Re: Rear Brake discs

Last time I looked Audi wanted £650 each for the rears. I noticed that Autodoc have bumped the price up quite a bit for one of the sides since I ordered from from 350 to 428

Rear Brake discs

Hi, not sure if anyone else has noticed but there seems to be a new batch of rear brake discs available for the B7 RS4. I jumped on to Autodoc to get something else and they have them in stock. Have ordered a set so am waiting to see if they actually turn up

Hi, looking for an adaptive headlight for my RS4 B7, had to replace the passenger side a while ago and now the drivers side is starting to go hazy. Looking for the pre-facelift version with the yellow indicators

Re: Sad day

Mine was worse than that when a wall fell on it, insurance thought it was an A4 so tried to write it off, I had to speak to one of the engineers who was looking at the pictures to get them to realise it was an RS4. Once they understood they agreed to the repair straight away

Re: Boot Lid Electronics Fail (no lights or central locking)

If it's just the boot I'd check the cable that goes from the body through the tubing and into the bootlid. I had a similar thing with my drivers door, the main power to the control box had broken after being opened and closed so many times. Was a pretty simple fix, just added a new 5cm bit of wire t...

Door trim adhesive

Hi, the exterior trim in the middle of my passenger door has started to come off. What's the best thing to use to stick it back on?
Thanks

Badge location

Hi, I have never had the Audi badge on the back to my cabrio, I think it had a new boot lid at some point after being rear ended before I got it. Does anyone have the measurements on how high above the number plate it's supposed to go? Now I've got a new one I want to make sure I put it in the right...

Re: Throttle body

DRC is fine, thanks for asking. I've also had new rear springs, because one broke, and all the bushings done as they were starting to perish. Unusual to hear about someone going back to DRC, why the change? I took it for the first proper run out on Friday after the carbon clean and it's a huge diffe...

Re: Throttle body

Got an update for this. The garage cleaned out the throttle body again and it now seems to be happy. They cleaned it as part of the carbon clean and calibrated it but there must have been some gunk in it somewhere that caused it to mess up. While researching throttle body suppliers I found out that ...

Throttle body

So, I put my car in for a service about 3 weeks ago and while it was in they did some paintwork, the alternator belt, a load of bushings, brake fluid change and a carbon clean. It's done 115k miles and this was the first carbon clean I know of and I've had the car 9 years. Went to pick the car up fr...

Re: Intermittent Starting Not the Same as Any Previous Posts!

Sounds like the starter to me. Mine did similar and was down to corroded wires on the terminal block.

Hi, I've used Audivwsc in north London for a few years now and they are great, really knowledgeable around the RS models and nice people to deal with
