    RS5 B9 vs B9.5

    Having owned the 2019 B9 RS5 I loved how the throttle response was…. so…… well erm, responsive! In my RSQ3 this was the complete opposite, not just a bit but a couple of seconds before the car realised you wanted to floor it and was somewhat annoying. Yes you could drive around this but not...

    Well, we all knew the day was coming soon - especially with my track record! But whats next!? ........ ........ Well...... get ready for the let down! After going back and forth on various vehicles I’ve decided on a 2021 A5 Edition 1 35 TDI. With work travels once again and limited public...

    RSQ3 Service costs

    Happy new year all. Hope it was a good one despite restrictions! Considering I’ve owned my car all of 3 months my ‘change oil in 25 days’ notice has popped up. It’s not even a year old yet, only covered 3k miles so not sure what triggers this. Either way, Audi have quoted £330 for an oil...

    I happened to park next to this at the weekend and despite the wife thinking I was extremely sad, the colours were so vibrant I had to picture it!

    RSQ3 Matrix Headlights - Startup sequence/sweep

    Hi all, In a lot of online Audi videos with Matrix headlights; you see them unlock the car and the headlights do a little startup sequence sweep/dance or equivalent of a modern day knightrider........ but mine don’t!? Anyone know why?

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Auto SOS Fault

    Haha...... think this will be the quickest I've ever bought a car that needs to go back into the stealership! Less than 24 hours, driving home and this appears! Its booked in for next week. From what I've read online it appears to be an aerial issue, either loose connection which is a quick...

    RSQ3 RSQ3 Alloy Wheel and Dent Insurance

    I know this has probably been covered a number of times in the past, but as years go on prices and offerings change! What are peoples thoughts on this? A long time ago I purchased Audi alloy cover, £399 for 3yrs. I actually did claim once only to find the diamond cut alloys weren't covered...

    RSQ3 Kyalami Green RSQ3 - Coming soon

    Hey all, After getting rid of my 2019 RS5 and moving across to a BMW 330i I have to say after 3 months I'm back again! I'm not going to put the car down, BUT, personally its very boring, appears cheap in some areas (imo) and I just miss the Audi brand and quality. The intention was to move...

    S3 Order - But First.... Questions!

    Hi all, Hoping for some advice please? After a couple of months of back and forth with which Audi product to buy I have finally settled on the S3 Saloon. I did enquire into an RS3 at £45k - but for a 2018 it was circa £450 per month on top of a £10k deposit so as lovely as it may sound I have...

    Audi Alloy Protection/Insurance

    Hi, Just wondered if anyone has this, and more importantly if anyone has used it? I purchased this alloy cover as I understood it would be hard to repair diamond cut alloys - 5 arm rotor on the black edition, this was pretty much how it was sold to me and for piece of mind £300 wasn't bad for...

    Protection / Cover Advice

    Hi all, Just wanted some advice / opinions on car covers if you wouldn't mind? My expensive ornament (as my Mrs calls it) sits at home most of the time, purely because of the mileage I do so I bought another run around to stack the miles on. Being a very fussy owner I'm getting a bit fed up of...
