That' is the make. Long life. To be honest once i bought all the parts to make it drivable without your fillings falling out it would have been cheaper to order the scorpion no- drone exhaust.

Sorry to hear you are having the same troubles. I have unfortunately sold the car now so I cant provide photos. I can however confirm all the parts were long life items.

I haven't been on here for a while works been crazy. So V max update. Attended in July and was really impressed. Everyone really friendly and chatty. I hit 170mph on a couple of runs. Not bad considering the runway is only 2000m/1.2 miles. My 0-60 times I've been led to believe worked out at low...

Just to show how versatile the S4's are last pic up the alps in the snow on hols. This time post Vmax 200

Did anyone reply as to which fuses to pull. Does it affect anything day to day having them out?

As my avatar shows Mrs kids roof box to the alps averaged 30mpg. Best dad wagon for the money I reckon. Buy one then go to MRC.

Thanks CupraDine, do you know if there is a Tesco or Shell garage near the Barracks? Also 1.5k sounds short that's less than a mile I had assumed it would be longer?

I've booked to take my MRC stage 2 B8 S4 to a Vmax 200 event. Just wondered if anyone else on here had ever attended or know someone who has. Not sure what to expect from the event or my car.

Relatively new to quattro ownership. First trip into the alps and first time driving a quattro on snow. Winter wheels and tyres on and she was driving around locals struggling with chains. Took a couple of hours away from the family one morning to see what she would be like in the fresh powder...

Thanks for the quick response I believe the best Im going to buy on the pump in France is 98. I've been advised I shouldn't drop below 99 hence the octane booster. I cant be the first person to take a stage 2 car on their hols. Just wondered what other people do?

So the S4's been to MRC for the stage 2 magic. The family and I are planning a trip to the alps at Christmas. MRC advised I need an octane booster for dealing with the lower rated fuel in Europe. Just after some advice as to what people use. If they boost up from 95 to 99 or use their super...

Find the source dry it out. Put two open bags of charcoal on the seat. Charcoal absorbs smells hence charcoal filter for extracts.

Leak, damp carpet. Check under seats and in boot.

The car has been to another garage who were able to replicate the noise. They say its coming form the back of the gearbox and sounds as though something hasn't engaged properly. Can anyone shed any light on this before I spend a lot of money having the gearbox torn apart.

Ok so the car has been into my local indie. They cant find anything loose nor can they replicate the noise on the ramp. It will only do it under load in reverse at low revs. Any advice welcome as I'm starting to panic its gonna be a box out job!

Thanks for the reply. Can I ask how you came to this conclusion so I can check myself. Have you had it sorted?

So in short. Just had the S4 stage 2 work done. Car has developed a nasty rattle at low rpm in reverse. Box shifts and operates as normal. All advice welcome.

See below copied from my original post. Since posting this some months ago the exhaust has settled down to a nice meaty but not intrusive note. People are aware it has an after market exhaust but do not turn around when you travel past at normal speed. If you search exhaust drone now solved you...

I have a post relating to exhaust Drone on my B8 S4 with DSG. The standard system has Helmhotz resonators built into the back boxes. It also has more boxes than you would normally see to prevent drone. If you are unhappy with the Scorpion I would return it and rectify your original custom exhaust.

I have my B8 S4 booked in for stage 2 in a few weeks. I was looking to have it serviced prior to hitting the rollers. I was wondering if any of you are using an upgrade oil in these circumstances? I have heard Miller Nano CTS mentioned equally a few people seem to rave about 0/30 Mobil 1. The...
