New daily - B9 RS4

Back in the parish after a few years of Range Rover ownership - Hope to 'see' a few old faces here again. Carbon black 2022 B9 RS4 delivered last Friday. Has RS sport exhaust and B+O but normal suspension (which suits me). So far so good! Just need to swap those gangsta black wheels out for some sil...

Wanted: B9 RS4/RS5 20" alloys in Silver

Have just bought a new B9 RS4, the 'Carbon Black' version which has gloss black wheels which I don't particuarly like.
If anyone happens to have a set of original silver 20" wheels (as per photo attached) with or without tyres please let me know!

Wanted - S3 alloys 17" or 18" for 8L model 2001

Looking out for a set of original (avus/ronal or RS4 style spokes) 17" or 18" alloys for a 2001 S3.
I believe it's an E5x100 fitment
Preferably in good condition, with or without tyres, preferably original Ronal/Audi.
Does anyone have any lurking around in the back of their garage somewhere...?

S3 FRK Plate for sale (reduced!)

Hello all *reduced to a more realistic price!* I have recently acquired an S3 with an S3 FRK plate on it, which I really don't want but might suit a Frederick, Frank or Farouk (or whatever). I thought I'd offer it on here before passing it to the PH or trade hounds. No idea how much to ask but guess...

Re: Brake screech - the final straw

I've managed to persuade her that you guys say audi are sorting it at factory level and a solution will be forthcoming shortly! I agree that shims sound like the answer but am reluctant to do anything non-OEM just yet. Meanwhile I've said she can use my Range Rover until it's sorted, so I get to use...

Brake screech - the final straw

'My' rs3 is actually the mrs's ride and she is now so bored and annoyed with the whole brake squeal thing that she returns it every week to the dealer (blackburn, who in fairness are sympathetic and give otherwise excellent service). However this week will i think be the fourth or fifth time she's s...

Re: Milltek cat bypass fitted
