Have to agree with all the above- MRC are the guys to go for- have spent more than my fair share of time there over the last few weeks- and the car is now awesome. And ease off the Avus guys- I'm starting to get paranoid although its probably cos theres more Avus than any other out there! And as far as I know at least two of the MRC RS4's are putting out c.550bhp- so who's fastest now??Lol :P

the precats ,cat back,and remap is the best mods you will do to the car, ie power for pound. if i had my time again i wouldnt have gone any further but its a bit late now :biggrin2:

Hi there everyone,

thought I'd update everyone on my progress or lack of it... Firstly thanks to everyone for all of your help and suggestions.

Today I have been back in the car to see if it still not going in to gear, at first it would go in them all bar reverse then after going through all the gears it when into reverse fine (but a bit notchy). Now all gears seem normal, I have even been up and down the street in it through all gears without issue. Any further thoughts anyone???

Regards

Andy
