    Saloon Steering Wheel Alcantara Wear

    Alcantara is a bad idea on steering wheels, especially in areas where the wheel is normal held. If it were me I would have it retrimmed in all leather. Royal Steering Wheels will do an excellent job.

    Facelift Pirelli Tyre Defects - Response

    Has anyone had their alignment checked at WIM in Chesham. WIM are experts and will be able to advise if there are any geometry issues on your cars. My guess is that Audi dealers are doing the alignments to the Audi spec but its wrong.

    RS Design Pack mats

    No I mean on the OP's mat the embroidery looks like it is on a panel that is then attached to the carpet whereas the photo I posted has the embroidery direct on the carpet.

    Anyone considered jumping ship to Porsche?

    This is why I don't buy new cars anymore. Let someone else have the hit on depreciation and buy something 5 years or more older that is either stable in value or increasing.

    Anyone considered jumping ship to Porsche?

    I hear what you are saying, i enjoy driving my S5 but when driving my Mercedes SL it feels much more of an occasion. The S5 beats the SL on performance and gadgets but the SL is just such a joy to sit in, despite being 10 years older.

    Anyone considered jumping ship to Porsche?

    Any Porsche will be in a different class to any Audi. I have often thought about getting a Cayman S or a 997 Carrera S and will surely have one in my garage in the future.

    Winter storage

    Personally i would inflate the tyres well above their normal psi to avoid flat spots and stand the tyres on carpet mats. Why are you storing it for winter, why not just use it.

    Audi tell me to go to the motor obudsman to complain about my brakes squeaking!

    I agree, life's too short to worry about such trivia when a simple pad change will make the problem go away.

    Turns out my car is 'Chipped' - not good.

    Do you have breakdown insurance? If so call them out! Worst case scenario is they can't fix it and will transport the car to a garage of your choosing.

    Servicing & PCP

    I think you will find that a signed contract is a signed contract.

    Servicing & PCP

    I think the point is that when you take out a PCP you sign a contract that states all servicing will only be carried out at Audi approved service centres. It's nothing to do with competition laws its all about contract law. Did you read the T's&C's before agreeing to them? Whatever anyone here...

    Servicing & PCP

    Using non approved Audi servicing will only add more cost when the time comes to hand the car back, if you part ex it then shouldn't be a problem.
