    B9 S4 - Car making a loud humming noise…

    Audi Assist (AA) chap came out. No fault registered and car not symptomatic. He refused to recover it, despite my video/photograph of faults. Told me to go back to Audi dealer ☹️

    B9 S4 - Car making a loud humming noise…

    Hi there, I have a 2018 S4 B9, owned it 2 years at the end of this month. No issues, other than a faulty wing mirror heater, done under warranty last November. I do a lot of miles at the moment commuting, upon average 100 per day. Today, from a cold start (in inclement weather) I drove 25 miles...

    Haldex qauttro

    I had an S3, it had some serious issues regarding handling that could have caused a fatal accident when driving in fairly normal circumstances. In short, the back end broke away from me big time when emerging on to an A road from a turning. Luckily I can drive, so I collected it up and...

    Haldex qauttro

    The TTS (can’t speak for the TT) is a completely different beast, just because the drive train is the same and the engine is the same as the S3, don’t get caught out thinking it will behave the same because they really are very different vehicles.

    Uneven tyre wear 64 plate S3 8v

    Quick update. The car has been back to Audi and it has had a full drain down of the Haldex oil, flushed through with fresh oil and strained, drained again and refilled. Hopefully this will have fixed this issue, no further problems to report thus far and I have done 2k of miles since collecting...

    Uneven tyre wear 64 plate S3 8v

    Fair do’s... well I guess there’s not much point in speculating further, best to just wait and see what’s what when it goes in for the checks. Thanks again for everyone’s input and support :)

    Uneven tyre wear 64 plate S3 8v

    Thank you for your input, honestly I do not feel it was road conditions, but just because I don’t feel like it was.. doesn’t mean I’m right however. Yes it has 18” rims and yes the TTS did have the Haldex system on it. The car now has a full set of new tyres and is booked in to have a full...

    Uneven tyre wear 64 plate S3 8v

    It was a standing start at a junction, when there was enough of a break in the traffic I pulled away in S mode fast enough to catch up with the speed of the traffic before it caught me up, I didn’t floor it and I didn’t go for an insanely small gap in the traffic that would have required a...

    Uneven tyre wear 64 plate S3 8v

    Those are looking really good! Thanks for sharing. Mine now has MPS4’s all round too, although I’m not going to push it at all until they’ve done the wheel alignment and tested it, but I’m sure they’ll be a vast improvement on the Conti’s, which I didn’t rate at all anyway. Little update. The...

    Tyre Puncture on an S3

    My feeling is that there should be no more than 3mm max difference between the front and rear, so unless I had more than 5mm left on the good pair then I would do all 4. I currently have 2 rear tyres in dire need of replacement, the front two are contisports and have 4mm left, which would mean...
