I renewed mine (extended warranty, not manufacturer's) on the S4 not long ago, got the price 30 days before but funnily enough it dropped even more a few days before expiry, so I'd say leave it until a couple of days before it expires to renew. Cost me £495 with £100 excess and 10k miles (though...

Hey, no worries. I never found it and ended up getting a roof rack for my bikes. If you manage to find something, let us all know to help others. Good luck!

No idea I'm afraid, I don't know what AB means

@Sandra this needs removing!

Seen it before but I nearly had a coronary when I saw their wireless cradle is £90! Also most of the holders seem to be model specific which is a pain if you change phone.

That's nice, I've got a CD slot holder in my father in law's Smart Roadster which works well there too. I've got a vent holder which has a strong clamp so holds quite well. Just changed the holder for one that electronically closes onto the phone. A little obtrusive but manageable. There are...

Yeah I miss the Clearmount one on my S3, fit so nicely! I'm using a vent one which has wireless charging, works OK but sometimes will drop. Would be interested in finding a neater solution

Very nice, enjoy! Be prepared for mpg to drop, I've never driven a diesel but came from S3 to S4 and it took quite a dive (25% at least)

I noticed my car is emitting white smoke on cold start this morning which disappears as soon as the 'boot up' sequence finishes (you can tell I'm no mechanic!) and revs down slightly. Hope that's normal!

I changed plugs pretty much as soon as I got the car (got my indy to do a bit of an overhaul just in case) and the car is showing intermittent fault logged by PCV so I'm fairly certain now it's the actual valve (that's what Audi said too). When my indy came to start working on replacing the...

What's the supercharger fluid?? Wondering if I should get it done too. Had water pump replaced last year so that's OK, debating whether to do thermostat. That's around £100 but I have Audi extended warranty with £100 excess so may leave it and put a claim in as/when/if it goes.

parts (valve and seals etc) are around £150 (they were coming out around £500 during lockdown!!) and Audi quoted me 5 hours labour so came out around £1200. Needless to say I'm doing it indie

I've got an S4 and coding dipping mirror on reverse to non-folding mirrors does the same thing (stays a bit lower than original position), must just be the way it is without the correct mirrors

Good to know, will get the mechanic to check it over whilst in for PCV valve replacement to make sure all is OK

Some good news... After months going backwards and forwards with RAC Warranty, they have agreed that as they categorically can't prove that the fault didn't exist when I bought the vehicle, they have agreed that their warranty will pay towards the replacement of the PCV valve, and they even gave...
