Re: RS4 BRAKE JUDDER

I posted another thread about this but I am on my sixth set of discs and it is only this time that they have replaced the hubs as they were running out of true - I had suggested to the dealers on numerous occasions that they ought to look elsewhere and after a peek on these forums and a chat with Ca...

Re: Help/Advice Neeed

I have gone through at least 5 sets of warped discs since August 2010. They would be fine for a few weeks and then after a month the dreaded wobble would begin to creep in. After the second time I said to my Audi dealer that there has to be something else causing the judder and then the subsequent w...

Re: B7 RS4 Recaro Comfort - Bucket swap

Having had a normal Audi A4 cab and now an RS4 cab, the seats are exactly the same I'm afraid and certainly nowhere as good as the Recaro's I had in my B5 S4. The RS4 logo isn't even stitched in, it is embossed!

Re: Oil cooler pipes corrosion....under warranty?

I had them done under warranty on my B5 S4 due to them corroding if that helps.

Re: After the new shocks, car is higher at front

I really appreciate the responses guys, thanks, it has put my mind at rest and I'll just see if it settles down a bit more after a few miles are put on them.

After the new shocks, car is higher at front

After picking up my car from the dealers yesterday I thought the front of the car looked higher over the wheels than the rear and if I am honest it looks so awful I can't imagine that it used to be like that (unless DRC paranoia is taking over). I wasn't very scientific but I parked up on level grou...

Re: Dynavin units for Audi

Thanks for flagging this up PetrolDave - quite an omission not having the TMC but I wonder if they get the 3G thing together, whether the unit will be able to use Google Maps and update via that.

Dynavin units for Audi

Just wondered if anyone had any experience of the Dynavin units that have appeared for the Audi's. The look pretty neat from the images on the website but would like to know if anyone has fitted one. I have the normal RNS-E in my RS4 and although it is OK, my missus would prefer a touch screen Sat-N...

Sorry to ask quite probably a daft question regarding the DRC but I'm a new RS4 owner.

How do you know what pressure you are getting with the DRC and also, what are the signs that it might be "playing up"?

Thank you very much for the input so far, I really appreciate folk taking the time to answer a newbies query. There is a trace of that milky whiteness that some posters have witnessed and was tempted to try either the Autoglym Resin or some Victoria Wax Deep Cleanser but was worried that it may harm...

I've not seen an RS4 saloon or avant close up to compare the trim but on the RS4 cab it is more of a matt aluminium/alloy trim than I have on my 3.0 cab or S4 Avant, which is smoother and comes up well with normal cleaning products.

I find it strange that it seems to be the least popular colour amongst folk concerned with resale values of RS4's but to me it was a no brainer as we have a Moro blue 3.0 cab for my girlfriend as it is her favourite car colour so it just looks like we have a newer version of that now on the drive (t...

Cleaning the "alloy" trim on RS4 cab

Just taken ownership of a lovely Mugello blue 07' RS4 cabriolet and am looking for some advice regarding the best cleaning products to use on the matt aluminium trim and windscreen surround that it has. The wing mirrors appear to be painted plastic and are easily cleaned but the other trim seems to ...
