Re: Mugello Avant RK57 sold at Fontain
Fwiw, Fontain bought it off me for a good bit less then did the clutch/flywheel and maybe a couple of other bits.

Engine mount solenoid failure - causing a feeling like grumbly transmission?
hi all My UK 57-plate B7 RS4 Avant with 92k miles has developed what feels like a slight judder, and I figured it might be transmission related. It's most notable when the car is cold, and when at low revs but above idle (2-3k), on steady throttle or when engine braking, and it just gives a grumblin...

SOLD: 2010 S5 cabriolet, Sprint Blue, 90k miles, £10,450ono
It's time to part with Mrs D's lovely Sprint Blue S5 cabriolet, based near Reading/Wokingham in the UK. https://i.postimg.cc/TY27GRMm/FIMG-0860.jpg We bought it from Walton Audi at the end of March 2012 with a little under 8k mileage, and the car was registered 26th October 2010. Since then, it's be...

Aircon drain location
I've been planning to squirt some of the Wurth disinfectant (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wurth-089376410-Air-Conditioning-A-C-Disinfectant-Spray-Cleaner-300-mL-/111902087450?hash=item1a0de2591a:g:lQUAAOSwezVWvJt8) into my aircon as it smells a bit musty and kind-of damp. Ran the car today, jacked it u...

Re: power steering flush
I did this tonight - the old liquid was dark brown (car's on 69k and no idea if it's ever been changed), but it was outdoors so I didn't get much of a smell off it... Went into Trade Parts Specialists in Reading (they appear to be the parts supplier that all the VAG dealers use to source parts, as t...

Re: Audi service - do they remove the wheels?
an update... whilst looking through camera phone pictures, I discovered a photo taken in July - ie months after the offside front was replaced - showing that it was definitely a Toyo Proxes tyre then. So I think it was definitely a mix up at the Audi garage...

Re: Audi service - do they remove the wheels?
Yeah, I did wonder about that - but I wouldn't have let them put any old tyre on, and they did say they'd only have supplied what was on the invoice...

Re: Audi service - do they remove the wheels?
OK, an update - after several (unreturned) calls to the dealer, I managed to get put through to the service advisor from the last service, about 7 weeks ago. Their service records said the car had 4x Continental tyres on it (no, it should have had 4x Toyo Proxes). I said I wanted to get the locking ...

Re: Audi service - do they remove the wheels?
just double-checked the wheels and not only is the locking nut different on the OS F wheel, it's got a different brand of tyre too! Looks to me like they took the wheel off and got it mixed up with another owner's...

Audi service - do they remove the wheels?
My wife's S5 cab went in for a routine service in Oct, which included visual checks and they noted on the MOT that the front brake pads were getting low. Do they take the wheels off to check or would they measure through the spokes? Reason for asking is that at some point in the last 7 months, the l...
