Good condition. £45 posted. 

My car is a jap import brought in 2016. It’s an S4 B7 Avant. The clocks have been changed but the Speedo reads all wrong. It was like this when I bought it in Oct 18. Previous owner didn’t tell me until I landed in Manchester to pick the car up. Anyway when I’m doing 70 the Speedo is reading 100! I’d have thought if I was doing 60 and the clocks were still km it would read 100. The faster I go the more wild it gets. It’s been plugged into Vagcom and doesn’t seem to have done anything. Audi want the car for the full day which is a pain in the !Removed!. Anyone got any ideas or a way to sort it through Vagcom? 

Hole on the flexi was fixed and the light reset. Hasn’t came on since. Thanks anyway. 

She was in for a valet and polish today. Also lowered 35mm now. 

Car had a full service on Wednesday and now the EML light is on. Says it’s something to do with the 02sensors in the exhaust. Is that a common fault? They easy enough to replace? 

Same size as mine. No issues. I have a 235/35/19 all round with no problems. 

It’s now sitting on Stuttgart ST9 19’ wheels with winter tyres. De chromed the window surrounds as well. Also waiting on H&R lowering springs. Soon it will be going for a carbon clean and an ARP remap. Not much gains to be had but the remap will help it lower down the Rev range. Still loving it. 

Found. 

Got to the bottom of it. The clamp for the cat back exhaust wasn’t sealed properly. Sorted now. 

I have a B7 S4. Noticed tonight a ticking noise from under the car on idle and gets slightly louder when driving when revs increase. It’s almost like a relay ticking noise it’s odd. I can hear a whirring noise when I use the paddles to come down gears at low revs. Any ideas? 

Just got this. Very happy with my choice. Only had the car an hour and it was on the ramp at DKU Performance in Birmingham for a custom cat back. Smaller rear boxes and 3 inch quad black chrome tip. I absolutely love how it sounds now. Hopefully the vids work. Cold start with the new exhaust. 🙂

As above please. On the hunt for an S4 B7 Avant in Black.  Looking to purchase end of Oct. 

thank you.

Welcome to the forum Alan, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

goid choice of Audi, but what's made you decide to go for a petrol rather than diesel? 

cheers

Steve

Hi Steve,

The diesel I have is my first one. Previous car was a 600hp Supra and had to change due to my daughter arriving. I just miss the noise and drama a petrol car brings and the V8 Avant is a good compromise I think. The 535d is quite quick for such a big car as I’ve got Hybrid turbos on it etc 414hp and 584ft/lbs. it’s a nice car but winters in Scotland It will be pretty useless. End of sept mid Oct time I’ll be on the hunt for a black B7 S4 Avant. 

Hi, New to the site. Currently own a 535d but on the look out for a black B6/B7 S4 Avant. After my car sells of course. Hopefully a B7 manual but they are few and far between it seems. 

Thanks.
