Re: Audi Approved Used - What a Joke!

I'd love to know which dealer this cock-up of a car came from in the first place. Being based about 250 miles north of Cornwall it would be helpful to know to avoid them from RS products in the future. Or indeed any other Audi!

Re: S5 Coupe for sale - Tiptronic, Sprint Blue

Sorry, I'm being selfish. For those who want the non-tip figures too (if you're interested). I hope the table comes through ok. All prices are a normal arithmetic average. For info, average mileage across the board was 34,990. By the looks of it, private sellers (myself included) are hoping to close...

Re: S5 Coupe for sale - Tiptronic, Sprint Blue

Guys, thanks for the comments. Ian - no offence will be taken, I've always found on here we're an honest bunch and if you've got an opinion please say as it will at least give me an idea of what others are thinking, 'others' being my potential market I suppose! I've been through EVERY 08 S5 on pisto...

Re: S5 Coupe for sale - Tiptronic, Sprint Blue

OK, so my dealer was over-egging it if I want to sell this car this side of Christmas. Maybe he meant that's what they'd retail it at. Does £27k sound more realistic? Open to comments for anyone on here who's in the know and can make useful suggestions? I've got it on PHs. Is there anywhere else I s...

Re: 2006 (56) RS4 Avant - Sprint blue - FS - reduced to £24.

Good luck with this sale. I really hope you sell this before the stealers get their meat. They'll make a killing on this at the prices they're quoting you! Somebody may as well bag a 'bargain' on here!

Re: Are the Tiptronics anygood?

Matt, good choice. That's a wicked spec. You'll have a blast in Europe in that. I've dealt with Stoke/Stafford Audi before and they are good blokes. They've had that car for a good few months, so I hope you're getting a good deal on it! If it falls through, give me a shout as mine's up for sale as I...

Re: S5 Coupe for sale - Tiptronic, Sprint Blue

Registered at the end of May 2008. Sorry, I should've mentioned that.

It was my local dealer that suggested the sort of price given the condition of the car. As I said open to offers.

S5 Coupe for sale - Tiptronic, Sprint Blue

After some fantastic times in the S5, I'm selling up. Change of job means I can walk to work so the amount of motoring I'll be now doing doesn't justify, or do justice, to the superb car currently on my drive. So, the spec is: Tiptronic gearboxm Sprint Blue, 19" S5 wheels, silk nappa silver coloured...

Re: Are the Tiptronics anygood?

Matt, I've got an auto S5 and drive it everyday. I also test drove a few manual S5s before I got mine. The Tip box in the S5 is excellent. In D it's lovely to drive without the car always wanting to rev it's nuts off - something I always found the RS4 did and it made it a pig to drive in traffic. If...

Audi car monitor app for the iPhone

Has anyone hear anything about this? I've read a few suggestions on the net but can't find anything after Nov 2010 when the trail goes dead.

Anyone?

Steve, can't thank you enough for taking the time to answer our queries in such detail. Mine will be due a clean next week so I'll have a play then. I'll mix up a 1" to a bottle dilution and then a 2" as you say. As you said I could store the different dilutions for use at a later date. TBH, I don't...

RE: Wind noise

Hi I've made some progress (new door seals on both sides as per an audi TSB) but there's still a noise. I think it's just a case that the window isn't going up far enough. You can see the rounded corner of the window when it's fully up (ie when the door's shut). Can you guys see the same thing or ar...

Steve, what ratio do you use with Magifoam? I've been using it for a while now (with an AB Lance and Karcher Series 2) but can't get the stuff to hang around for more than 10 mins. I'd love to get the 'real gillette style foan' you speak of.
