Did you get any further determining who is the OEM supplier of the control arms? I have 24k miles on my 2014 RS6 and have been advised that some of the bushes are starting to show signs of cracking. Changing them out seems straightforward enough (have done on wife’s Q5) so keen to save some money if...

I have LEDs so have no experience of changing the headlight lamp however this should help - ELSA win shows this for lamp replacement for C7.5 and C7 RS6s:

Plates are relatively easy to replace - on my stock (non-performance) 21” wheels I didnt even need to remove the wheels to do so. It was a matter of gently prying off the my remaining OEM plate - the fixing clips came out attached to my plate- otherwise it would have been easy to fish them out. I ha...

I managed to get 2 new rear decal plates and emblems - custom made: IMG_1169.jpeg Dave Williams used my remaining OEM as a pattern and fabricated the plates including the mounting pins (a first for him). The finish is truly top quality and really puts my OEM plate to shame. Best of all they are stai...

Sorry to hear all the problems you have had - hopefully you can hammer Audi and dealer down so this latest issue does not costing you anything. I always thought RS cars were designed to take a bit of a hammering now and again and not be as fragile as in your experience.

Got to be worth a try somewhere that does in situ cleaning….e.g. Rallytec? I would be pushing for Audi to contribute and then imo the dealer should foot the bill for the balance - after all they screwed up during the strainer replacement- not sure if your turbos disintegrated or just lost performanc...

Has anyone found a source for the decal plates? Some git has decided to deprive me of one of my plates - not sure when in the last month it was removed but unlikely to have been at my home as cars are covered by multiple cameras and i review all alerts daily! Hopefully this isn’t going to be a thing...

This is exactly where I got to.

Just had a look at disc prices on ebay from Cardiff Audi - nearly £1000 more expensive for the set than I paid last June - ridiculous !! I presume the Audi price for the doing the job has gone up in line with this.

There are many posts on the forum regarding pads/disc & oem/specialist, I decided to go oem discs and brembo pads. Based on advice in the posts I sourced as follows: Discs: Cardiff Audi - on ebay Front Pads: Simplycarparts - on ebay Rear Pads: Opie Oils I was reluctant to get stuff for my car from e...
