Yeah figured 410. Gonna get some new filters and a remap to see if that makes any difference but as long as everything is running right that's the main thing.

I think a lot of RR difference is in getting the car to the right condition to give the best figures.

432 after map and filters. Doug wants to have a look at the carbon build up as this car is higher mileage than others he has had in so heading back in a couple of weeks for a carbon clean. He mentioned they should be able to have a play with the S-tronic at that point as well. Car feels nice though really smooth and no hesitation.

Great service as always from the MRC guys.

Good news gaz, and for me! as your figures compared to Surrey rolling Rd makes mine out to be running ok
I guess you don't have any warranty left on the car?

No buddy. No warranty. It seems the b8 RS4 's make a little better on figures which is why Doug wants to get the manifold off and have a look at the carbon levels but I still prefer it to my old RS4 although it took a while for the RS5 to change my mind.

Yep it must have been before Bart and Lisa. I am the third owner of this one so hoping there is some carbon build up but all in all its running better now than when I took it in so very happy.

About £900. It will be interesting to see if there is any.

Dropped the car off this morning at MRC for a full carbon clean gearbox map tweak. Will post the results next weekend after I have picked it up.
