Think its time to part with my RS4 - Azure Blue

After 2 years of ownership I think I am about ready to part with the RS. No real reason other than I fancy a change. Just not sure what to price it at. Its a really rare colour (Azure Blue) which I am led to believe there are only maybe 2 or 3 of and has the light grey interior with carbon pack and ...

I thought it was Azure blue that was rare with only 2 or 3 examples?

To achieve 550 brake you must be running a T4; 8 greys with an RS500 plenum, BD14's, RS500 I/C, RS500 Thermostat, RS500 throttle body, swirl pot and oil breather system, possibly water inj ? :) Nope. None of that stuff! Thats so 1990's YB spec! Externally gated GT30 on tubular exhaust, 4 Siemans 85...

Re: RE: Re: Mad Noise!!! Awesome car!!

Its so obviously a missed gear and rev limiter??? Sorry, but no! 900Bhp highly modified, has launch control and traction control (same as MotoGP bikes and F1 last year). Think it's got sequential gearbox too, changes gear faster than you can blink. Popping and banging at start is anti-lag to give b...

RS4 Rear Bumper Removal

Ive seen a few posts on towbar fitting and am about to do mine later today.

How easy is the rear bumper to remove? I have searched on here but not come across any threads describing it?

Anyone tell me if its easy and how?

Or post a link to somewhere its described?

Thanks,

Yep the green 4 pin sensor does work with the engine management aswell. Cheers. So if the sender is faulty (vagcom says it is) the dash dont work and I guess the ECU is seeing the wrong signal or that the car is stone cold all the time? It still runs really nice which is odd as I thought it would h...

Does the green temp sensor feed just the gauge on the dash or does it also give the engine management its water temp too? (or is there another separate sensor for the ECU)

RE: b5 rs4 v 996 turbo

You will have to work the RS4 more but it should pull away. Try side by side in 6th at around 50 or 60 mph and watch the Porsche just walk away from you though. Got way more low down grunt.
