    Winter tyres in London/Home counties

    If you live in a part of the country where it snows consistently for several months of the year or temps are consistently below 7degrees c then maybe winter wheels and tyres are worth the cost but in the south of the UK this is not the case so its more a preference than essential. I've used all...

    The latest view on S4 Brake upgrades?

    I went with Brembo discs and pads for the rear of my S5, approx. £240 fitted. I will be going with Brembo again for the fronts when the time comes. Unless you intend using the car for track days I see no point spending £1,000's, as the standard brakes are up to the job IMO but its up to you...

    First Post, First Thread, First Audi and it’s an S4 (B8)

    I remember my days with a company fuel card. Standard diesel or petrol only and an engine no bigger than 3.0 litres. Those were the days :cry:

    My S5 averages a little under 26mpg for normal day to day use. Best I have had is 33mpg and the worst is 21mpg. Yout tuned S4 will now do a lot less!

    Like you i don't see the point of a noisy exhaust and from inside the car the factory one sounds pretty nice to me on the S5. The LED interior bulbs make the interior very nice, it was the first mod I did. I also removed the V6T badges but in my case I didnt replace with the "supercharged"...

    Nice car, the black bodywork is a ****** to keep clean and shiny though. A great mod, if not already done, is to change all the interior and door bulbs to LED and buy a Carista.

    Recall affecting CREC engines (2014+ S4)

    Still waiting for the recall to be done on my S5 after nearly 3 months and 2 cancelled appointments and a lot of wasted time. I'm beginning to loose hope with Audi.

    Help Please 11m wider offset - will it rub?

    Look good. Don't forget to tell your insurance company, it shouldn't make any difference to the premium but wise to let them know anyway.

    2014 S4 B8.5 advice only 6k miles

    It's a lot of money for a 2014 car despite the low mileage. IMO having such a low mileage due to being stored for 4 out of 5 years of its life actually reduces the cars value. I only paid £20k for my 3 year old S5 2 years ago (higher mileage though).

    Car meet

    Does Audi have a "premier" dealership anywhere like Mercedes have at Brooklands? Brooklands is great, there is a dealership, an MB museum and you can watch the various AMG cars going around the track and skid pan, plus its free. Worth a visit to have some lunch in the cafe or restaurant and...
