Re: Steering / suspension?
Cheers guys, I've been away since I posted this but I think I'm going to try and check the steering rack bolts at some point this weekend!

Steering / suspension?
Hi guys, I've been away with work since Sunday night so I haven't driven the car in a while. Tonight I thought I would take her for a little blast because it's been a few days and I immediately noticed a difference in the driving experience. The car seems to be what I can only describe as 'floating'...

Recommendations for badges
Hello chaps, I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend a good quality replacement front badge (the Audi rings)? I'm looking for either carbon fibre or just black. I was thinking of taking off the current badge and spraying it but I would like to have the option to be able to put everything back to ...

Re: Ted's B7 RS4 build thread
Thought I would post up some updates as it has been a little while. Not a lot has been going on, but I have started the process of wrapping the silver window and grille surrounds in carbon, which I am very pleased with. IMG_5898.JPG Now all I need to do it work out how to take the mirrors off so I c...

Re: RS4 bucket seats
Excellent, thanks guys. I'm not too far from Colchester either, I am based in Southend. I'll have to look them up!

RS4 bucket seats
Hi guys, I'm wondering if anyone can give me some advice on the seat bolsters (the bottom ones, not sure if this is the correct name for them) on an RS4? Mine are rather worn and the stitching has just bitten the bullet. Is it possible to get this repaired? I'm not over the moon that I now have a ho...

Re: Ted's B7 RS4 build thread
So yesterday I had the resonators taken out of the car. The low down noise is absolutely fantastic now, but I'm really not sold on the 'tinny' top end (this is the only way I can describe how it sounds). I was hoping for a louder version of just having the exhaust flaps stuck open. For now, it's abs...

Re: Ted's B7 RS4 build thread
So I managed to get a quick photo of the car with the tints in when I got home from work last night. The appointment with Pipecraft is at 3pm today so I will take some videos of the finished product - fingers crossed it sounds better! I have decided to go for 2 straight pipes rather than a X or H pi...

Re: Ted's B7 RS4 build thread
Hello chaps, It's been a while since I've posted on here. The car has now been sprayed, and the window tints have also been done. I will upload some photos of the finished article tonight (I didn't have time to clean her over the weekend and she is filthy). Tomorrow afternoon I am hitting up Pipecra...

RS4 front grille
Hi guys, I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend a front grille? I'm looking for a grille without the Audi rings, and all the ones on eBay seem to only fit A4's rather than RS4's. Does anyone have one of these without the rings? I took the rings off the boot and love the look so would like to do ...

Re: B7 RS4 Gearbox question
No mine is smooth but I try an oil change 1st or definitely go back to the dealer as this would be under your warranty how many miles it done? Hi mate, it's done 80,000 miles. I'll definitely be giving them a call ASAP and see what they say. It is smooth 90% of the time, it's just an occasional 'cl...

B7 RS4 Gearbox question
Hello All, I had my car serviced this week and my mechanic reckons that the synchromesh might be worn on my gearbox. Apparently it now is a bit of a gamble whether it will need work (I've only just bought the car), as the gearbox is 'clipping' between 1st and 2nd, but the 'clipping' is slight and ve...

Re: Ted's B7 RS4 build thread
Hello chaps, Just a little update, so I thought I wouldn't put this on my original post. The car was serviced yesterday with all new plugs, an oil change and just a bumper to bumper check - apparently everything is absolutely perfect, no leaks from the suspension (the shocks aren't even damp) but th...

Re: Ted's B7 RS4 build thread
Thanks Chaps,
I'll definitely be looking into the spacers then! Any recommendations as to where I should get them from? I looked on DemonTweeks and they only seem to do 10mm.
Simon, thanks for the advice - I'll definitely be looking into the meets and track days, that sounds awesome!
