    Removed electronic dampers - dash light

    The old school way would be to wire in a resistor (I think). Similar thing when I had my WV Mk4 R32 when you wire a resistor into wiring in the boot when you do the flapper mod.

    First Wash of my B8 :)

    I've not had a problem with them and I think you will be OK if you give the car a really good wash and use plenty of lube while doing it - the ones I got say to soak them in bucket of warm water and shampoo before using but I am sure you can use a clay lube as well. I found that I get less...

    First Wash of my B8 :)

    Picked up my B8.5 a few weeks ago and finally got round to giving it a good wash. I always find it really interesting washing a car for the first time and discovering all little blemishes and defects in the paint. The list so far is: Buffer burn to a small part of the metal window trim on...

    S-line ride quality

    Well the stance is nice.... but I've never driven a 'premium' car that feels so unsettled on a bumpy road. Actually driven a few very cheap cars (e.g. Suzuki Swift!) that are leagues ahead of the B8.

    S-line ride quality

    Cheers I'll have a look into the B4's - I've had good experience of Bilstein before. I'm surprised how wrong Audi got it with S-line suspension!

    S-line ride quality

    Yeah I kind of thought that on just changing springs... I'd ideally like more refinement and some improvement in comfort. I was looking at Koni FSD kits but had a feeling they no longer do them for the B8?

    S-line ride quality

    It's got new(ish) PS4's on all corners. I should check the tyre pressure though as I've not done that yet... if the pressures are unequal I suppose it could be contributing.

    S-line ride quality

    Hello Picked up my B8.5 s-line last week. While I was expecting the ride to firm I was not prepared for how bad it was! I had it on a long drive this week 400 odd miles, this is regular or me and I do about 900 miles a month for work. On the motorway it was OK but over any road with a poor...

    Who's Running Aftermarket Wheels? (pics Please)

    Just took delivery of a tidy A4 s-line in 'old man' sliver. Car is bone stock but I'm already looking at wheels.... Would be good to see some pics if people are running aftermarket or resprayed OEM rims :)

    Custom cat back rasp under load

    Is it brand new? If so it will soot up pretty quickly and should mellow out a bit. 4 pots don't really tend to sound that nice though in my experience no matter what you do to them!
