Re: RS4 in UAE
No mate, the warranty and service pack is GCC wide, there was no issue with Al Naboodah working on the car, the fact that I had bought it via Ali & Sons was irrelevant. I just had a somewhat painful customer service experience fixing a niggle with the suspension in Dubai, poor communication primaril...

Re: RS4 in UAE
Hi Canfield, I'm in Dubai and had exactly the same dilemma. Couldn't face the wait of an order from Al Naboodah and after a very brief test drive in the demo at Ali & Sons I pulled the trigger on a car they had in stock back in November. They had 3 or 4 cars in stock then, identically spec'ed other ...

Re: Audi Service Standards- Region to Region
Unfortunately there is only one other dealer in the country, over 100 miles away, from which my car was originally sourced since they had a small number of high spec cars on order for delivery within a couple of weeks, as opposed to the 8month+ wait to factory order from the local dealer in question...

Audi Service Standards- Region to Region
Gents, This may be a bit of a rant more than anything else but I'm interested to hear your feedback on experiences with Audi Post Sales and Service around the world. I have to believe that Audi would expect a baseline of best practice from their dealers but unfortunately my relationship is rapidly d...

Re: Knocking suspension when cold
Glad to hear that it's finally sorted for you D8vil! Warthog, not just me then! I can only assume the issue is with the rear shocks then, not as noticeable in comfort other than maybe it's bouncier/softer than it really should be and squeaking like a busted mattress. But in Dynamic when the fronts a...

Re: Knocking suspension when cold
Wondering if it's the same thing but from day 1 my rear suspension has been "squeaking" rather than "knocking" in comfort mode when crawling over speed bumps and at v low speed. Frankly it sounds and feels as through the shocks are shot even though the car is less than 3 months old with less than 3k...

Re: Momentary power loss?
OK, strange, my car has been doing this as well from day 1, now 3 months in and about 3500kms on the clock and it's a regular but inconsistent occurrence when pulling from low revs. I'll ask the dealers and see what they say....

Re: Part number help - Left Hand Drive RS4 floor mats
I think Ali & Sons in Abu Dhabi quoted me about 4000AED for them, think I'll stick to the standard ones!

Run in period?
Hi guys, New the forum! I take delivery of my new toy next week. Having had experience of M cars in the past (sorry!) I had expected some kind of run in period when revs should be kept low or the engine is restricted for the first 1k or so before going in for a service and the beast is unleashed. My...

Re: It has arrived - Pictures after Gtechniq C1 and Exo V2
First post on the forum, great to see a few Dubai owners on here! Matt, love your car, congrats! Gareth D at Al Naboodah told me about your order a few months ago and I saw your immaculate B7 for sale on Dubizzle. I've been eying a new RS4 B8 since they were launched but couldn't bring myself to pul...
