    Has Anybody ever repaired the armrest ratcheting issue?

    Nice. In for a penny…..! Can you see if the teeth are rounded? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Has Anybody ever repaired the armrest ratcheting issue?

    No….I enlarged the existing round hole beside the washer but made sure it would still be covered by the cap….this provides enough ‘access space’ to file the racket teeth slightly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Has Anybody ever repaired the armrest ratcheting issue?

    Yes….I didn’t any further than sticking a triangular file in and honing the ratchet teeth though as I couldn’t / didn’t have time to get the holding washer off that’s in your picture. I ended up drilling a large hole (covered by the round cover) to gain better access. So far so good….it...

    Hibiscus Red TQS - New Car, New Project, cars been here before though.

    Yup same here in the S4. Tried the same as you and it mad a difference but still annoying. I’m hopefully going down the recaro PP route this year which by all accounts are a bit narrower width wise. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    As always, nice work Midas. I’ve got the same interior but it’s Recaro. Thanks for the interior dye colour tip, mine is needing some TLC! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Eibach B12 Kit for 1.8 TQS

    Give these guys a call and they’ll keep you right. I also recall something about the AC kit issue but either of these companies will tell you for sure. https://www.dcperformance.co.uk/uprated/bilstein-b12-pro-kit-suspension-kits.html Eddie @ WOT motorsport. https://www.wotmotorsport.com...

    S4 Full Leather Recaro Swap

    I fitted a TQS half leather recaro saloon interior into my avant with no issues on the fronts and just a tweak to the rear seats locking mechanism and pivot point. If yours is ‘like for like’ then it’s very very simple. More or less plug and play. I’ll try and find my thread on my install and...

    Hibiscus Red TQS - New Car, New Project, cars been here before though.

    Yes...the software can freely be downloaded but the cable is what costs. There are other generic systems which can read VCDS but they’re not as functional. Check out these guys for all the options...

    Hibiscus Red TQS - New Car, New Project, cars been here before though.

    Nice progress. Your rear diff is NOT a LSD as standard so unless a previous owner has installed one it’ll be the OEM open diff. Chasing ‘clunks’ in a 20+ year old car is unfortunately just a process of elimination. Do the easy things first, CV joints, bushes / mounts that can be accessed...

    So I’m In The Market For An Old Audi Avant!! In RS Form!!

    There will be split opinions here. From my perspective, the B5 sounds amazing and gives you the thrills when the boost arrives. The B7 is arguably more engaging in the handling department, sounds great but maybe doesn’t give you that ‘boost’ feeling. Both drink the petrol like no tomorrow, both...

    Reupholstery with OEM fabrics...recommendations?

    Can anyone point me in the direction of a reupholstery company who can source ‘Audi’ OEM fabrics. I’m specifically looking for a match on the cloth in my TQS half leather recaro interior. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    audi s4 b5 mixed oli help

    Eck.....worst case scenario it’s a head gasket. However, I once had this and all it turned out to be was the water cooled / oil cooler square box that sits behind the oil filter had burst inside thus causing a similar issue. Hope it’s an easy one for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
