Well I have gone for the Porsche setup from AMD after my brake fade at CC really holding me up - they are being fitted on the 17th April...

Hi Dunc,

So that's why I couldn't get in to AMD on the 17th [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

Going on the 16th now.

Nothing too exciting I'm afraid (this time.... [img]images/graemlins/FIREdevil.gif[/img]).

Since getting the S4 I have always intended to have AMD check over the F and TBB hoses, DVs, look for leaks etc and have a general look around for problems and try to diagnose a front end clunk.

I'm also having a power run to make sure everything is as it should be.

I need new brakes very soon, but have other priorities for my cash at the moment, so I'm waiting to see if EBC disks become available as has been rumoured.

Will try not to come away with a chip!

Leave your wallet at home and just take the cash you need, it is soooo hard to resist the temptation [img]images/graemlins/spineyes.gif[/img]

I'm interested in hearing about your brakes, once bedded in.I like the look of the AP Racing ones as well, although they do not seem to be flavour of the month ??
I've got GmbH suspension on my S3 and very pleased , firm but with good bump compliance. I was very anxious as I did not want the rock hard ride there is on the A4 quattro T sport.Worth the money but not sure about aftermarket fitting at £700 + . I reckon that there are other options for that sort of money. Be happy for you to test at the next meeting.
