    S4 door blades

    Did they come black as standard? As mine look like they've been colour coded, but have faded. It looks as they weren't lacquered. Can't really tell from this pic: The same goes for the rear valance, were they black from the factory or body coloured? Anyone got any pics of the above in...

    S4 Engine Mounts - how hard?

    Hey all, Got an error coming up on VCDS about my left side engine mount and there's quite a judder on the inside at low revs/speeds. A quick look (it's ****** tight down there!) looks like there's a leak but can't be sure. How hard as these to change? I'll be doing both. I ordered two mounts...

So with that in...

    Hi all. Anyone know the size of the driveshaft bolt, inner. I'm working on changing the inner CV boot and that's what's got me. I've got a horrible feeling I've slightly rounded one of the bolts using a TX bit, but that's not it. There's a cover on top of the driveshaft which I've tried to...
