The Audi S4 and S6 lease deal and general discussion thread
Discussion
Got ours now.
And... I am distinctly underwhelmed.
+ Suspension is nice and nuggety
+ Little bit chintzy inside but generally nice place to sit.
+ Engine sounds ok and seems to go quite well
- Standard alloys are hateful - also very kerbable, i give them a week before the wife trashes them.
- Non descript to look at but at least that was something I was aware of.
- Controls appear to be all over the place and not well thought out at all
- Wife complains of nowhere to put stuff, sunglasses, purse etc
- Appears a little flimsy, the BMW seemed to have thicker metal and thicker paint.
- Steering is awful and its not something for the keen driver
So there we are, hopefully it's a grower, it better be we have it for 2 years!

Mine arrived at dealer in June. I was originally told that I could collect in september on 68 plate but now told thats not possible and I take it before or don't get the deal...
I've complained a little and asked if Audi will make any contribution to my remaining golf R payments. I'm waiting to hear back...
Have you guys been running in your s4 or just driving it like you stole it from day one?

If its rented, you can rag the nuts off it from day one. Resale, Never going to be your problem, is it?
No but I just wanted to know what will give the best results from the engine...I've heard that the run in or not run in can result in a looser engine that gives better mpg than others and slightly better performance but not so sure how true this is?

Hi, anyone here who got there S4 managed to get the Audi connect working ? I can't seem to get the advanced features such as remote unlock.
I have the plastic tab key and scratched off to reveal a lettered code which I tried to link below. But did not work ? any ideas ?

I found totallossgap.co.uk the cheapest a couple of months ago - really good service from them too
Wow thats really cheap - I thought ALA was cheap this is almost 40% less! Thanks!TomScrut said:
Do ALA not do their price match where they beat other quotes by 20% of the difference anymore?
I would never give business to someone who had to lower their price to match someone elses - should be more competitive in the first place - I got a great price and great service from totallossgap so happy to give them my moneyAndy665 said:

Exactly, I went with TLG as well. Why go to the bother of getting ALA to price match when TLG offer the same service at a much more competitive price... The more business ALA lose from not being competitive, the more likely they are to review their pricing.
