can honestly say I have not seen carbon build up within the engine like that for a very long time!

It seems slightly high....you could always reset it and drive it sensibly to see what it averages out with your driving style

Hi Dan....welcome to the Forum Plenty of hint and tips available within the forums. Good to have you onboard

Hi Guy....welcome to the Forum The BKD engine is a 16 valve and the power output for this range of engines is listed in the Wiki link below: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Volkswagen_Group_diesel_engines I would advise that you ensure the maintenance tasks are carried in a timely manner and using quality parts as there have been failures within certain engine components since inception and although they are easily rectifiable and relatively cheap to resolve it is just more of an inconvenience than anything. Good to have you onboard

Hi Seb....welcome to the Forums A fine collection of Audi's over the years and unfortunate news about the S4 Avant but at least you were okay and the car took the impact force (which is always good to know it can absorb large amounts of accident impact energy) Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor

Hi Nicky....welcome to the Forums That is incredibly low mileage for the age, what a find! Good to have you onboard

You could try these guys, would be a lot cheaper

Hi Ross I'm not sure if the data within the SRS control unit has been downloaded by/for Audi as I recall reading an article a few years ago about the data being captured post accident by the manufacturer as the control units were on an exchange programme (obviously being replaced in the event of an accident deploying the airbags) and therefore they kept the old unit and provided a new programmed one. If this is the case then they (the manufacturer - Audi) would have this data and I doubt they would be sharing it unfortunately.

Hi....welcome to the Forum Sorry for the late reply, must have missed this post. Glad you're enjoying the A5, although not the most ideal weather to be appreciating the hood down at the moment

Hi Nick See if you can make contact with Brad-B5 as he is in that area and he has set up a few events for the club

There are a few members on here from that area....maybe worth contacting Southampton Graham as he has organised a few events for the club

Seems to be the going price for that particular model...high demand so therefore high price

Hi Vin....welcome to the Forum Good to have you onboard

Does the engine management lamp come on at any point?

Sorry for the late reply.....not all members will go into the A5 section of the forum and if they haven't experienced the issue then there will not be usually be any responses. I have done a search through the forums for any similar faults and coming up with nothing unfortunately. I think it would be worth buying a VCDS kit and scan it yourself to save on huge diagnostic costs.
