    2020 model OPF or not?

    Always thought the 2020 car had an OPF but this seems to indicate not. Can anyone verify? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202311013545955 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    For Sale Parts up for grabs…

    Won’t let me post in the classifieds. From the 8Y forum, I’ve got some parts that will fit the 8v available. Airtec induction kit - only purchased in May, covered a couple of hundreds miles if that, couple of small scratches on the air box lid due to my poor install skills. Forge turbo...

    Intercooler thread

    No doubt has been done to death on the 8v forum… Is anyone running an intercooler on the 8Y, seem to recall someone is running a Wagner Evo1? Which is a confirmed fitment for the 8Y. Only others I know that are confirmed fitment for the 8Y are the Revo one and the Airtec one. Airtec just...

    Q7 2018 Q7 Dash cam hardwire - help?

    Just in the process of hardwiring the dash cam in the Q7 and can’t seem to get the cam to turn off, would expect it to power down when I lock the car. The kit apparently has a battery drain cut off but hesitant to put it to the test. My understanding is that this will probably be due to me...

    Intakes / induction thread

    So what’s available and what are people running for the 8Y? I’ve seen plenty of folks fit 8V parts but the only confirmed 8Y parts I’ve seen are Eventuri Airtec Revo Racingline, to be released I know heat soak is a big thing but really fancy an open ‘ish’ design to get some flutter lol...

    Scorpion Exhaust for the 8Y

    So I picked the car up from Scorpion yesterday after leaving it with them for the last 2 weeks for development work on their system for the 8Y. It’s now fitted with an OPF back, non-res, valved system (3 inch I think, forgot to ask but that’s what their RSQ3 is). First impressions, very...

    B pillar rattle / general rattles

    So I’m noticing what is a very subtle rattle which I think is coming from the B pillar, fully expect Audi to say they can’t hear anything but I’m super sensitive to that sort of stuff. Also when I have the music up moderately loud this kind of increases the rattle, when it’s basey music...

    RS3 to RS4?

    3rd child on the way, strong used price, can’t keep a car for 2 minutes… considering swapping the RS3 to an RS4 avant. Anyone driven or owned both? Perspectives? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vehicle start system fault

    Anyone had this? Was driving along and the car started to judder a bit and I could hear a high pitched noise from what sounded like something rotating under the bonnet. Pulled over, ignition off and back on. Seems to drive fine but fault code is still there, short journey back but looks like I...

    Q7 Q7 4M interior trim removal advice

    Hi, I’m looking to remove and replace the following trim bits, does anyone have any instructions or tips? From what I’ve seen on YouTube videos from other simile aged models they should be too difficult but wanted to see if anyone had done so before etc? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Bluespark Automotive Tuning Module

    So as above I’ve had my car in with them for development the last couple of days. Just had a quick drive back from picking it up and can notice the car pull harder for sure but didn’t really get enough of a proper feel. Said he’ll send me a copy of the dyno graph, made just over 50bhp and...

    Racingline

    Had an interesting chat with them. Intake is nearing release. Almost had the car down for final development with them but it’s a 10 hour round trip for me, anyway they said they’re sorted now. However they also have a turbo elbow and intercooler (that fits with stock crash bar) in the works...

    Drive select memory

    Can’t remember if the 8v did this but I always like to run individual so I can have engine and exhaust more aggressive and suspension comfort. I thought the car just defaulted to auto every time but just realised it’ll remember whatever drive select mode you press, so long as it’s not an ‘RS’...

    High flow / sports particulate filters

    So I know a lot of folks will just decat and remove the OPFs but it’s not something I’d ever do given the legalities, always like to remain above board. Whilst sitting googling some exhaust stuff I came across a high flow DPF so I emailed the supplier to ask if they could also produce the same...
