Also note that compression test was carried out on all cylinders and results are as follows:

Just thought it might be of use to anyone contemplating the issue.

The 2003 Audi S4 Avant was taken of the road the day I noticed suspected chain rattle / clacking under light revs or load alongside can shaft position fault codes & has stood unused for a few months. I'm now trying to get to grips with the required repair but I am having a few issues where another's...

Oil warning light?

My S4 is displaying an oil warning symbol, when check function is performed it asks for me to check level. I have and its fine. The question i have is, if it were a pressure problem rather than level would I get a different warning & message via check button? Obviously I can just chick a new level s...

This will no doubt be very helpful to many...

Not sure if it's cropped up on here before but I stumbled across it whilst looking for info on my B6 S4

http://www.s4-mtm.com/images/RS4V8-StudyGuide.pdf

Seems like a valuable load of info which relates to nearly all the 4.2 V8's.

What's my Avant worth if I were to break it?

My B6 S4 Avant is very poorly! Engine failure, needs considerable cash throwing at it. So I'm weighing up my options to minimise my losses. My options as I see it are: Repair it (cost of approx 2.5k) Break it up (value unknown) It has the following spec: Manual transmission Full black leather Interi...

I've got a lot of work to do...

Jumped into the S4 (b6) to drive home from work this evening, at around 2,500 rpm I had a terrible rattle! Sounds like cam adjusters have worn beyond acceptable levels or a guide has let go. I also had cam shaft related fault codes present. So parked it back in the workshop and drove my courtesy car...

Is there an app to use this forum via iPhone?

When I was using the R32 forum it was forum runner, is there anything similar available for RS246 which makes it more iPhone friendly?

Re: Tyre replacement advice

Although the Continentals were nearing the end of their life I couldn't fault them but did produce a little more road noises ham the new Ps2's. Nice looking tyre too. Rated A for wet grip, C for fuel efficiency and 72db, Michelins have A for wet grip, E for fuel efficiency and 70db. Nicer to hear th...

Re: Tyre replacement advice

I have put a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2's on my wife's A3 TDI Sport 10k miles ago and agree that they are fantastic tyres. When I bought the S4 it had Continental sport contact 5's all round which had varying tread depths so I have now put Michelin PS2's on the front and moved the 2 remai...

Tyre replacement advice

Do all 4 tyres need to be replaced at once on the S4 B6? Or is there a tolerance, obviously with the differential in mind?
