    Extreme Parking

    I understand the desire to protect your car but this was taking the p*ss IMO...

    S4 avant tyre pressure.

    Pretty sure the sticker on my S4 Avant doesn't go up to 20". Try this: http://www.tiresafety.com/images/Tire%20Replacement%20Manual.pdf The appendix at the end gives load capacities for different tyres/pressures. You can look up the load capacity for your factory tyres, then look up what...

    2015 B8 Gauge Sweep mod.

    I too saw this message for the first time when doing some minor mods yesterday. Clicked "no" and the new coding was applied fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Post pics of your B8 A4/S4...

    Another sub-forum jump for me. Having started off here in the B6 forum back in 2008, then moving to a B7, then over to an S5 for a couple of years, I'm soon to be back in a 4: picking this up on Sat: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sd Card music? how please?

    A playlist is literally just a list of files in text document with extension .m3u I have seen comments that you need to use various #EXTM3U and #EXTINF instructions but I didn't bother and it works fine. Just remember to use the actual path to the files, e.g. get rid of the C:\ (or whatever). I...

    AUDI-SPORT INSURANCE scheme with CHRIS KNOTT :: 0800 917 2274

    Not exactly, but after insuring my 2.0T A4 with Chris Knott for years, they were hugely uncompetitive when I asked them to quote for a 2 year old S5 (I am late 30s, no accidents, 10+ yrs NCB). I guess they just don't like "S" cars...

    Remap ideas to use from Preston area

    Sorry this is a bit late, but any reason you're not using ADS in Preston as they are a Revo approved dealer? Have considered them myself so would be keen to know!

    Hope the RS5 hasn't ruined things for me...

    Finally got the car back after nearly two weeks of it being with the dealer. Door rattles / window issues all sorted. Spent the weekend enjoying some of the Lancashire country roads :-D I can honestly say I'm not wishing I'd bought the RS. I think the bottom line is how much of a step up the S5...

    Hope the RS5 hasn't ruined things for me...

    I think I agree I'm curious, how much of the extra supercharger whine is the remap, and how much is down to the physical changes under the hood? I seem to recall warren_s5's review saying the Revo CAI was largely responsible for the extra noise. So I guess you could get a big chunk of the...

    Not major. Problem with drivers door / window mechanism. Just slow. Actually, it wasn't helped by the fact that I wanted the car last weekend to visit my brother, so insisted on taking it away and then bringing it back. So I guess I've interrupted their flow or something!

    Hope the RS5 hasn't ruined things for me...

    Remap is sweet.... but currently I'd settle for being able to drive it at all! Owned it for nearly 3 weeks, but driven it for a total of only 5 days :( It's back at the dealer's having some repair work done. To be fair, the issues are things I didn't spot before driving it away, and the dealer...

    GAP Insurance for A5 Sportback

    I can't *recommend* any as I have, thankfully, never needed to claim on it. But I am also looking at getting some so have done a bit of research. "car2cover" gets great reviews and is giving me the best quotes. The three types I am aware of are "Back to Invoice" - this would pay you the...

    Hope the RS5 hasn't ruined things for me...

    Yep - read @warren_S5 's and your reviews (I'm not good at remembering to "like" so just remedied that!) - really interesting to read. I'm not a massive modder - everything I have done though has come from reading about it on the forums! I remapped my old A4 and I might consider it on the S5...
