    Black Optics?

    The vinyl has held up well. The installer used 2080 3M Gloss Black. I wasted £60 by trying to do it myself. Also got the chrome strip above the diffuser wrapped. I think the diffuser is also darker on the black edition. I didn't get that wrapped or sprayed, but wished that I had. Also got...

    Black Optics?

    I got a black edition grille off eBay for £160. I don't think the window trims are easily removable. I got mine wrapped by a wrap shop.

    What colour calipers for a sprint blue DTM?

    Yellow would look good against the sprint blue in my opinion.

    Retro fitting puddle lights

    Hi Carl. Did u get the rears fitted in the end? The eBay link description doesn't list the b7 a4 as being compatible. But it definitely worked on yours? Thanks

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Looks like a pro job - gloss or matte? Did you use tape or big sheets of vinyl? I tried tape myself but couldn't get it round the rear quarter corner.

    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    Over the last few days, I had the chrome grill and window surrounds dechromed with matte black vinyl and also fitted a cupra lip. I think it makes the car look sleeker and sportier. It's a 2.0T FWD Special Edition BTW. I am considering the puddle and door light retrofit next and maybe tint...

    2.0tfsi BUL engine advice

    I've owned a 2006 A4 2.0TFSI SLine SE since 2009 @40k miles. It's now on 85k miles and the engine (BUL) itself has been fine. It's on a longlife service schedule, but I do an extra oil change myself midway through the cycle. I have an intermittent temperature gauge problem, which is likely...

    Temp Rising & Dropping? Thermostat

    I have had the same problem as you for a while now - the temperature drops to 70ish while driving on the motorway and increases to 90ish only when idling ( e.g. traffic lights). Fuel economy seems to have dropped by around 3mpg too and the car seems ever so slightly less responsive. I scanned...

    Which Harness for RNS-E Install?

    To update this thread, I took delivery today of the unit. The sticker on the unit says part number 8P0 035 193 B and it looks like it has an A4 faceplate attached. The sticker also says RNSE-PU, manufacture 12/01/2011. It has chrome knobs, but it also has the CD/TV button, not the MEDIA...

    Long Time Lurker

    Hi there. I've just posted a new thread in the Sat Nav sub-frum, having browsed Audi-Sport.net for the past year or so. I have a 2006 B7 A4 2.0T S-Line Special Edition. No mods, but I'm about to DIY retrofit RNS-E, followed by OEM bluetooth and then cruise control. Have had the car for two...

    Which Harness for RNS-E Install?

    Hi. I have a B7 A4 with a Symphony II (6cd changer & tape deck) installed. I'm about to receive delivery of a 2011 RNS-E (which I understand is an A3 unit with a faceplate). Which adapter or harness do I need to complete the install? I intend to get OEM bluetooth fitted in a few months time...
