S4 Newbie

Sounds fair to me. I get around 26 on a run and 17 round town. They are great to drive.
If you are worried about fuel though I would think about it before investing in conversion. Will you actually save more than you spend. Also what problems are introduced.

RS4 Insurance Result - Thanks Admiral Multi-car

Long story short. On my renewal couldn't get Admiral to quote reasonable prices for either car by discussing it with them. Ended up moving wife's car to Sheila's wheels and the S4 in insured by Admiral but as a new customer through a quote on comparethemarket.com which was two hundred pounds cheaper...

RS4 Insurance Result - Thanks Admiral Multi-car

I have Admiral Multicar
and just about to renew so will be looking around. I know they won't cover Remaps but will cover Chips which seems daft to me.

Sad as it is I have ordered a new S4 emblem. Has anyone got tips on removal of old one and fitting new?

Why would a dealer only change 4 plugs

I found out the owner had a mate at the dealer so I am now thinking he just didn't get charged for the other 4 plugs.

False Low Oil Warning on Long Journeys

Mixing tyre brands

My fronts are more worn than the rears so they will need replacing soon. As I want to move away from Continentals to Pirelli I want to put P zeros on the front now. Any reason why this is a bad idea?

Why would a dealer only change 4 plugs

Looking at my car history I can see that the plugs were changed at 44k and then at 80k. However at 80k the dealers paperwork only shows 4 plugs which I thought was unusual. What possible reason would there be to only change 4 out of 8?

Cheers

Re: Oil Choice S4 B6

Hi all I don’t think the guy was trying to make more money out of me or he would have sold me the Fuchs oil and kept quiet as it was much more expensive eh? So I think his intentions were honourable although possibly misguided. As I intend to change the oil regularly I will go with what I have bough...
