Re: FOR SALE: RS4 Avant B8 Sepang Blue, 12700miles, 1 Owner

Its sold. To a now ex-merc / BMW fan. To Quote: "I've never driven and a RS Quattro - It exceeds all my expectations"

I showed him some good roads which were damp and greasy and encouraged him to drive it like it was designed.

I think we've a new fan. :jump:

Re: Front wheel judder/slip in full lock/reverse

I can confirm this is normal for the "proper" Quattro system i.e. not the haldex. That said, it might do it to, I've never had one. Everyone of my 4 cars has done this i.e. B5 S4, B5 RS4, B7 RS4 and B8 RS4. If we're talking about the same judder/scrubbing, it is most noticeable full lock both forwar...

Re: Living with an RS4 - comments please

I find there's a massive difference between the settings. I only use comfort when transporting my granny! The Dynamic mode, while stiff, isn't harsh, I've only used it occasionally if going for a particular spirited drive on a relatively smooth road. I find the standard setting is pretty much spot o...

Cheers chaps for the compliments.

Dhali - that's great to know your brother still has my first RS4. Wow, that must be approx 8-9 years ago!

Dan Khan - sorry I'm not looking for a PX.

Re: FOR SALE: RS4 Avant B8 Sepang Blue, 12700miles, 1 Owner

Re the brakes I have the tyres, maintenance and service package which Audi UK pay for anything and everything - if its not right. So the brakes became noisy (I wasn't using the car enough or being hard enough on the brakes) The dealership tried replacing the pads - didn't work then magically measure...

Re: Sports Exhaust - black tips - degradation

I too finally got my exhaust tips replaced. Like Simon 82 I had numerous discussions with Audi customer services. They "empower" the dealerships to handle such issues, i.e. the dealership decides how much they value your custom. Mine were replaced under "good will" i.e. at the dealership's expense. ...

Re: Sports Exhaust - black tips - degradation

Same problem here, My car is not quite a year old. They started going after only 4months. I took it to my dealer today who are very good, but their hands are tied. He showed me a technical bulletin Audi have released on this issue. The last sentence of the bulletin stated warranty and good will be r...

Having not been on the site very much lately - I wondered what "FON" was.

Re: For Sale: RS4 Avant B7 2007 Misano £19.5k

Cheers for the comments - I wasn't sure what price to put it up for. Looking around the prices vary quite significantly but then I've seen a few lower millage examples that are not as good nick and need some money spent on them. So I'll see how it goes. I should have put it up for sale near 6months ...

Re: Who's had a B7 and now has a B8? (pics please)

I've still got my B7 and the new B8. I'm a bit ashamed to say I just haven't found the time to advertise it - that's nearly 6 months! :bash: Its finally up for sale though. Its nice to drive them back to back from time to time. They are such different creatures to the point the B7 easily holds its o...

Re: Question to RS owners - brake dust on alloys

Sorry to take this off topic, but what is the Brembo upgrade? As far as I can tell from the photo, that caliper and disk is identical to the calipers on my B7 (other than its yellow). Which is no surprise as the stock caliper is made by Brembo.

Re: Buying with unknown history (Northern Ireland)

but NI just doesn't have the same "stringent" rules as the uk so I'm less comfortable. Will probably pass. Thanks anyway N. Ireland is still part of the UK last time I looked! And still falls under everything that comes out of Westminster and Brussels as well for that matter. Yup as Barrbudden says...
