Hi much was the Audi extended warranty as a matter of interest?
Depends on a variety of factors, age and mileage, cover, excess, etc

Last time checked it was about £1.4k for a 3 year old car with 15k and no excess with full cover.

Re: Shall I sell??

WBAC price is higher than estimate from Motorway. It is in fact higher than a price I was offered back in October. My head says sell it by my heart says keep it….. Then I look outside and realise it hasn’t moved for a week. I should sell it. That’s what it is, an estimate. I’ve used it twice and th...

Re: RS4 Sports Exhaust

Could be worse, Audi replace the exhaust under warranty but then deny scratching the bodywork when you collect the car. :thumbsdown:

Re: RS4 Sports Exhaust

mine going in next week for sticking / squeaking valves. I'll see what they say (car under approved used warranty) That’s a straight warranty claim as there’s a TPI on them. Get them to order the silencers first before you drop your car off. There were both left and right as showing available last ...

Re: RS4 Sports Exhaust

My car is a 2018 model which is the ‘early’ exhaust, they’re fitting the later exhaust which apparently solves the issue. I was advised that replacing like for like just means kicking the can down the road as the valves will corrode again. Can you share how someone can tell if a car has the early o...

Re: RS4 Sports Exhaust

The valve spindals were corroded when I purchased the car which was 9 months old with 6000 miles. Both rear boxes replaced under warranty and now I spray them with ACF 50 each time I wash the car and grease the underside to stop it from happening again. I guess it’s a weakness and condensation from...

Re: Thoughts on Tour Pack?

I held out as I had ACC on my Golf R estate and missed it when I bought a B8 RS4.

It’s a pretty rare option, it took me months to find a car with it but I was pretty flexible with everything else. Well worth the wait.

Re: Range on a full tank

I did a reasonable amount of driving to sites around the country, and mostly in traffic, so set the cruise and just went with the flow. Best I got was 330 miles but it was incredibly dull.

Re: How many bicycles fit on the roof rack of a B9 RS4?

Roof bar description states;

The maximum permissible total weight of 90 kg for the carrier, attachments and load must not be exceeded.

So I guess you’re not limited by quantum, more by mass.

Service intervals

I’m currently looking to replace my B8 RS4 with a B9.

Does anyone have a link to a comprehensive service schedule which notes when the transmission lubricants need to be changed?

CarPlay - has anyone fitted this?

I've recently bought a 2014 and am missing the functionality of CarPlay.

Has anyone fitted this to their RS4?

Re: What's wrong with this car?

Good, that answers that. Just been to Edinburgh Audi - they have a 2015 S4 for sale for more money :-) Hadn't realised S4 and RS4 out of production since July. S4 isn't coming back - at least as a petrol. RS4 expected, but specialist salesman said it'll be the last ever. Whether he is right...........
