    Revo Stage 1

    Thanks guys. Is it dangerous if a mapped car is run on 95ron fuel or will the car be able to ****** the timing to compensate? For the sake of £100 it sounds like the flexibility of the SPS is worth it for me. Returning to stock might be useful for a dealer visit, but im guessing the pulley is a...

    Revo Stage 1

    I'm about to pull the trigger on a stage1+ and gearbox map and have a few questions: Will the blackfriday discount only apply to the stage1+ as you get £100 off the gearbox map if doing both? Does the SPS only apply to the engine map in terms of factory default? Is the SPS worth purchasing...

    Audi S4 vs Jag XFS

    What did you actually use voice control for in the s4? I struggle to find any real use for it

    Carista App

    This was the one i bought: I meant info from the Torque app, not Carista. Engine wasnt running when i got the message, just ignition on.

    Carista App

    i just purchased a BT dongle and downloaded the app. The diagnostic works and i can get real time data from Torque etc but when i click on the customise section i get: "your OBD bluetooth device is defective. Checking for generic obd2 faults may work but you cannot use customizations in the...

    Another S4 joining the ranks soon, maybe....

    Some interior pics as thats easier to keep clean in this weather! Also, anyone know if there is a way to get SG5's to interface via AMI cable. Only seems to do charging and not communicating :-(.

    Thanks Dippy, Seems its possible to rip from CD if you enable via VCDS but SD card it is for now. Yeah, i had a look in the manual and it wasnt very clear. I tried Efficiency mode the other day and it seemed to just change very early and stay in a low gear rather than changing down when...

    Well a few more days now spent with the S4 and i'm loving it so far :-) Some initial queries that i have: Do you have to rip cd's to laptop and then SD card in order to load into jukebox? Is there anyway to enable audi connected services etc via your phone, or do you have to have simcard in...

    Picked up this car today. Just the 400mile drive back home to get to grips with the beast! ACC made the motorway miles a breeze and averaged 32mpg with a few blasts! The last 150miles were A road which brought the average down to 28 which I thought was still pretty good considering the pace...

    so you cant run ACC without the active bit then? I can tell the lane assist thing is going to **** me off having to indicate to change lanes on a dead motorway! Can you switch it round so the button turns it on, rather than off?

    S4 - Insurance

    I just got a quote from Direct Line. My S3 was £180 for the year and they wanted to add £80 to the premium to change to an S4 i'm hopefully about to purchase but i moaned and they managed to get that down to £20, so £200 all in, which isnt bad. I'm 31 with 9+ years NCB and car kept on...

    Active cruise, i think i will get on with but agree the lane departure thing doesnt sound like i would ever use or want. How does it work, does it make you indicate everytime you change lanes etc?

    Ha, i'll take your word for it. Sods law that one will turn up with the exact spec im after the week after i buy anyway!! Is there different versions of red and black seats or is it just the iighting in some pictures. I'm hoping its a darker shade than some of them on google image search lead...

    i'm usually a manual over auto guy, but was really impressed with the S-Tronic but it does worry how complicated and expensive it is if it all goes wrong! Good effort to spin your S4, i wonder if it would have done it without the diff. I've had a few tail out moments under power in the S3 but...

    hmm, i havent driven one with but never really pushed the test drive very hard to find out if the standard car fell short. Do you notice it with day to day driving or is it just when you are pushing on? I'm wondering how much placebo effect is going on here too?! In what way does it transform...
