Re: Replacement Alloys

Is there an audi speedline split rim cross spoke 19 or 20 that fits?

I think I've seen them on s5 or rs5 and possibly 'regular' S6.

"upgrading" to Pioneer touch-screen

Does anybody know what functionality would be lost (steering wheel controls / in-dash sat-nav display) would be lost if one were to change the new Pioneer Touch-screen satnavs? Could the existing gps aerial be used??

Top 5 mods (S6 C5)

All, I started a similar thread on the S4 forum - what would the guys who know recomend as their top 5 mods for the sublime S6? I cant get much of a gague from the previous threads about what it desirable / possible while still keeping the car an everyday road machine except for map and exhaust. I a...

Re: Top 5 B6/B7 mods

Interesting nobody has yet mentioned wheel upgrades - I imagine the 'original' style 6 spoke and the s-line/re6 style 5 spoke are not exactly light? Nice to see your generaly opinions are more or less the same (get the handling sorted / let it breathe)!! liking the idea of the supercharger... :biggr...

Top 5 B6/B7 mods

So for those who have done some modding, what would your top 5 mods be??

I am thinking along the lines of remap / suspension / arb / poly bushes / sports cat / down pipes / exhaust / intake manifold ...

Cheers!!

RS4 rear diffuser??

Just a random question really as I dont (yet) have an S4 but does the RS4 rear diffuser fit the standard S4 rear bumper?

Interesting option to allow big oval exhausts or larger quads!!

Re: Winter Tyres

night and day compared to Pilot Sport II's!!

Not surprised - to quote from Tyretraders.co.uk - "The Pilot Sport PS2 is not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice."

Re: Anyone recommend Gearbox refurb company?

Are you still looking for this? What area are you?? About 2004ish I had an autobox on a Saab 9000 Aero rebuilt by TopGear near Leicester (their number then was 0116 2301301) as that was who I was told Bond Street Saab used to send their stuff to. Much more tricky operation than a manual due to the f...

RE: 4.2 increased power outputs

Fair enough - I had been under the mis-impression that the RS4 was turbo like RS6, but must have been confusing that with the original 2.7 version. Still, a remap and exhaust should make this as fast as you ever need if it is not already!! Does anybody bother to get into the realms of matching the h...

Gotta say I am actually a fan, at least the wood is grey rather than brown, admittedly carbon would be better. I find the silver body / black leather and alu trim a bit boring and samey. This would be great for keeping and showing. If it was a avant I would be VERY tempted but the saloon is just not...
