Re: B8 RS4 active cruise control

That's a worry, though I haven't heard of anyone else making the same complaint, maybe you should get it checked out?

I guess with all these driver aids you have to have your wits about you, though my car has side assist (when it comes) I will still probably glance sideways to double check!!

Re: Just collected! Running in and other questions

You will always get conflicting views on running in, but if you're already looking for LC it sounds as though you've decided which way to go! My wife's SQ came with roof bars as standard, my RS comes in the New Year and I'd assumed it would also come with bars, is it worth asking your dealer?

Re: Audi have messed up big time!!!! Very upset !!!

Going to buck the trend here but Derby came up trumps for me and matched DtD which kings Lynn wouldn't do. That said my dealings with KL were fine and I would rate them above a number of others, it's also likely that as I'm fairly local to derby they pushed harder.

Re: 24 year old newbie from Australia

The price you guys have to pay is one thing that would put me off emigrating! Fair play to you, especially at your age, what does the insurance cost for a 24 year old over there?

Re: Eibach spacers

You may find that 10mm is the minimum, otherwise they may not be hub centric (which is a must). Speak to Virdee, he knows his stuff but can be slow to respond.

Re: What next?

I'd be tempted to see how the C63 performs, if it's as expected and were out right now it would probably get the nod for me over the RS4. I've gone past the stage of toys in the garage (for now) because I realised that I just didn't get my monies worth, but it took me about 20 years to get there so ...

Re: Eibach spacers

I'm no expert but I think the key is to make sure that the spacers are hub centric, that's the first question to ask the supplier.

Re: looking to de badge

Spoke to Virdee today, he seems to think the locking bolt is only available in chrome but was going to check and get back to me. It is too small to fit the plastic cap apparently. Well he supplied mine and I can assure you there black, mention Silas's car to him He wasn't entirely sure mate and I d...

Re: looking to de badge

I've never used it but my nephew applied it to badges on his VW a little while ago and I was impressed with the finish, I actually thought they were replacement badges. He is quite handy and i suspect would make a far better job of it than me but it certainly doesn't look like it's going to peel off...

Re: Mythos black

Nice spec. My dealer told me that they've simply renamed Panther, though I have not seen Mythos in the flesh and we all know how reliable dealer info is!
