Hey got mine on the same day now 4500 miles and enjoy every minute - off to check my coolant now!! Hope you get a result with yours. I had a 3 series BMW which always sat just on minimum, if I topped it up it would go straight to minimum but never any less.Made it to 1500 miles today. 4 months and 14 days since pickup. Booked in next week to investigate coolant loss (see my other thread).
Car looks great Scotty - I was reading back over the whole the over night, didn't you set a countdown timer!
Anyway, as I didn't want to start another collection thread and I'm about to be superseded by new S4 collections.
I though I'd stick a few photos on here - not the best with my phone and car wasn't clean...but it was sunny!
Might be worth asking for some recent photos. They settle apparently.This confirms my thoughts that my new S4 Avant will require lowering. Has anyone any experience of doing so on the B8.5 either with just springs or coilovers?
Hi ScottyMy car has been in to Audi today. If you have a recent S4 there's an airbag software update just out. Description is: 69K5 setting parameters for airbag control unit.
Hey Thomas, nice order - good colour choice!This confirms my thoughts that my new S4 Avant will require lowering. Has anyone any experience of doing so on the B8.5 either with just springs or coilovers?

The suspension does settle down, I'll try and get some current pics.
I think it could be lower but as i have damper control i wouldn't want to lower

Do I have to use an Approved Repairer?
Where appropriate, we will put you in touch with one of our Approved Repairers. By using an Approved Repairer you will be provided with a free courtesy car whilst the repair work is being carried out and the work will be guaranteed for at least 5 years. If you choose not to use a repairer from our approved network then you will not be able to benefit from the courtesy car service and we will not guarantee the work
Thanks Scotty, I know some insurers will only give 'market value' of the vehicle at that time so I'm being cautious. The Audi insurance is also Allianz!

Forgot to ask, can you let me know how much the maintenance clean was @ DMC?
I'm back down there on the 22nd for a touch-up on the coating and a clean
I dont have a lot of finance on the car so its probably not essential with regard to neg' equity? I think ill be ok for the first year as the insurance should replace for new anyway, I appreciate though if I crushed the thing after a year (as I understand it?) the 'return to invoice' may come in handy?? Do correct me if I'm wrong?!David are you doing GAP insurance? That should cover any difference after year 1. Got my GAP from ALA.
No you're spot on. All insurance is risk based. I had a chunk of finance so went for the GAP. First time ever for me.I dont have a lot of finance on the car so its probably not essential with regard to neg' equity?
