Hi all, Question I have is as from which oil (or water?) temperature the radiator fan should still be working even after shutting down the engine? In the past I noticed that the fan would at times continue to run after stopping the engine but now it does not. The front sides (wheel fenders) get quit...

Hi all,

Anyone experience with faulty fuel injectors? What would be an appropriate interval for cleaning or replacing them?

Thanks!

Hi all, Maybe you have an idea for the following issue: Recently I have come across an engine which is difficult to start. It does crank, but the engine does not ignite. Only after a few turns it ignites, but a while back it did not ignite at all and the car was towed. The repair guys could not find...

Hi, I believe my car has never been cleaned for carbon deposits on the valve and inlet trajectory. It has now run 180,000+ km's Is it indeed high time to get the carbom removed? The car otherwise runs fine, but when buying it at 150k kms I may never have seen its original performance.... Thanks for ...

Am wondering about the following: by when is the engine warm enough to allow higher rev's?

The gauge on the dash shows the water temperature. There is no gauge for engine oil. Why not? Is water temperature a reliable enough indication for the engine oil temperature?

thanks...!

Hello, I need to fit a tow bar to my RS4 B8. Is there anyone with a tow bar installed with homologation? Also wondering: on the Westfalia tow hook website specifically the RS4 is not included. It mentions possible adjustments to the cooling system are necessary. Elsewhere I am reading about astonish...

Thanks both, indeed I now know now that standard is Xenon. Car is being repaired, mostly expensive replacement of bodyparts...

Hi,

Following a car accident I will replace both the head lights on a 2014/15 B8 RS4 Avant. Are there any other solutions available for the head lights, except the standard factory ones? I am thinking about installing Xenon or LED.

Many thanks Kees

Hi all, I am actively searching for a RS4 B8 and have come across a 140k km one. The owner told me that he experienced some issue with smoothness of gear shifiting and that the dealer upgraded the firmware. Problem solved. My question: is this a long term fix or will there actually be a costly hardw...
