Re: Audi repair

Actually this is even easier as split and can match the OD of the other conduit. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AUPROTEC-Corrugated-Cable-Protection-choice-2m-metre/dp/B078B2K9FZ/ref=pd_sbs_107_6/260-6529583-6951330?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B078B2K9FZ&pd_rd_r=e82d0bec-4dc8-49f0-8dd9-329d33c360fb&pd_rd_w=buo...

Re: FS RS4 B7 Avant Avus Silver

Thanks it is the end of an era and a great car. I am pleased/slightly sad to say the car is now sold. I am sure the new owner will enjoy RS4 ownership as much as I have.

Re: Audi repair

I can see why they do it like that - as if tracing an electrical fault the repaired wires are probably the first place to look. That said I would not be happy with that at all ! I would hide it with this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/sourcingmap%C2%AE-Conduit-Corrugated-Bellows-Outside/dp/B01AR9S2GW/re...

Re: TPMS woes

I would re-enable TPMS and can trouble shoot it from there. A failed sender is definitely a yellow tyre with line through it, I think you get yelloe/red as low pressure in one tyre without the line through it for low pressure. If you have VCDS see what the sensors are telling you after having taken ...

Re: Aux rad help

I used to keep them clean and never really noticed the classic signs - it was howver obvious really as my coolant needed topping up and of course now it doesn't. I probably had them replaced sooner than strictly necessary but didn't want to risk a failure.

Re: SEAT Exeo RNSE Sat Nav in B7 RS4...

I had similar when I fitted a non CAN satnav (MFD) into a VW which had canbus controlling the stereo (fortunately no amp). I had to find the appropriate wires around the car - as suggested easiest will likely be some way of activating the amp when ignition of better still the stereo comes on if you ...

Long story short Audi replaced a headlight under warranty in 2015 and unbeknownst to me also replaced the ballast so when I changed the bal...

Re: Anybody fitted these?

Not those actual ones - I bought mine from eBay. They are very easy to fit, as as are the bulbs once the headlights are out of the car. I took advantage when the bumper was off and replaced headlight bulbs, indicator bulbs & ballasts (one was flickering). Just make sure you get the ones for adaptive...

Re: Potential move from //M

Servicing is close to an A4 but with more oil. Brakes have come down in price now but wise to budget 1000 per axle as you say. DRC is a mixed bag - mine is on the V2 DRC or whatever it is (replaced under warranty) when it fails I will probably look at alternatives although it still seems fine. Auxil...
