Definitely driving sensibly Brice9 - we were doing 50 through road works

Friday mid afternoon followed White rs4 cab junctions 9 to 8 m25 and new s6 avant followed me down the a23 all the way to roundabout top of mill road Brighton. I was in my dirty Moro blue s4 avant - both cars made a boring journey more interesting!

try 1111 as well - worked for mine

Hi

The flywheel is being replaced today - the central hub/boss/whatver the hell you call it had decided to follow it's own path. Thanks for all the replies, I'm going off to weep gently onto a large bill

Cheers!

Cool. Now leaves me a question - how do I post an image here?!

Why is it a never see any other S/RS Audis in Brighton or Hove?! If anyone sees me in my Moro blue S4 BN55 *** around Hove give me a wave so I don't feel left out!

Hi. I had exactly the same problem. Initially no click from near the relay(?) (to the right of the steering wheel) which was fixed by replacing the ignition switch. When the "click" started the car still wouldn't start so replaced the starter motor and all has been fine since - started first time ye...

Got my car back complete with new starter motor and all seems well so far.....

Heard back from the dealer and apparently the starter motor has gone - current is getting to it but doesn't pass beyond it. They did mention that apparently changing the starter motor on a B8 S4 is an engine out job and costs about £3k!!!! Changing the ignition switch did make a difference for me - ...
