I had a new clutches and new dmf and mechatronics within 3 weeks, but saying that they were waiting on parts from Germany and don't know how but they got the parts Friday lunchtime and car was ready to collect Monday morning and that's taking out and dismantling a whole gearbox?

That's quite funny! I was quite happy too at the start. Now I just have a feeling the only reason someone would sell their beloved S4 is if it had gearbox problems :p I hope you don't have problems with yours and should be fine.

Guess I'll take it to a mechanic then :sos:

I have this code coming up and is happening about once or twice a week but not enough to throw engine light. I know it's the evap system but there are many things that it could be, like purge valve or carbon canister breaking down? Has anyone had the same problem? Also on cold start up I can...

What gearbox is it?

If you select car in the menu on your mmi it has a menu for your drl's?

That he doesn't know that he's doing yet, well he might now if he reads this :p
