    S5 or 440i Gran Coupe - opinions please

    S5 all the way. I was a bit like you. Couldn’t decide over the 440i or S5. The S5 stands out a lot more. BMW is very subtle you can only tell it’s a 440i by looking at the rear tailpipes whereas the S5 looks special. I went for the S5 in the end as like detailed below the 4 series is at end of...

    How did this guy get a heated steering wheel on a UK S5?

    There was an option for heated steering wheel when the S5 was launched. I ordered my S5 in March 2017 and the option was available. I opted for the flat bottom wheel. The heated steering wheel is only available as a standard wheel. AUDI keep on changing the specs available to order another...

    Why?

    I’ve now had my S5 sb for 3 months and I have loved it. Always looking for an excuse to drive it. 3 months on I only have 1 bug bear. I don’t know why Audi have done this. The plastic side skirt trim. I think thus looks poor. Got my car detailed and the plastic trim lets it down. I’m thinking of...

    Window malfunction S5 SB

    I had this issue a few times at the beginning. It seems that if you don’t fully close your door the window goes out of sync. There is a sensor underneath the door. The window will need to be reset. Every time I now make sure I properly close my door and it is working fine. Best thing to do if...
