interior ?

Car is sitting on accuair air suspension, I know some people may frown upon this and "think" it won't handle well etc but the car handles amazing and far better than my last car which was a edition 30 mk5 golf on coilovers .

Only have a few pics of it just now after doing a 840mile round trip to get it so it was abit manky with all the salt/grit on the roads .

Welcome. That's an interesting looking RS. Haven't seen that for sale anywhere. Is that the standard centre console wrapped/retrimmed? Looks great

Yeah interior/boot build and guessing air suspension has been done by plush automotive. It has been retrimmed , basically the full interior has been redone . I'll get more pics of it when I give it a good proper clean .

I got it from a company in Southampton and I'm from just outside Edinburgh, some drive home that was ! Also had it over in Ireland at the weekend .

Any good ideas of how to clean suede haha ?

Welcome and very nice car. Sure the interior is a bit marmite but it's certainly very different
