    Press clutch to start issue

    Honestly you are way overthinking this. Stick your new rod in, if it doesn’t solve anything put the original back

    Press clutch to start issue

    The push rod was just that a rod with a ball at each end, easy to pull out and push the new one in. What I did was buy a second hand cylinder cut and extended that rod and then just got it swapped over when the car was up in the air for a brake change. It has been utterly faultless since

    S4 Brake caliper upgrade, 4/6/8 pot?

    What sport diff errors are you seeing? I recently had to have the temp sensors changed in mine as it was throwing up errors under spirited driving

    Heat management then ceramics are your friend, if the stopping power is enough with the macan then look at carbon discs for those, check out midland ceramics, they do bespoke applications and can make you whatever disc you need

    I thought with the 6 pot AP‘s you needed to fit the rs4/5 brake booster as well? I’d go with the B9 akebonos and perhaps look at ceramic discs.

    Has anyone insulated the speakers so they don’t vibrate the doors?

    I’ve not done my Audi, but virtually every other car I’ve had, including my GTR. It could be as others have suggested just loose trim or screws. But doing a proper job will improve the sound and make the car feel a bit more premium.

    Door card off and dynamat the door skin itself, if you want to go to the extra effort some closed cell foam as well. I also do the back of the door card with dynamat but you need to be more careful with this so you can still fit the door card after.

    Awful in snow

    100% all about the tyres, even tyres that are decent in the wet don’t do well with snow and ice. I run mps5 and even they aren’t great in snow

    A4 Avant washer/wiper not working

    I bought one of these, it fit perfectly with the standard wiring and worked first time. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/162194644064 in your case I would check fuses and that you are getting feed to the motor. Simon

    All depend on the disk size really, can’t recall offhand what size the a6 disk is but it is bigger than the standard S4 ones

    I use an A6 disc with the b9 akebonos and have no issue with pad to disk contact. Somewhat cheaper than the rs4 disks as well
