I suspect the combined ignitor/ballast has failed on one of my dipped HID headlamps on my 1999 s4 with the single piece headlamp. The dip light failed on the drivers side, i swapped the bulbs with the passenger side (d2s bulbs) and still the drivers side is out. I have tried looking for the...

Hi Guys, can anyone tell me the correct rear toe setting for an S4? I have found -2mm (toe in) on one internet location. and +8' on another site, (i think that means 8 mins of a degree which is roughly equalvalent to roughly .08mm toe out). Any one know the correct setting? in mm if...

my 1999 s4 emits white smoke at high revs - say 4500+. If i drive easy, no smoke and no notoiceable water loss - fine for weeks and weeks. If i drive hard i get the white smoke at highrevs and over time the water drops. My investigation so far consists of undoing the throttle body and...

I had a thread on the VAG COM section trying to fix my alarm. It turned out to be the siren not the coding. I replaced the siren with a second hand unit. It is so quiet !! and from what I can gather these sirens fail a lot. I understand a normal siren can not be used and we need a digital...
