    B9.5 S4 New owner. Question on the steering wheel * button

    Thanks Fozzie, that's such a shame! I wonder why? The short cut buttons in BMW's are a much better solution I think... Oh well!

    B9.5 S4 New owner. Question on the steering wheel * button

    Hi guys I recently picked up a rather lovely B9.5 S4 TDi. I had a B8 S4 Avant for a few months, which was an awesome car, but I wanted to get back into something more modern with a diesel engine. One small frustration I have is the options for the * button on the steering wheel. When I hold...

    Audi S4 Acceleration Bogging down

    Hi Dippy The best way to describe it is when the gear change happens, the revs drop to pick up the higher gear and the car looses a lot of power, like it bogs down.

    Audi S4 Acceleration Bogging down

    Hi guys I have a bit of an odd one. My 2010 S4 (remapped) bogs down under partial acceleration when changing gear at around 4500-5000rpm. It happens in all gears. Basically, when accelerating at around 50-70% throttle, if the gearbox changes up early, it's like the car bogs down quite badly...

    DAB & Bluetooth dongle

    Hi I use an Airdual Bluetooth 5.0 MMi adapter. It is 99% perfect. It only very rarely looses signal and you have to reset the paring with the phone.

    B8 Steering wheel wiring help needed

    Ok, just talking to myself here, but I'll carry on. The ebay vendor just messaged me to say the airbag is the wrong one, and they are going to send the correct type.... Looks like I will have to wait to fit it next week now. I'll report back to myself once it's all done!

    B8 Steering wheel wiring help needed

    Ok, so I think I am clear on the green and orange wires. The connectors look the same etc so they should be easy enough. The black wire I believe is an earth? And there is an earth terminal on the new wheel. It's the blue one I am stumped on. Is it the horn button? If so, then I think it's all...

    B8 Steering wheel wiring help needed

    Hi guys I am installing a new wheel in my car. It is a similar age wheel that has been modified. The replacement wheel has been sent with an airbag, but it has no wires. The ebay vendor told me to swap over the wires, but he has not told me about the smaller wires in the photo. I think the...

    New B8 S4 Avant owner. Some questions & photos

    Thanks Interesting perspective on the slow speed vibration. That could explain it. I'll have to take one of the calipers off and have a look. Yeah, I think new discs and pads is a good idea. I did wonder if it could be a coil. It's more of a wobble than a miss though. No worries about...

    New B8 S4 Avant owner. Some questions & photos

    Hi everyone I have recently bought a 2010 S4 Avant. It is quite a basic spec, but is in nice condition, and has been well looked after. So far I have done the air box mod and added and Airdual MMI bluetooth attachment (which works really well). I have some questions about some improvements...

    Hello. B8 S4

    Hi all Thought I would say a quick hello. I have recently picked up a nice 2010 S4 Avant. The spec is quite basic, but the car is in nice condition and has been well looked after. As it happens, I was an active member of this forum 6+ years ago. I had an A3 2.0tdi that I modified. Loved...

    Colour Change C@ck-up. What should I do?

    Thanks for the responses. Does anyone know what the no cost paint colours will be on the facelift?

    Colour Change C@ck-up. What should I do?

    I will have to see if the rv is 1000 more. If so it might not be more expensive.... Original order was white with black leather. I wanted to change to black with black alcantara....

    How confident are you in your S-Tronic?

    Have you seen many faults at the dealership you worked at?.... I would have thought it will be more than OK for the long run, so long as it is maintained properly...
