Can't say I've heard of that to be honest

Glad you got sorted 🙂

Fired

I'd recommend disconnecting it and give it an inspection. Water may have got into it causing it to short.

Yep they are. Unpainted plastic.

Could be the flywheel but could also be the release bearing

Could it be the immobiliser disabling it?

I know on my A6 I only have fronts.

Pack

Glad you got sorted 🙂

Might be worth you speaking to powerflow exhausts to see about them making you a custom exhaust. My brother and friends have used them and been happy with the results

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Either if those 2 tyre brands are good. They can be added, might be worth you speaking to an auto electrican. Your phone sat back can't be shown on the cars screen. You can get SD card updates. Have a look on eBay first. Yep mpg will be a shock if you've come from hybrids. What mpg is the car saying you're getting? TFSI engines aren't the most economical. Mirrors, it most likely won't have the feature. You could have it retrofitted and is worth speaking to autologics or Audi retrofits.

Just to add, regarding the brake pad warning light. It only applies to the front as the front only has the wear sensor.

I don't think there is annoyingly. You'd think it'd be a standard feature now.

Might be worth you trying to speak to a local independent audi specialist

It can't be disabled from my knowledge as it's part of the safety system.

It always baffled me why the rears never had a brake wear sensor. Was the uneven wear on the pad caused by a sticking piston in the caliper? I also didn't know Audi states you need to change front and rear pads at the same time, especially as you say the front wears faster. Just another money making con. Is your A4 Quattro? As that's the only reason I can think of for changing pads at the same time. I appreciate my A6 is older but I might have to look through the service information to see what that says.

You could look at an aftermarket head unit which is touch screen and have the features you're looking for. Will cost around £300. You should then also be able to get an adapter to plug into the current radio wiring harness

Could it be the ignition barrel itself?

Thanks for the recommendation 🙂

I'd recommend a second opinion if you're not happy with the initial garage. Might be worth you looking for an Audi specialist
