Probably more accessible than a saloon because the whole rear clam lifts away.

You need to get out more :biggrin3:

Awesome motor! Maybe the running temp is low/fan kick in to prevent it over heating, as I'd imagine on full song around a track it would generate quite a lot of heat ............

Haven't a clue, but my S3 is bang on 90 degrees every day, all day! Does it have the RS4 instruments? I 'think' they are designed to be at running temp when the needle is vertical, but I have no idea and have never been in one ;)

The Audi gauges have a fudge factor to keep the gauge steady even when the actual temp is fluctuating

That's beautiful.

No place for a twitchy right foot, I suspect. Take it easy.
