Have to admit that my coasting and start/stop had stopped for a few months. With lockdown I've done a little less mileage and to begin with I had not noticed but in hindsight it must have been a good 3 months since stop/start and coasting had not worked. So, I applied some google science and...
Since it's a lease, none whatsoever. It's a long (and not particularly interesting) story pinned elsewhere but my original lease order was the petrol S4, before Audi stopped making it and I was left waiting for the best part of 18 months for the S4 TDI in ints place. The difference in mpg is...
I'm leasing my S4 TDI. Good car. Very, very quick but more of a GT than a sports car. I'm averaging a real (calculated) 38.5 mpg so far, albeit the majority of miles being relatively tame A road commuting, 24 miles each way. If you're buying (rather than leasing or PCP?) I'd be a little...
Just under 5000 miles, mostly fairly gentle commuting on A roads and I have a calculated average mpg of 37.5mpg, whilst the computer shows an average of 37.9mpg (so pretty accurate, really).
WarwickBoy, my S4 TDI does this quite often. Conditions have to right though: your speed needs to be between 34-99mph with foot off the gas, so that you're coasting (which likely means you're going downhill, or perhaps on the level). I've travelled up to half a mile with the engine off (slight...
I can safely say that police access to this data will have been considered entirely proportionate and necessary to the level of offence being investigated i.e. murder. It might also be proportionate and necessary for lesser offences, such as burglary; or for immediate life at risk issues, such...
I have to say that I do find much of the debate entirely redundant. I'll never drive my lease S4 TDI abroad, or on track, nor on a 'private road'. Therefore I'll never drive it at 100mph or anywhere particularly close. Nor will I be doing a drag race at the traffic lights. What I will be...
I got this message around a month ago and thought I'd have to do the same. But then a day later, having logged out and back in again, the access came back. I'm not sure if this time around it's connected with the MMI outage but it was certainly a temporary issue back then.
WarwickBoy, thanks for your comments! There's no battery only indicator - it's just that the revs drop to zero, obviously meaning that the engine is off.
It very much sounds (smells!) like the car was doing a regen. Manufacturers deliberately don't install a DPF active indicator light as it...
I've had my lease S4 TDI saloon for two and a half months now and, after 2500 miles or so, it's time for a first review. It took the place of a leased Golf R Estate which I had for three years, so I feel I can make a pretty well informed comparison.

Well, after 18 and a bit months it's finally here! And I have to say it's exceeding already quite high expectations. I haven't given it the full beans yet but, my god, she feels fast even compared to my Golf R.
Yes, the boot is the same as the saloon, with a fixed floor, save for the glue and tool kit under the section closest to the rear seats (Audi Milton Keynes now have both a Turbo Blue S4 saloon and a Tango Red S4 Avant).
I ordered my (then petrol) lease S4 on 6th April 2018 and the (now diesel)...
This week's Autocar has the S4 TDI saloon road test. 4 stars overall. Quicker than its previous S5 petrol road test in every single set of figures, whether from stationary or in gear, including:
S4 TDI S5

0-100...
