    Which pads 'n' discs?

    I considered upgrading my brakes to S6, but the lack of options and the high costs put me off. From what I could see Audi were the only option for a standard 400mm front disc, before big money on custom 2 piece bells and discs. Would be interested if you find a lower cost option than Audi.

    New a6 flat bottom steering wheel fit

    I did the retro fit using an S5 FBW and airbag. Whilst the S5 airbag/controls harness plugs in to the column, Not all the steering wheel functions worked. I had to check the pin-outs between the S5 connector end and airbag/ controls and the A6 connector end and airbag/ controls - IIRC there were...

    The engine is coming out....

    I've only heard it badly a couple of times on start up, the majority of cold starts are fine, so difficult to record the noise Im afraid. For me, it's more common and noticible going down a narrow road/ against a wall etc at 15-20 mph and then accelerating - it's a rattly noise, louder but not...

    The engine is coming out....

    With the warm weather we've had, I've started my 2015 272 a few times with the windows down and heard a slightly disconcerting rattle. Not only on start up, but also under acceleration at low speeds, but did wonder if it was just standard diesel rattle, as my previous 3.0tdi was mapped. Did bug...

    Exhausts A6 Allroad FL

    Milltek did just that on my last A4 3.0tdi, muted at motorway speeds, but sounded awesome on hard acceleration. Would highly recommend.

    S6 V8T wing badge position

    Thanks for the comments. Thats interesting, I thought they were standard and the dealer removed if a delete was specified. Even if dealer fitted, I would have thought there would have been a template for the workshop to ensure consistency. I'll just have to guage it from various images then...

    S6 V8T wing badge position

    Hi, I'm looking to apply some V6T badges to the wings of my 3.0 TDI (I feel they're appropriate), but being similar to the V8T badges on the S6, I wanted to ensure that I get these in the same position. If anyone with the factory V8T badges on their S6 could advise the distance from the rear...

    New discs and pads for 2015 C7 3.0tdi 272 PS

    Just changed the front and rear discs & pads on my 2015 facelift 272 s-line as the OP - I couldn't wait to get rid of the dust producing items that it came with. The front pads turned out to be Brembo OE and the rears were Bosch aftermarket. On my previous B8 A4 I had EBC red stuff pads all...

    A6 Avant Black Edition Gloss Black Wheels

    Hi, Sorry for the delay. Needed to do discs and pads too, so just been waiting for them to arrive and do the wheel swap at the same time. These are the A7 wheels so 9.0J x 20 and ET37 so sit out a furthe 12mm with no spacers needed. Pleased with the look, although 21 would have been nice if I...

    A6 Avant Black Edition Gloss Black Wheels

    I've not seen any Black Editions with gloss black wheels, the 20" always seem to be Titanium or Silver.... gloss black only seams to be an option on the RS6 21"s. I'm looking to have my 20"s painted gloss black and diamond cut, so I'll post some pictures up on my Daytona grey Black Edition when...

    Audi B8 Retrofit Front Facelift

    Hi, thread title just caught my eye and wondered if you could confirm if the front wings are the same on early and facelift cars? In need of a couple for an early B8 due to the "usual" lower rear chipping, but would certainly open my search up if facelift wings (with the additional protection...

    ISOFIX cover

    I could give a couple a good home.... hopefully they would stop the wife from trying to push the seatbelt into the isofix points!!

    Facelift Chrome Knobs/Controls

    Its genuine carbon - I did have the brushed alloy which was fine, but the silver painted instrument surround I felt lowered the tone and had to go. Matt at oCarbon does an exchange, taking the old trim laying the carbon fabric and then resin - not a cheep option, but for me really lifts the...

    Facelift Chrome Knobs/Controls

    They might not have the knurled edges, but I don't think you'll be disappointed. They still create the same look and a much easier option. These are mine fitted: . The matching RS5 ali switchgear was a little more costly, although I just swapped the switches and then sold the MMI unit with my...

    What is the maximum Disc size you use for front Disc A4 3.0 TDI?

    I've done the same as Karl (above) but found the rear caliper was not the same. I had to swap the rear caliper as well as the carrier, as the S4 rear discs are vented and the original rear discs on my 2008 3.0tdi were solid, so the rear calipers didn't quite have the width to accomodate the S4...

    Supercharged badges on the wings or not?

    Many thanks for that, much appreciated! Ian

    Supercharged badges on the wings or not?

    A little off topic, but slightly related, and looks as good as any place to ask... could anyone with the existing V6T wing badges give me the dimension between top edge of lettering to lower edge of swage line and also the rear edge of wing to outer most edge of the V (or T depending on side) -...

    Sline splitter

    Might be worth a go... just like genuine mudflaps don't fit an S-Line... yes they do, Audi just wont recommend them as they don't want to be responsible for clearance issues on the lowered suspension, but physically they fit. I can only see the middle picture above, but that's an s-line bumper...
