    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    Hi guys, Hopefully the noise comes through, it is a little hard to hear through the general background noise in the video, I wanted to show the revs in the video so it may not be the best direction for the mic. Far more noticeable in person. I second guessed myself and thought maybe wheel...

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    I suspect so yes, let me go out and try - if only for making sure I am not going mad! :-)

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    Cheers! It is nice to finally have her back and not making silly noises :-) I am left with one final noise, and for the life of me not sure whether it was there or not before all this work but the Audi mechanic who came out with me on the road test said it was normal and described the noise...

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    Hi all, Apologies it has been such a long time before updating this thread. I'll be honest she sat parked up on the driveway for 2 months, I just couldn't face or really afford at the time to keep throwing money at her chasing the problem and it was getting to me. Last Friday however she got...

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    I am hoping over the course of this coming week to get to the bottom of it. Time just ran out in the lead up to Christmas with everything else going on. I got slightly less optimistic that it was the flexi-pipes, as it seems on the B6 S4 there is a support bracket welded on the down pipe right...

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    Apologies, just re-watched the video and realise that although a good excuse to swap in the millteks if this is my issue, the more important thing is to make sure they are properly supported. It doesn't suggest the flexi's have so much failed more just got weak enough to let the exhaust rattle...

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    Guys, thank you for the replies and thoughts, I type this giddy with hope! :yahoo::yahoo: cobraBlack I completely agree it has been really hard not to be super cynical about the garage and I occasionally berate myself for continuing to take it back there. They treated my Golf well (2.8 v6...

    B6 S4 - Buzzing/Resonance between 2-3k, with odd symptoms :-(

    Hi all, It's been a 6 month costly roller-coaster of ownership so far, 2004 B6 S4, and this latest issue has me (and the garage) at a loss. I'm now pitching the heart against the mind to decide how much longer to really keep going before calling it a day and retiring her. A recent...

    Hello from Dorset - B6 S4

    Cheers for the welcome and kind words all, pleasure to be here :) I'll get some more pictures sorted when its had another polish and no doubt some thoughts on the difference the CATs and tune make when done but I will put those in the B6 chassis forum.

    Hello from Dorset - B6 S4

    Hi all, Seems about right I join and say hi now that I am the proud owner of a 2004 B6 S4, these forums were invaluable in the lead-up to purchase and then to calm some of my worries afterwards! If I've grasped the image upload process she should be below. Bought against many of my...
