Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

Been thinking the same to get a B9 RS4 ! Had a B5 RS4 for over 15 years and miss having a fast wagon. Got a 718S Cayman but I would keep that along side the RS4. Only sold the B5 as I was having trouble getting parts and I like to use my cars as much as possible. Hi Lynchy. I ended up getting an op...

Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

Morning Andy, Sounds like you didnt have the best test Drive , with cars this balue and cars you have never driven ideally it is worth looking at a few or requesting an extended test drive. Likewise we used a roof box when ever we go away-take it off when we get there and try and store it, unless y...

Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

Try this, it's the original RS4 B9 booklet and option lists. Doesn't help with the B9.5 but that configurator is still online. https://file.io/e8Q6O0sxijyS Thanks for the link but unfortunately it says the file has been deleted. Yes I've been through the configurator for the 9.5. Very few options c...

Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

I had a B8 for 3 years and decided to go for a B9 late last year. No dramas yet! But tbh I won’t keep it without a comprehensive warranty as you well know there can always be a big bill around the corner. I got the tracking adjusted as it felt nervous at times but have done nothing else to it apart...

Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

I have a b9.5 carbon edition with C+S, sports exhaust (non DRC). I considered the Macan but the interior is quite squashed. I looked at the Sport Turismo but the boot isn’t large enough for my dog, plus the boot lip is significant so wouldn’t work. I also considered the M3 Touring but still haven’t...

Only sold it as i was offered great price. I am debating and probably going to order a new one very soon as i...

Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

Thanks Elchet 👍

The warranty, especially y2, is a bargain compared to Porsche!

So the screen in the prefacelift wasn't touchscreen?

I need to get to a dealer to sit in one and have a play

Re: Contemplating coming back to rs4 ownership

Thanks for all the replies. It doesn't sound like there are any major issues. May be best to find one without DRC...even with a warranty its still a ball ache. I'm trying to work out what was optional/ std on the different trims and the difference between pre face-lift and face-lift - different fron...
