    B7 S4 Recaro Seats into A4 B7

    After several attempts at this myself, I think I need to admit defeat and find someone who knows what they are doing. If anyone has any recommendations for a good retrofitter in the Nottingham area please PM me.

    Battery recommendations…

    After completing a load more audio upgrades I have realised the drain on my aging Bosch S5 battery has become too much. It’s not holding charge anywhere near as well as it used to. Probably to be expected though as it’s 7+ years old now. I’ve been considering going with a AGM battery, possible...

    Aftermarket DSP

    Anyone running an aftermarket DSP in their car audio set up, I’d be interested to hear any recommendations. I’ve been considering Audison as I already have their speakers running a fully active set up. Quite like the idea of one of the Helix DSP/ Amps but they are mega money.

    Locking wheel nuts

    Since changing over to the Superturismo’s I’ve been without locking wheel bolts… I’ve seen plenty of cheap options on eBay but they all look a bit budget. Has anyone got any recommendations for something a little more premium?

    OBD Eleven options

    Bit of a newb question I know… but, which version is best? My little hand scanner isn’t cutting it so need to upgrade to something better. In the past when I’ve had any issues, I just nip over to see my mate who has VCDS. I like to be able to perform tasks like airbag light resets (as I’m...

    Tax…

    So the tax on the old wagon is going up to (near as makes no difference) £400 now :wtf: https://www.confused.com/car-insurance/guides/uk-car-tax-bands-explained?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter&utm_source=brandawareness&utm_term=20230403&utm_content=march2023newsletterslv1_012 I don’t...

    B7 S4 Recaro seats

    I’m pretty sure I already know the answer to this, just thought I’d double check and be 100%… The B7 S4 (saloon) Recaro seats are pretty much a direct fit into the B7 A4 Avant. The rear bench has to be split/ folding and not solid, is that correct?

    Dead battery now no power

    Hi folks, Long time no see, I’m hoping you lot might be able to shed some light on this... My wagons been tucked up in the garage for most of this year while I’ve been running around in the wife’s car. I’ve always kept the battery charged and started it regularly as you should. About three...

    Keith Flint - A true electronic punk

    Really sad news today that The Prodigy’s front man, Keith Flint, has sadly taken his own life. Aged only 49, today dance music and music as a whole has lost a true legend. The best front man of any band out there, he will truly be missed. As a child of the late 80’s, early 90’s I’ve followed...

    PR-1LA or PR-1LC... what’s the difference?

    Evening all, I’ve just been browsing the EBC website looking at various disc/ pad combinations and I’ve been presented with two options for my variant: PR-1LA or PR-1LC... I’ve never come across this before, is it something to do with facelift/ pre facelift? I’ve bought many parts for the old...

    Waxoyl

    Evening all, I’ve been toying with the idea of waxoyl’ing the underneath of my old A4. After having a good poke around when the car was on ramps a few weeks ago, it’s seems almost completely rust free and I’d like it to stay that way! Have any of you folks had this done? I’ve had an email...

    Changing wheel size

    Evening all, Apologies if this has been asked before. I’m about to change my standard 18” wheels for some 19”s. I have heard that I might need to change some settings with VCDS to keep the speedometer reading correctly? Cheers, Rob.

    Newbie with a project... A4 Avant B7 2.0 TFSI SLine SE quattro

    Hi all, New to the forum, come to think of it I've never used any forum before. I have owned my wagon for the last 2 years with the intention of keeping it fairly standard. That didn't last long! When searching for information and advice time and again Audi Sport Net comes up with great ideas...
