I'm not going to post this twice, and sorry for posting it in full on the other site, but the image upload was easier - I need the time today to get to the bodyshop and fill in forms.... My weekend outing: Take it easy out there people!

I am now thinking of de-catting my S4 downpipes to get the best from a 3" Cat-back milltek install to along with my upgraded (facelift) manifolds.. I have a spare set of downpipes that I can practise on - whats involved? Having chatted with Matt82 yesterday, we came to the conclusion that: a)...

Due to a change of heart and lack of time, I am looking to change my rattley exhaust manifolds the quickest way possible - with better, standard items. Therefore am looking to get a pair of good used, or even new facelift ones. Would even consider pre-facelift ones that I can seam weld before...

ok, so it looks like my rattly S4 manifold issue means the old girls heart has to come out again... I've kinda resigned myself to the task of taking the engine out and am now thinking that, if it has to come out, it would be nice to have something more than just the rattles fixed when it goes...

Help please! I am looking for some evidence of other S4's that have had this recall effected on their car - has anyone had done, or got evidence that work has been done to replace the exhaust manifolds on their S4? I believe that this applies to pre-facelift only, but I am not 100% on this. I...

Its ok, I'm not going to go over all the old ground again here, however, today one of the last few gripes and faults that my car has had ever since Siena "fixed" a list of problems was fixed... by my local non-affiliated garage / mechanic place that (sadly) I usually only give my works van and...

Saw these today, am still laughing out loud. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Audi-A2-A3-A4-A6-A8-S2-S3-S4-S6-S8-Brake-Caliper-Cover_W0QQitemZ220567531523QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item335ad97003 I particularly like the quote: Change your caliper cover now. Your CAR will...

The headlamps on my 98 S4 are getting on a bit; I'm having to polish the lenses regularly to get rid of the cloudyness on the plastic covers and at least one of the adjusters has seized.. Time to upgrade to the post-facelift methinks. I've looked before and there seem tobe a range of prices...

tried to PM you, but you is full apparently.. :thumbsup:

I am still trying to get my car back to how it used to be before Siena and others had a go at fixing things... One of my gripes is that, in the care of one of the "specialists", several of the plastic covers on the top of the engine were damaged (clips broken, covers cracked) and the far left...

Hi all, Just done a long drive in my 98 S4, from Lowestoft to Horsham (155 miles) - faultless. It was between -2 and 1 degree all the way, with snow and plenty of cold. My thermostat is (I am sure) dodgy as I rarely see it hit 90 and sometimes not move at all, but I keep an eye on it and the...

Whilst my car is off the road (thanks to Siena!) I thought i'd try and sort out some other minor issues that the car has. One of which is that, for the past few thousand miles I have had a creak from the base of the steering column. At least that is where it seems to be coming from. The car...

Hi all, Due to recent demise of a certain forum member who has gone missing with my dash clocks (amongst other people's belongings) I am trying to work out the best way to get back on the road. I have located a couple of options for a set of clocks (mine's a pre-facelift '98 S4), but am aware...

Hi, I have tried all the usual means, but am now getting desperate - has anyone heard or seen anything of Siena recently? He, of DeltaVAG? Reason is that I returned my dash cluster to him early December to be fixed under warranty, he duly notified me that it had been despatched to the...

Whilst I am fixing the other minor niggles in my car, thought I might get round to the classic stereo (head unit that is!) volume knob control problem that mine has been exhibiting for some time. I've had a good search through here and cant find any recommendations for repairers. The good old...

Hi All, Can anyone recommend a competent, not too expensive mechanic who I can totally trust to fix an oil leak on my S4 that is almost certainly going to mean having the engine out (again)? I am in Sussex, near Gatwick, no problem about travelling somewhere to get it done and in no mad rush to...

After much entertainment, I have completed the engine out -> turbo change -> engine back in job on my S4 - and it mostly went to plan! Best bit was that it started pretty much first click and, so far, so good with no leaks, bangs or rattles. However, the oil temp guage on startup whizzes over...

Help! I have a (well it was great!) S4 twin-turbo that has just covered 83000 miles (i've had it since 42k and turbos were replaced under wty at around 15k for some reason). Its been mildly remapped by MRC Tuning (great guys!) nearly 2 years ago (60k) and has run really well since. Just had it...
