    Black Edition wheels?

    Hi all. I’m about to buy a 2015> A7 Black Edition. I was under the impression that as standard equipment, they came with the Rotor 21” wheels. I’ve seen a few with 20” non Rotors, similar to the S-Line or S7 alloys… any ideas? One of the ones I’ve found locally, the dealer insists they’re the...

    H&R Spring length

    Hi all. After a lot if research, I have gone for a set of H&R 28826-2 springs for my S3. Went to fit one of the front ones today and the H&R is approx 40mm longer. My question; is this just because of the progressive nature of the H&R springs meaning it sits further into its travel giving you...

    A8 D3 Reception/heated screen issue

    Hi all. Got an issue with the sound system/heated screen on my 07 A8. General reception, be it FM or DAB isn't great where I live and drive to work, so this problem is most likely exaggerated. FM reception is fine on the BBC channels but anything local, there is always a faint staticy...

    The aluminium trim in my S4 is a quite scratched so I decided to attempt to re-finish one section by sanding them polishing. I practiced on a rear door but it doesn't look right. Originally, it has the fish scale effect and by rubbing down, this has been removed. Has anyone attemped...

    DIS Alignment

    Just sold my S-Line and bought a 2003 S4 saloon and it's great apart from one thing... The display in the centre of the instrument cluster seems to be a bit wonky. Has anyone else experienced this? I've done a search and haven't come up with anything. From what I've read, it doesn't seem...

    Remap Question

    Hi everyone. Just bought myself a A4 S Line Avant Quattro 190 and I'm looking to get it remapped. I've read loads of different posts but I'm confused as to what is the difference between a £250 remap which a local firm can do and £400-£500 for a AMD or Revo. They all claim similar power...

    S3 Xenon adjustments

    My 2001 S3's Xenons seem very low. On my previous B6 S4, you could actually see them leveling themselfs when you switch the ignition on. Should the S3 do this too? I know they are supposed to, but do they do more suttle adjustments. Does any one know how to manually adjust the aim...

    A4 Climate control problem

    Hi there chaps. The climate control on my 2003 S4 is playing up... The passenger side climate is stuck on hot. You can still change the temp reading but it doesn't change the temp of the air. It keeps fixing its self and then coming back. I'm thinking a flap must be stuck or something...
