Re: First Audi RS6 C7

Hi Steve, My advice would be that the options really do make the difference. You'll likely pay more to have them but it'll be a more sorted car AND more importantly it'll make it easier to sell when it is time to move on. I'd find out what people recommend on the options list, work out your "must ha...

Re: No Cabin Heat from Heater Vents

New motor solved this.

Was charged 1.5 hours labour. It's a pig of a job.

Motor was about £200 though :(

Pleased to be warm again in the cabin!

Re: DRC making rubbing sound / carbon clean

Others may disagree, but the failure mode of the DRC is not normally squeaks. A failing DRC tends to knock. A "loose golf ball in the boot" is a commonly compared noise. Squeaks would suggest bushes more than shocks. Given it has another issue too, I'd get it to a reputable independent and have them...

Re: B7 RS4 - Wanted

How about a good used RS4, in any colour, then just wrap it?

Re: Noises driving me crazy!?

Is a noise linked to rotation or lateral movement? That should help narrow down the issue, i.e. rotor assembly Vs suspension

Re: Noises driving me crazy!?

I'm no expert on the C7 but would suggest some more info if you're expecting a helpful response.

Front/Back/Inside/Outside/Suspension/wheels/engine/seats etc etc

Re: At risk of starting another tyre debate

5S now out as well, or at least they are for the OEMs.

Won't be long until us mortals can get them I'm sure.

Re: No Cabin Heat from Heater Vents

It's the yellow armed stepper motor on the UK Drivers side.

Looks an absolute nightmare to get to :(

Any bright ideas as to how to tackle this?

Thank you,
Jamie

Re: No Cabin Heat from Heater Vents

I've removed the glove box and had a little look. I cannot seem to make the motor circled blue to move. But that may be because the car was not up to temp. What's concerned me a little, is the large important looking clip (circled in blue) which isn't attached to anything. any ideas? Could this be f...

Re: No Cabin Heat from Heater Vents

Oooh. This looks very interesting. Thank you. I'll keep that in mind.

Presumably your problem was not just when demisting, but any demand for heat in the cabin.

No Cabin Heat from Heater Vents

Hi all, After years of trouble free motoring, my B7 RS4 has developed an irritating problem. :x With the car up to temp and a demand for hot air in the cabin, there is no heat from the interior vents. Its cold, really cold (but I guess the ambient outside has been quite cold recently). I've tried al...
