Once I move off, the vibration goes away. The vibration used to be only noticeable from the clutch pedal but now the vibration is much...

RE050A - Bridgestone tire confusion

Pls help me here. What's the difference between RE050A vs RE050A Pole Position vs RE050A Extra Load?

Why can't they just give the tires a different name?

Exhaust tips - black sooty stains

My exhaust tips (lower part) is rather black and sooty. I clean it everytime but it turns black again after 700km . My car is 100% bone stock, and I use Shell V-power 98octane.

Is this normal? Are you folks experiencing the same problem as I am?

I recently tried Toyo Proxes T1-R on my S4 B5 and they were as good as MPS2, but much much cheaper.

They're very quiet and very sticky both in the wet & dry. It also has high treadwear rating 280.

These will def be my next set of tires. I can't wait to dump my factory fitted conti's on my RS4 B7.
