I've got a red one with privacy glass all round. I love the colour to be honest as the blacks etc are just to dull for me. But as what people are saying, everyone is different and you'll know in your gut when you see one if its right for you. Personally Im delighted I went for a red one - had been ...

Just pull them off. I did this when I got mine. Keep prising at each end and they will just pull off. You will be left with quite ugle adhesive residue from the sticky pads - I find the best way to get rid of this is to SOAK it in petrol for about 10 mins and then rub off with a cloth soaked in petr...

Whats the purpose of the DRL's?

Hi guys

Just can't get this one...

The Daytime Running Lights - why are they on the RS4? Why not just turn on your normal lights?

I'm obviously missing something....only have the car a few weeks.

Thanks!

Holy Sh!t. This is very interesting. This makes sense to me as I see my car having a "surge" of power up the gears at around 5,500 rpm all the way to 8,000rpm - that must be the valves opening? At idle I could see them open, but had no idea they closed again. So I assume that the hose disconnected l...

Very tidy :wink:

You can't be paid to do that sort of work IMO.

Getting mine done hopefully in 2 weeks. A guy I know did my STI before and spent about 12 hours on her as she had ton's of swirls - left her like brand new so he did, no better than brand new. £100, and there was 2 of them at her!

My bluetooth is through a flimsy Nokia gadget on the dash and I can only get it to connect one in every 10 goes. Even when it connects it looses it after a bit. Makes the same annoying noise when trying to connect and disconnect - also mutes the radio/cd player etc when this is happening for about 2...

Re: RE: Re: RE: I have no cradle, but do I still have blueto

Defo worth it as it saves having to have some nasty stuff stuck on the dash, the option itself was not much more OEM & as long as you've not got a Nokia N Series phone, you'll get full functionality through the Infotainment system icluding address book etc. I cover a good 20K miles per annum so it'...

Hi guys Have my RS4 1 week today and lovin it. :D I have a question re bluetooth with my MMI screen thingmayjigger. When I select "tel" it asks me to use my mobile phone. Audi tells me today that unless I have a cradle (I don't) then I do not have bluetooth. The previous owner has a flimsy little No...

Re: RE: If you

I've gotta ask.... Why buy an RS4 to drive at 40-50 mph and average 29mpg? If you're not careful, your car will complain about meing misused! ;) I was getting 29mpg driving at 60mph. What I was trying to explain was that you do not get the feeling like in the STI where you go "staging" around roads...

Sorry - been off for a few days picking up the beast.

Cant get a hold of that one at all. Had a look at my car and there is mats on her already, not RS4 printed, but plain, so I think they will do for me at the present. You get your beast yet?
