I've had two complete replacement gearboxes. Both arrived within a few days of diagnosis. It took about 3 weeks to get my replacement mechatronic circuitboard.

My s4 is similar age and mileage; bumper and bonnet don't look as clean as yours though!

Did you respray the front end before paint correction and coating?

Thanks for the feedback, I had no idea that B&O without MMI used different options

I must admit I have always found the mid-bass a bit overblown with focus set to 'driver', but low end bass is ok to my taste. Remember you can use whatever bass/treble settings you prefer with this setup - the main intention is just to minimise DSP effects. Another option you might want to try...

If you get a chance to run the test tracks then please let me know how what happens. If Audi tweaked or improved the B&O system for the B8.5 then unfortunately my settings may not be optimal for you.

I wanted to share some audio settings for the B&O system that I believe provide a massive improvement in sound quality. They are intended to minimise DSP processing, giving the clearest and most balanced response with much improved stereo imaging. My aim was to achieve sound similar to a...

Try these: - steering column trim (upper side); press down on it when you hear the rattling. - fusebox cover (stuff a cloth inside temporarily to see if rattle disappears) - dashboard grommets at the bottom of windscreen (a nightmare to track down). Try stuffing a cloth between the windscreen...

Did they do anything else to refurb the box or was it just clutch pack replacement?

Razza can this adjustment method be used to make the gap equal on both sides? Dealer had my bumper off and now the RHS gap is 2mm larger.

Your dealership most likely doesn't realise either. It is not in my original 2011 service schedule. However, it has always been a listed item for north American s4's at 75k miles. At first when I showed my SA this he said audi does not recommend an interval in the UK. However after making...

Unfortunately, the TPI for mech circuit board related issues also includes some facelift models. From memory this is up to and including 2013 MY. If you have access to ELSAWIN you can look this up and see all the known issues for a given MY. Razza's advice is spot on. Having had two gearbox...

So Guildford audi are doing mine today for £159. I also found out that the uk recommended interval for the SC belt is 80k miles.

I'm waiting for a dealer quote at the moment. Where did you see the requirement for a change at 57k?

washed, clay bar and polish :) And the interior, featuring a few recent upgrades. Thanks to Mike ( @mjr901 ) for the great parts service! -S4 B8.5 shift knob -B8.5 pedal covers -ADS retrofit

Thanks for the comments guys. A bit of searching over on Audizine suggests 1-2 redline shifts can exhibit some variance in duration. I spent a few hours testing mine out last weekend and found that my car would almost always perform a very fast 1-2 shift when floored from a dig. However a...

It's a brand new gearbox. I've had two recently and both have behaved this way. I'd like to know if other cars are the same.

Guys, Anyone with an S4 B8/B8.5 sometimes experience a slow/hesitant 1-2 upshift, WOT at redline? For example when checking your 0-60 time, letting the car shift by itself in either M or S mode :) Mine seems to do this occasionally, but to be honest its not something I get a chance to test...

Yeah perhaps its not strictly a fair comparison but it's the closest xdrive 3 series model in terms of spec and base cost. I want AWD. The main reason I'm considering this car is because my company car scheme discounts on the 335d xdrive are huge.

I've managed to get hold of a 15 plate 335d xdrive for an extended test drive this weekend. After endless DSG woes i've been considering making the switch. Spec of this car: 335d Xdrive M Sport Saloon auto, pre-LCI Glacier Silver Adaptive M Sport suspension Interior comfort package + few other...
