Q7 Heating Problem
The flap motors have been known to go on other Audi models so not sure if this also affects the Q7? Symptoms sound similar? I think it can be a relatively inexpensive fix if this proves to be the problem.

S4 lower grille
Not 100% sure on this but I have done some digging around on the internet and other people seem to suggest that it will be ok.

a4 b6 2.5 TDI quattro low on power?
I'm not sure how reliable that app is for providing accurate power etc? I would expect a car to lose a little power after that sort of mileage but not 50bhp. I would be inclined to get a full service done and maybe take it to a specialist with a rolling road after this just to see if you get similar results. Are you happy with the way it drives? Does it feel like it's down on power?

Tyre options
I haven't seen much of those tyres but I always recommend sticking with a decent brand and having 4 matching tyres. All my cars have always driven far better having 4 matching tyres!

Audi R8 Rubber Mats
No worries let us know if you find something good...

More BHP and Torque
I would definitely go with a remap rather than a tuning box. A tuning box is just something that fits 'in between' and messes with the signals sent. A remap is where the map on the actual ECU is changed for a new one and it does not require any physical modification. As long as you get it done by somebody reputable then this is definitely the way to go :)

Why do we Love our Audi's?
Style is something Audi definitely seem to get right. They have a good formula and they stick with it.

There are people out there who fix OEM cd players etc but it will depend on the cost as to what your best option is. If you want to keep the OEM look then getting it repaired will be a lot more cost effective than Audi as they will want a silly amount for a new one. If this doesn't worry you then you should be able to get some good value by going down the after market route.

Audi R8 Rubber Mats
Hi and welcome! I haven't seen any genuine Audi rubber mats I'm afraid only carpet - but I could be wrong. If you're not worried about them being genuine then there's loads of options on ebay. How come you're after rubber anyway?

A4 3.0i Multronic (2005) "Stiff" Gearlever??
Hi Mark, Welcome to the club! :) It's difficult to say without having a feel for myself as to exactly how stiff it is but at a guess I would say it sounds fine if it's ok in manual mode. Probably just solid build quality as you say! Worth getting them to change the fluid if you buy it though!

Dpf filter removal n mapping info..
No worries. There are still people that do removal whilst leaving the casing so it looks like it's still there but obviously at your own risk etc...

audi a3 smoking a litttle on startup
Hi and welcome to the club! :) Depends on how much smoke? Have you tried running a fuel system cleaner through and taking it for a rag? Using all the revs getting it nice and warm etc?

Dpf filter removal n mapping info..
Hi Damien, With regards to DPF removal, yes it can be done but it is being made illegal and will result in MOT failure from next year due to emissions etc see here: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-news/consumer-news/84818/mot-test-fail-dpf-removal For a remap try someone like superchips, they've been doing it for years and are fairly well respected.

Just bought a 2004 A4 Convertible
Glad you're enjoying the new Audi! Surprising to hear about all the problems with the Mazda. Normally Jap cars are fairly well screwed together - well apart from the cheap feeling interior plastics of course! :)

Mmi
Have you looked in the setting to see if the option is enabled? If not I have a feeling that on some of the older version of MMI it was not available or you could only have that OR an iPod connection?
