Re: RS4 B7 Sound Package ...

I just had the resonators chopped out of the standard exhaust, and replaced with an x pipe. Cost about 150 quid, and car sounds great now.

Re: DRC advice

Well, just checked the records - turns out it's near 3 years since the work was done, so probably on a hiding to nothing with Audi.

Any suggestions for specialists on the north west? I see unit 20 near Chester - does the general RS246 population rate em?

Cheers

DRC advice

Hi Forum, Had my car for about 2 years, purchased from Audi Bath with warranty. Just before I got it, Audi Bath changed 2 DRS bits. 2 weeks after I got the car, the other 2 bits went - and were replaced by Audi Manchester. This week, the dreaded knock has come from the front right (and corresponding...

FS - 2006 Black RS4 Saloon, SS+

Hi Forum, With much regret, it's time to sell my RS4. It's a lush car, but the RS4 isn't really the best car for a newborn baby! Anyways, the car is in great nick, utterly compelling to drive, and at least 2 of the previous owners are on, or were on this forum. I purchased the car from Bath Audi in ...

Re: FS - full set of EBC yellows for B7 RS4

Still for sale at the moment - the cheapest I can find these is 60 quid rear / 157 front (delivered). So far, have had offers of 140 all in, 170 all in, and 40 (rear) - and at that level I'd prefer to keep them for next year TBH (55 quid in petrol could get me round the EVO triangle at least once an...

Re: FS - full set of EBC yellows for B7 RS4

See no reason why not, no idea what the split was price wise, and I'm literally just leaving work. Drop me a mail with whats fair and we'll probably have a deal.

FS - full set of EBC yellows for B7 RS4

Hi Guys, Bought a full set of EBC yellow pads (with wear sensors etc), only to find that the existing pads were in great nick, and a stuck caliper was to blame. Have sorted the caliper, now have a full set of yellows (inc boxes, anti squal bits, sensors etc) - paid £225 last month, hoping to get som...

Re: RNS-E not reading disks

Thanks guys. I think he's on the original OEM disk, will ask him to check. Either way, nice to know it's fixable without having to buy a stolen RNS-E from ebay - no way any of us are funding thieving scum.

RNS-E not reading disks

Hi you lot,
My brother's RNS-e has decided not to play CD's any more. Are there any common fixes, or is it a new head unit?
I don't think he has a multichanger, it's the slot that has died.

The eternal brake pad question

Hi forum, I need rears, and (within 2 months) fronts too. I can get OEM's at 221+vat and rears at 68+vat, thats the default position. However, I can't help but feel there's quite a bit of Audi tax there - I used to pay less for a set of Pagid blues for a 993 GT2 (also twin pad). I'm not tracking the...

Re: Manchester/High Peak meet 4th December

10.30 at strines works for me, not been there yet, and the surrounding roads are awesome. Timin wise it also lets me meet up with a bunch of Lotus owners in the afternoon - they need to learn that nice as they are, the Elise's K series or toyota engines are 4 cylinders short of a soundtrack =)
