Kylet1990 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Hey everyone, I've just purchased a 2011 Audi a4 B8 black edition. I love the car I've made the move from previous Nissan cars for something for solid and reliable. My only issue with the car is a very small bit on rust on the rear left arch. Does anyone have any advice on how I could nip this in the bud early? I will attach pics. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Welcome to the forum Kyle, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 馃檪 lovely looking a4 you have there. In terms of rust it'll need sanding back to metal then respraying. cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylet1990 Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 Thanks Steve I think il take it to a body repair specialist and get it repaired before it spreads any further. Do you have any idea in the rear led lights have a removable outer cover on them? Just noticed mine is cracked. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at specs the mpg urban is ment to be 52mpg however I'm getting 35mpg being very light footed. Any ideas if this mpg is normal anyone?

Joe Cott Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Hi Kyle The makers specs never come true cos they are done in smooth controlled conditions. I have a similar engine in my A3 with auto box & get about the same as you round town if that's any help. on a long non motorway run it's about 50mpg.

Kylet1990 Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 Cheers Joe. I'm ok with 35mpg around the doors it's still better than my qashqai was on fuel so I'm happy. Cheers聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
