    New Site Format - Well Done!

    I posted that I didn't like the monochrome look and effectively got flamed by an Admin. That sort of attitude is unacceptable IMHO - so I'm off. So long and thanks for all the fish.

    Asn New Mobile Look

    Dealing with negative comments with sarcasm rarely ends well either. OK, some specifics: 1) Marking a Forum as read now means scrolling right to the top of the page, clicking and waiting for a dialog box to appear and then clicking again on that - 2 clicks instead of one. 2) I'm not a fan of...

    New Site Format - Well Done!

    I wouldn't go that far, but I have to say I don't see any benefits from the change, in fact just the opposite.

    Asn New Mobile Look

    So you made the same mistake as M$ have done with Windows 8 - tried to have one look & feel for completely different platforms, which IMHO just doesn't work. I'm firmly with those who don't like the new look. I like change where it makes something better, but for me the things I do often are...

    DRC

    Audi UK only instigated the service campaign after sustained pressure and a letter writing campaign to the then MD of Audi UK from many members on rs246.com That resulted in a warranty extension for DRC to 5 years/75,000 miles, and a much "better" attitude to goodwill claims from Audi UK. I...

    CD Changer part number..

    Neither, you want the CD changer connector on the second one but the Quadlock connector from the first one.

    RNS-E update in S4 B6

    See Audi Radio/Navigation System (RNS-E) - Ross-Tech Wiki for the start screen coding. When you've changed the value in channel 18 you need to reboot the RNS-E (press and hold RADIO and SETUP).

    Few questions from new owner

    OK, Bose wire tells the RNS-E to enable the Bose equalisation (and disable the front speaker amps). So disconnecting that will change the frequency response, but there's a non-destructive way to do it as well - just change the coding of the RNS-E from Bose (9) to linear (0) Audi...

    Help!!!! RS4 Battery Draining

    Bluetooth not working any more suggests a BT module problem, try popping the fuse to de-power it and see it that solves that problem and the battery drain.

    Rear passenger Cig Lighter socket.

    +1, never been an option for the A4.

    Few questions from new owner

    Cutting the earth wire sounds a seriously bad idea to me.

    Considering B7 RS4

    There's a great buyers sticky in the B7 RS4 forum on rs246.com

    Bi-xenon question, what does this bulb do?

    The switch controls whether or not the DRLs come on at all, if they do come on it's with the ignition not the light switch.

    Can dash warning symbol be removed?

    Pretty sure it can't be coded out. You need to get some proper LED bulbs that don't throw errors, try a member called Trups on rs246.com

    navagation data blocked

    So you need to post in the B8 forum, as the navigation system in the B8 is completely different to that in the B7.

    Audi Navigation System Plus RNS-E....Radio problems

    You need to post in the B8 Forum, the navigation system on the B8 is totally different to that on a B7.

    steering wheel upgrade ?

    The only posts I've ever seen from someone who did the single to dual stage conversion and subsequently had a crash showed the passenger airbag had deployed but the drivers one hadn't. Not much to go on with just one example, but it does illustrate the extra risk. So you have to ask yourself...

    Few questions from new owner

    What is the coding of both the BT module and the RNS-E? Sounds like you haven't coded the enhanced mode on the BT module to me. Bad guess, the B7 uses CAN diagnostics for the engine ECUs (there are two on the RS4 at addresses 1 and 11) and for other modules on the powertrain CAN like ABS and...
