Mine does it occasionally too, just on the right hand bank, although not often enough that I could replicate it for the benefit of showing the dealer. Also brings on the management light, so here's hoping that a fault will be logged, just struggling to find the time to get to the dealer On another n...

In the boot. I have the same solution as you at the moment, so although not ideal, it is an improvement

Spare Wheel

Any body come up with a solution yet? I am seriously considering selling the car as I am not happy driving round with no solution should I get a puncture. I have been carrying a spare tyre on long trips, but this isn't ideal either. Would be a shame as I really like the car.

25bhp from a normally aspirated car? Are you sure?? I don't honestly think you would get more than 5 if you were lucky. Afterall a chip tuning company only really has igntion advance to play with, and I can't see a degree or two of advance producing 25bhp. From what I understood, years ago a normall...

Will go something like "M3 is better as you can't drive the RS4 sideways all the time, no steering feel, blah blah etc." Shame they don't time the two cars down an unfamiliar road in the dark, raining with cars coming the other way. I know what I'd rather be driving in real life conditions.

Yes thats right, my dealer called me a week or two after I had mine to say the spark plugs needed changing, so got it done. Don't know anymore details than this though I'm afraid, car still runs the same. I did hear from someone it was something to do with the car having problems if you started it a...
