S5 Tiptronic

Does anybody have any ideas when the Tiptronic version will be launched in the UK, because the main dealers dont seem to.

RE: Re: RE: Re: S4 Tyres 235/45/18 switch to 235/40/18 Any

Update on the Pirelli's - In my opinion they are better than worn Pirelli's as I was starting to notice the lack of grip from the pirelli's, they seemed to "warp" on high speed cornering. Either that or just "bounce" over a rough surface on sharp corners. I have much more confidence in the car in bo...

Got my new Michelin PS2's, 235/40/18 , £171.00ea at Costco and the difference over the Pirelli's is phenomenal!! They have more grip in the dry and the wet, but I just wonder if they will last as long, I guess we will see.

Thanks for your comments

Thanks everybody for the help. I enjoyed the video, the system looks quite useable, I have heard of it before, unfortunately it would mean me re-taking my test to drive a manual car. So I think I will wait and see what happens next year, and if they decide not to launch a tip/dsg version then I will...

RE: I wanna be in your gang!!

Thanks, will speak to Dialynx, bit jittery about warranties though. RS6, if I had known that there would be no tip/dsg with the RS4 I would have gone for an RS6 Plus. Need to buy new as aposed used, although I don't like Avants, prefer saloons, fussy bleeder!

Will let you know

I wanna be in your gang!!

I currently drive an S4 B6 4.2 and am very pleased with it but I would dearly love an RS4, the problem? I am a paraplegic and therefore need an automatic with hand control conversion, and Audi are not doing the RS4 with either a tiptronic or DSG box as yet. Does anybody have any idea if they plan to...

RE: Re: S4 Tyres 235/45/18 switch to 235/40/18 Any problems

Thanks Mike, I have checked out the link and am satisfied that I should be on 40's and have just ordered 4 Michelin PS2's from Costco at £170.95 each, including VAT and fitting. They will be fitted on Friday, so I hope the roads are dry as I fully intend to put them to the test! Lets hope I come acr...

S4 Tyres 235/45/18 switch to 235/40/18 Any problems?

I have a 2004 S4 which, given the car and the way I drive is ready for replacement tyres, especially at the front. Reading through the threads on here I have settled on Michelin PS2's. However, I am being told that they dont do them in a 45 profile only 40. What I would like to know from you guys is...
