    42L1 - A-Servicing rear axle¹

    I got same for my 2020 S4 so called Audi in Newbury who booked it in next day (today).What a difference back end feels connected and a touch softer and much more planted than before, It gave much more confidence on a back road as it feels more connected to the front.I wonder if there is more to...

    Another point as was said byFrizzley if you are close to a car in front it will switch off but also it is connected to the nav so if there is a moderate to sharp bend it will also switch off. The key to the S4 is coasting at the right times and leaving enough in the battery to avoid the...

    Calling all S4 TDI owners

    My S4 has just turned 3000 miles,the one I test drove was an avant black edition and it was ok but my saloon is chalk and cheese so much quicker to respond to small throttle inputs and more settled on the road. I am looking at a tune but due to the high temps of that engine the cooling is the...
