Not much to report here tbh, its been relatively quiet with the car with just moving house etc, It passed another MOT with flying colours got a service and had a wee trip to the auto sparkie, My pad warning light come on even thought the pads were fine, turned out it was the connector pins on the plugs corroded.
Good thread chap, i'm soon to be collecting a 2010 A6 170 Special Edition, hoping to add a few little treats to it.
