DRC Knocking - how to explain it to Audi

Going to Audi West London in a few days to get it checked. Given the subtlety of the knocking I'm already picturing the potentially disappointing outcome - "we couldnt hear anything" "sounds normal" "my manager has an RS which does the same" etc... etc... Before i go, can anyone advise how to best d...

Re: DRC issues

Ha ha I’ve had it for the last couple of weeks, Over major bumps it feels solid but on roads with poor road surface I hear a faint noise from the rear like it’s something rattling in the boot like a cd, so emptied the book out and still hear it but not consistently. I now fear that I am trying to f...

Re: Squealing Brakes - RS Models

Have you tried the old accelerate+ brake method? Accelerate up to a decent speed Brake Do not let the car fully stop, as it slows right down -foot off the brake Accelerate away.

Squealing Brakes - RS Models

Brakes wont stop squealing on my RS4 B9.5. 1600miles in and been squealing since day one. Taken to dealer twice, had them deglaze under warranty but the squealing remains - they now say nothing can be done + apparently its a common issue on all RS models. Any other RS owners had this issue?

Re: Blue engine light when you turn on vehicle

Managed to find reference in the owners manual to the blue light. Top sections states not too strain the engine until normal operating temp has been reached ( which if define as 90-100 deg) however bottom section seems to imply that full performance can be reached once the blue light turns off. Appe...

My 2021 rs4 doesn't have this light in the manual. On the my audi app under literature, which manual do you have?
Does the light come up on yours? I haven’t found it in the manual either.

Re: Blue engine light when you turn on vehicle

Pre facelift B9 owner here, so no blue light. Out of curiosity, for the OP.. at roughly what oil temp have you noticed the blue light go off? Would be interested to see what point Audi thinks that the oil temp is sufficient. Like others have said.. I tend to wait until oil temp is at least 80 deg b...

Re: Blue engine light when you turn on vehicle

Where is this blue engine light? Any pics, pls. Possible change on the very latest cars? photo seems to be a Sept 2021 car (My 2018 car doesn't have any blue light) I think oil temp is more important (as has been said). Will upload a pic of it shortly, cant find one anywhere online. I figured it wa...
