Nope.

Give it a rest and find something more constructive to do. RS4V8, take a sip of the medicine you were suggesting to Arthur. Between you and Sims the two of you have managed to isult not only Arthur but myself and PetroDave in either comments that are derisory or condascending in this thread.

It is apparent that Arthur is passionate to the point that bating him inflames him and that is obvious yet the two of you continue to do it. And yes Arthur needs to take a step away from the PC now and again but he is not the only protagonist. And it appears that from the commetns of others who have come into this thread that they appear to share a similar opinion.

And RS4V8 why do you care anyway? You're buying a GT-R so sell up, get in your new car and be happy.
P_G not going there with you my friend. Scaghead pulled me up the other day and I told (promised) him I'm not getting involved anymore. (Sorry scaggers - that didn't last very long did it?!) I was worse for wear when I wrote that last one. For that and that alone I apologise - to everyone. It seems you're not doing much to calm the situation yourself. I do have a few things I could say to you in response but I'm choosing to stay schtum on this occasion.

Yes I bought a GT-R. Very much looking forward to it.

Someone please stop this thread!!!!

Of course it for the Mods, but it seems people have laid their stalls out and the discussion can now evolve more calmly.

Sims; I find your behaviour against the conduct of the rules of this Website.

Your comments are both harmful and harrassing with objectionable threads which lead to abusive and vulgar behaviour.

I do not read anything you ever post. But after 3 million threads here, I thought I would take a look and see what this is all about. I find again that you are causing trouble with your defamatory posts.

Would you please take your behaviour elsewhere.

Thankyou.

Thank you for your suggestions & comments, but really you should read & understand before your comment.

Nice holiday in June?

And so it continues so why not both get it off your chests since you have in terms of number of posts in this thread monopolised it. Better still, if you have a grievance about what I have posted, PM me about it.

I thought you would have read the Euro Tour thread Sims, why ask again? And why edit from 'Nice holiday with P_G?' to 'Nice holiday in June?' Were you hoping that no one was looking to see you post and then edit that?

The edits were purely to add text to clarify my suggestion just in case it could be misconstrued in any way.

I was suggesting that you were trying to be diplomatic by editing it twice. Maybe that's not what you meant. Either way it doesn't put me up nor down.

there would be a HUGE difference in the calculation and the results...

it's not a matter of proportions, it's non-linear...

Audi differs... (actually KYB and KW)
initial charge 16 bar
NO GO 12 bar
that's 25%

^Qwerty^ wrote: I never said there was no difference between 200PSi, 14PSi, or 14Bar. What I did say was that the pressure figure would make very little difference to the calculation. There lies a vast difference between what I wrote, and what you thought I had written.

If the compression ratio of oil is less than ~0.5% for every 1000PSi, I'm happy to stand on my statement that you don't need to loose very much oil for the pressure in DRC to drop to the point that it starts knocking/failing.

I argue for the sake of 'fact'
what do you 'argue' for?

the only injustice here is your ranting/baiting/mis-truths...see Mac's post above...

you never contribute ANYTHING other than trouble..

Sims wrote: ^Qwerty^, as you say there is a vast difference but not just on the example you cite, but on nearly everything.

In the UK, we have so much experience with DRC failure. It's annoying, but it's getting fixed. It's not wear and tear by any stretch of imagination, & Audi UK has been pro-active. :thumbs:

In the US, they also have DRC failure and their forums too have been busy on this subject. Just one thread.
http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthrea ... drc-recall
The subject of this thread is the acknowledgement by Audi USA, bit late some will say but at least they are not in denial.

Last man standing? Art is arguing for the sake of doing so, some will say he is being stubborn. But he will be won over when/if it affects him. In the meantime, his denials etc do a disservice to this forum where so many are affected.

I wish to keep the DRC on my car, and sincerely hope that a permanent fix is available - we are closer to it than we were 2 years ago for this forum was not in denial then. The C6 RS6 DRC seems robust, and the RS5 also offers DRC, I take that as a positive for the solution for the RS4.

I can't believe a guy like P_G has to explain/justify his edits!!!!
this is waaaaay out of control
some of you have made this place downright hostile and unpleasant

is it so hard to be happy? just wake up and say 'today I will be happy, I'm vertical and breathing'
honestly there are some miserable cusses on here
they are unhappy with their 'car' (car = eupheism for existence) so they try to share the pain...

for those who say to 'google' me, do it...read the +/-, and you'll find a null...but some of you will be deficit in that balance...

for them, you need to do no more than look here, they've made it easy to see what they are made of...
