Thanks for your help, it looks like Molnboman is spot on thank you, when I checked last night by running the engine it was difficult to remove the oil cap and when I did air was sucked into the engine, new PCV on order, thanks for your help, Ken

Thanks A, I have to admit that the noise in this video is exactly the same I am convinced of it - audi engine noise.m4v - YouTube will take a look tonight and let you know, one thing why would it happen only when she is warm? Is the round black assembly the PCV valve? Thank you for the help...

Just a thought, if it was the turbo bearings would I expect to see a lot of smoke from the exhaust? any help would be appreciated

Hi Everyone, I have what sounds like a big problem which I think may be Turbo bearings, here are the symptoms - Everything fine when cold, engine idles and revs fine with no noises. When she gets warm I get a horrible screeching noise at idle and on the move when taking my foot off the gas...

Hi I owned a 2005 B6 S4 Cabriolet for 2 years and loved every minute of it, lovely car, fast and handles well, miss it. The only real issue with the V8 engine is cam chain follower failure, if you look around forums you will get lots of references to it. If the chain or followers fail its a big...

The car has developed a massive stutter this morning and the emission warning light has come on, doesnt sound too bad at tickover but anything else it sounds terrible. It may just be a coil pack but the last time I had one go on the S4 there was a distinctive burning smell Can anyone tell me...

Fantastic work Jim as always real pleasure to read and congratulations on the new premises, no stopping you now!

Amazing Jimmeh those 50/50 shots are possibly the biggest difference I have ever seen. What a sorry state of affairs for Rolls Royce, can you imagine if some of the old craftsmen who created Rolls in the past could see the condition that car reached its owner in You were worth your weight in...

Hi I have owned both, I dont care what anyone says about a highly tuned turbo engine I promise you nothing beets that feeling of power a big V8 gives you and the sound!!! only reason I now have the 2.0T is I was spending £80 a week on petrol as opposed to now around £50, if I could afford it I...

Doesnt help that they have left off the acoustic cover!, didnt even realise with all the frustration, I cannot believe that place after all that I have been through

I just went to listen to the engine again and realised they have left off the acoustic engine cover!, just didnt see it yesterday with all the frustration, I just cannot believe that £ucking place

Got the car back, engine is pretty much the same, the timing gear and fuel pump parts where supposedly inspected with no faults found but to be honest after my experience with appalling customer service at Shrewsbury Audi I have lost all confidence in them and suspect nothing was done, they...

Well I had my day with Shrewsbury Audi, went fully armed with pictures etc, went through the fact that I was unhappy with the exterior finish against the price I had paid for the vehicle, the fault with the clutch switch and alternator which should have been picked up during the PDI and the...

What year is the Western Europe disc? if its a 2009 or 2010 then the unit may not read an older disc, I am not completely sure about this but seem to remember reading it somewhere, something to do with a firmware update. Also doesnt the Western Europe disc cover the UK?

Thanks Jimmeh thats a great help, I think its because I like the look of the car that I decided to persevere with it. I think I would be happy with the wheel refurbs and a new tyre One more thing, you can see in the rear end shot that it looks like the muppet has sprayed the exhaust tips matt...

Hi All, This isnt really so much of a detailing thread more of a rant and request for advice, but it does show what can be done with the basic detailing kit. I bought this car from Shrewsbury Audi last week, part ex for my beautiful S4 which had to go. I paid what I think is top money for...

Hi Thanks everyone and apologies I should have done a search just panicking in the timescale I had Just got back from the dealers and they have finally agreed with me that there is a noise coming from the fuel pump housing, they have ordered a few parts and the car is going back in on the 6th...
