Indicators

The passenger side front indicator is working intermittently, causing rest of bulbs to flash faster. Looking at past posts is this likely to be the relay even if it is only one bulb? If it's a bulb/bulb-holder issue how to you change it? Mark Silver S4 Avant, W reg, 99K, full leather, no modificatio...

Haynes manual

I know the Haynes manual only covers 4 cvl cars but is it any use for the rest, suspension brakes etc?

Also the light indicator in instrument cluster is very faint (difficult to see) is this normal or is there a way to increase brightness.

Thanks, Mark

Get a tow-bar and a rack that fits to the tow bar, I think Witter do one. They have a plate that fits behind the tow ball and the rack slots into that.

You of course have to add the cost of the tow bar...

First impressions are that it's pretty fast (understatement) but can be driven in a relaxed way. Just knowing that you can out fl...

DIS replacement

Seen a S$ I'm interested in, T reg, 125K miles, cloth interior but very clean and runs well, <£6K and that includes a cam belt replacement. My only query is the DIS display is faulty, missing lines of display, although seems to work. How much will it cost to replace and is it a DIY job? Tyres are on...

Is this a stupid thing to do...

New here... I've read as much information as I can on the site, all very useful. Thinking of buying a S4 Avant and have seen one for less than £6K, T reg looks like it's got the face-lift body, 123K, full Audi service history, with cloth (is this alacantra?). I realise economy isn't going to be bril...
