Re: Std Wheel Refinishing

Wraptition from Southampton using Suntek Ultra I think. Looks good, had the whole bonnet, bumper, mirrors and lights done. Took the best part of a day to do.

Re: Std Wheel Refinishing

Its just waiting for the paint protection film on the bumpers and bonnet then I might chance on Hampshire's roads which are totally destroyed at the moment. Really liking the Virtual Dash & HUD, menu system less so. Sounds quite good but missing the V8 start up. PS Apparently you can't get a Nardo P...

Std Wheel Refinishing

So i'm one of the few people who seems to have ordered an RS5. Nardo with black optics is inbound as I type but with the 19inch 10 spoke std wheels. I think they look a bit too bling in silver and wondered if anybody has had theirs refinished in Gunmetal or black. Seen one that had been done on Auto...

Re: Dynamic Ride - is it worth it

Interesting, I have a Q5 & RS4 B8 with Drive Select and they certainly adjust ride comfort when in Comfort as opposed to Dynamic.

Re: Dynamic Ride - is it worth it

Actually Drive select is Standard - so you still get 4 modes.

Dynamic Ride seems to improve control over roll and pitch via the DRC, unless there is more to it that I haven't discovered yet.

Dynamic Ride - is it worth it

I'm wondering if folks feel that the Dynamic Ride option is worth ticking at £2k on the RS5.

Just trying to keep the ludicrous costs under control a bit.

Re: Tyres - Whats everybody getting

Price Update Mytyres are offering £242.50 for the Pilot Sport 4s although they aren't rated R01 / R02 and my Audi dealer says they aren't a recommended fitting, Michelin unsurprisingly say its ok. Some talk on other forums of Audi cutting up rough if you have warranty suspension work with non approv...

Tyres - Whats everybody getting

Chaps, Currently got the Pirelli rubber with 19k mile on them, so i'm looking for new tyres with less tram lining etc. Looking back on a few threads it looks like Bridgestone's are better and the current offering seems to be the Potenza S007 at pushing £250, actually Camskill are offering £210. So I...

Spare Wheel

Chaps, Having no faith in the can of tyre sealant, i'm looking at getting some sort of spare wheel. Not much on ebay for the B8 at the moment, new wheel before tyre is £1109.64 at my local Audi and space savers are banned due to issues with the diff. So just wondering what everybody else is doing fo...
