My New Daytona Avant

[longman h]

Supposedly according to Audi anything above 900nm will adversely effect the box

ZF recommend only 600bhp for our boxes.

[longman h]

Mines been running mapped at nearly 1100nm for around a year now, its seen the nurburgring... a trip to france (leMans) and a thrashing round Oulton Park and Croft circuit, i have no issues at all.
Still smooth and precise.
I have had the fluid changed around 5000 miles ago mind, so will be doing the fluid again when i do another 10k... well thats if i dont end up doing silly things before then!

Tom, does yours shake at idle when cold?

[don0301]

Mines been 770ps and over 1100Nm for coming up to a year now with no problems.

Changed the gearbox oil and filter as a precaution when I bought the car 2 years ago.

No shake at idle when cold.

I only do 3-4k miles a year.

No that i am aware of, its all dependant what you think shake is? mine vibrates when on cold start but soon as that drops off its fine.... might be worth getting your codes scanned and see if you have an error for the engine mount? its a long shot but could be that? they are viscous and controlled via the ECU.

Gurj... thats normal, first year i had my RS i managed nearly 25k.... decided it was time for another car so this wasn't happening, the maintenance costs in those 25k have outweighed anything i've ever owned.
Brakes,
Tires,
Servicing x 4
Spark plugs

I mean all done myself but still not cheap! P>S sorry for being useless at helping you out the other day i'd broke my work car and was frantically hunting for fuses which took around 6hrs to actually find the cause.

[rtd]

not when your car has been off the road for 4 months of that time! LOL so 16k done in 6 months! no worries turns out no need to code car for ceramics makes jack difference!

So I'm thinking of selling the old girl to move into a C7 but I was hoping to get some feedback regarding price please?
It's at stage 2 with 71k on the clock and it's in great condition overall.
Can anyone suggest a rough ballpark?

I think more like £20k! ;o)
Did you ever get the cold idle sorted?

Ha.
I think it was just me being over analytical to be honest as I don't notice anything anymore.

Has it passed an MOT since the cat's been modified?

[longman h]

It's sailed through the last couple with the secondary cats removed.
