    Recall - Replacing loudspeaker trim*70G6

    anyone else had this recall? It has shown up in the My Audi Portal app - assume its to stop rattles on the sub woofer cover or something. Not had a call from Audi about it.

    S5 or 440i Gran Coupe - opinions please

    Had a new 340i for a year before coming to the S5 sportback and the Audi is a better car IMO especially if your car options are the same cost. Bmw was much cheaper car in comparison when I have looked previously and that was a big plus in terms of getting a lot of car for the money with the BM...

    Flood water damage to my S5...

    Try not to drive it anymore and get it to Audi as mentioned above. Defo do that before calling insurance as they will just scare you! Audi will be able to drain it if needed and then do a pressure test on the cylinders etc to make sure no major damage. I had the same issue on a previous BMW...

    Be aware be safe

    Glad no one was hurt etc. Can you share what area you are in? P.s get some of these door locks if you haven’t already - ABS anti snap locks. https://www.abs-secure.co.uk/

    Anyone feel a bit "meh" with their S5 or is it just me?

    I reckon it’s because you have come from an S3. I moved from a Bmw 140i to a 340i before the S5 and it was a similar scenario due predominantly to the difference in weight and size. For the money a clio cup or similar would defo give you a great back up option for the back road blast! Had a Clio...

    Apple CarPlay

    Yo can set this up within car play settings on your iphone. To start when locked. Settings-general-CarPlay I think is where it’s located.

    Apple CarPlay

    It’s been working fine for me on both Spotify and Amazon music until this week and I got the exact same issue. Blank screen when clicking on Spotify app. Plus it even stopped me taking calls through the car speakers in apple car play. Switched phone off and back on again and it works ok...

    New S5 Sportback Order

    Hi Congrats on new order. Passive suspension is firm but it's also compliant and not crashy. I would have adaptive out of choice but I also took a stock car which didn't have this option and I've no complaints about the ride. I've got a 3 year old and the S5 SB is loads more practical than my...

    New to Audi - Recently got S5

    Congrats on the new car - get some snaps on! I just got my new S5 SB in manhattan grey on 1st September so need to get some snaps up as well! Came from a 340i so will get some opinions up on the comparison as well. The fan does the same on mine and did it on my previous Audi a few years back...

    Rehomologation letter anyone?

    I received one of these letter today, yet I picked my car up on 1st September and it already has the 1st year tax paid of course. It says I have the right to cancel with no charge so may drive for a few weeks and ask for a refund, lol.

    S5 Puddle lights

    Hi Was your new car a vehicle from stock by any chance. If so it's likely to have been a dealer swap out before pick up for you to bring a MY17 car up to a MY18 car spec. They did it for my new S5 SB pick up on Friday as well.

    S5 and S4 Production Suspended....

    Thanks for the info. Not a fan of those puddle lights anyway so that's no biggy. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on any software updates or more obvious interior / exterior changes etc.

    S5 and S4 Production Suspended....

    Hi All. I've just purchased a stock S5 Sportback and due to pick up sept 1st. I want to check if it's a MY18 vehicle. When I have registered it within myAudi.com it shows as Model Year 2017. Anyone else registered on my Audi with a MY18 car that can confirm what it's shows as online. It doesn't...
