Which Leather - Valcona, Silk, Pearlnap ?

On the 06 RS4 Bucket seats, which leather is correct.

Looking at arm rest..... I purchased a replacement from Audi, expensive, but doesnt look a great match, they assured me it was the correct part for my car.

Looking online, there are 3 leather choices, all Soul Black....

Dug out service book, i have code N5M.

What do the N5M-6E3 and N5M-6E7 options differentiate on the parts list above?

As you say your PR Codes should be in your Service Book ie:

PR Code: N5M = Leather seat covering

Doesn't give any more info - although googling might help further .. Mine has the Leather Wingbacks etc. and the codes I have are:

PR Code: Q4P = Sports front seats
PR Code: 2PX = Leather trimmed sports steering wheel

interestingly enough, I don't appear to have the N5M code (probably as I have the wingbacks?) , although i do have the matching leather armrest.

Probably advisable to input / decode all your PR Codes into the following Database, and see your Factory Options list:

Thanks.

My N5M code was up near the engine code on my Sticker, not with the other codes. Maybe yours is there?

I also have Q4P wing back seats.

huh. you're right .. i stand corrected!
not bundled with the other PR Codes .. I actually do have code:

N5M / QM

All I can deduce from the brochure is we both have Valcona black Leather:

Leather upholstery in black metallic ‘Valcona’ (Saloon and Avant only)
Leather upholstery in black ‘Silk Nappa’ (Cabriolet only)

i suspect the "+ 6E3 or 6E7" options could be add-ons .. such as phone prep or similar?
