RS4 B8 Front standard Brake Pads

Folks, I got a quote to change the font pads; £389 all inclusive with local Audi Garage. Just wondering if anyone got it done lower at Audi? Brake pad lights came on a few days ago. Also wondering, at what brake pad level do lights come on? 10% left on pad? Car has done 30k miles, first change to pa...

Just completed the oil service today in Ipswich. £299.40 in total. This cost included 9.7 litres of new shell oil, filter, washer, antifreeze, full inspection & test drive of car after new oil to make sure all is well. Car cleaned inside and out. It took them about 2 hours.

Re: RS4 B8 Service Cost, 26k miles

Even with 10 litres, filters, disposal, an hour labour? - over £300 is pretty high. Oil prices have come down. Wondering if the rate is similar for all Audi cars? I don't remember paying so much for my BMW 335d in the past. The Castrol edge 5w 30 (VW 504 00/ 507 00) is used by many models including ...

Re: RS4 2013 wheel arch body corrosion

Audi has agreed to fix it all under warrantee. :)
There are no audi mudflaps for S and RS4 models.

Could i use some sort of slim rubber seal? any ideas?

Next RS4 to have 2.9 TFSI 420hp, 9 speed s-tronic

"The nine-speed S-tronic transmission will be the only option on the next Audi RS 4, which will have a 2.9 TFSI powertrain with 420 hp."

That is a significant change. Speculation?

Re: RS4 2013 wheel arch body corrosion

It is a b8. I assumed metal as it had rust colour for one arch.
Is there an option to have some sort of small hard wearing guards similar to the ones in the front?

Re: Buying a new RS4- advice please

it will be nice if next RS4 b9 can do under 4 secs. Rather than waiting, perhaps it is better to go for RS6.

Re: Own a RS4, but don't drive it at the moment

It turned out to be the new tyres which were defective and had flat spots. Dealer tyres used to diagnose the problem also had flat spots. Unbelievable 3+ weeks of waiting and trying different changes. Got another set of new tyres (no cost to me) and everything is great now - car is smooth. Fantastic...

Re: Own a RS4, but don't drive it at the moment

Fuel consumption is secondary when it comes to a super car. :) Enjoy.
This could be the last Natually Aspriated RS4 with a v8. I think (my gut feeling) the next model next year could potentially be a v6 3.6 Turbo in the Porsche range under VW.

Still waiting to hear from Audi.
