Two leaking front shocks, only 371 bhp on the dyno, tyre pressure ECU faulty but sensors are all ok.

Did they say what caused the low bhp - hopefully a vacuum fault ? At least the other 2 should be easy to resolve assuming the DRC is still covered by Audi.

Carbon build up was Doug's answer......

He recommended a full clean which is ten hours labour.

371 isnt bad to be honest,my car made that with a milltek and sports cats on before i had all the tuning work done to get it up to 460

wheres Aurthur !!

370-380 is pretty standard for what these pull on a dyno ... so i'd say its healthy

Doug said it was a bit on the low side, the torque is good just the peak power is down, the range mentioned to me was 390 - 370.

Rather than a Milly and remap he recommended the cleaning route, I was going to buy Steve 70 100 cell down pipes but was told not to bother until the engine was cleaned.

As MRC are held in high regard and it is all still rather new to me I took their advice.

You going to get it cleaned then PaulRS4?

I don't think there is much choice, I am speaking to Audi re the other items and will see what they are prepared to do first.

whats your mileage ?

10hrs at c.£70 an hour is expensive for 40hp esp when the carbon will only come back

21,000

im at 25k

perhaps we need to meet up and have a drag race ...

Kent meet it is then.

After how many miles will this problem happen again ?

Im curious to see what the estimates are here for the return on the Carbon RS4 killer!
