    S5 Extended Warranty

    I got the price last night. Seems fairly reasonable for an Audi warranty after looking around elsewhere and reading other articles about the coverage.

    S5 Extended Warranty

    My new car warranty runs out on the 1st Sep and I was wondering if the official Audi warranty is worth the money? I got a price of £375 for full coverage with £25o excess

    VCDS or anything that can reset inspection/ allow parking brake changes

    Not sure about the inspection reset but you don't need to plug the car in to change the rear pads/disks. Just head to Youtube and search for Audi rear brake pad replacement. The process is the same for the B8/B9 and others. I did mine yesterday following a video guide without plugging the car in.

    S5 Spark Plugs

    My car has reached 40k miles which means that it needs a spark plug change according to Audi. The price is £360 which I think is a ridiculous price @ £60 a plug! Does this need doing? - are there any warranty implications if I change myself?

    Dent removal suggestions

    Somebody hit my passenger door on my S5 and left small dents in the door. The paint wasn't damaged but i can see the small dents from a mile away. Unsurprisingly no details were left. Can anyone recommend a paintless dent removal person in and around Ashby-de-la-Zouch (Le65) area?

    Airbags and couriers, what is the format ?

    I work in domestic and international shipping and I can confirm what @Bristle Hound says. You can get in a huge amount of trouble if you get caught shipping explosives and items containing explosive. If somebody ships undeclared dangerous goods and they cause an incident, the shipper responsible...

    Alloy thoughts?

    I have the upgraded alloys on mine, I specced them from new. Quite like them but the originals do look good with the red callipers. PM if you are selling them if you get a set of the originals as I am looking for a spare set to put winter tyres on.
