Dr T Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 looks really good. is it a universal-ish one, ment for BMW, audi or saab? looks very similar to the one i got from ebay, not got round to fitting it yet but looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aly Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yeh probably is, and then cut to size! Was a good fit though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr T Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yeh probably is, and then cut to size! Was a good fit though.. you didn't need to cut it though did you? mines a good size. i suspect if you measure the width of the boot on the audi a4, a6, bmw e46 and saab 95 they are pretty much the same.

Dr T Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 (edited) Nope, was pre cut and painted! I really like it.. Does make a huge difference... yeah lip spoilers do change the look of the car a lot. I wasn't specifically looking for any particular trim when i bought my A4 it just happened that an S-Line came up locally for the right price but now i've got it i do like all the little aero/ego tweeks. What sort of mpg do you get out of yours, been thinking about jumping over to the dark side of diesel ownership and would like to stick to 4wd, always thought 4wd system kill the economy . just noticed yours is a quattro as well. mine's a 1.8T petrol (190 version), i was finding it's thirst even when i'm just commuting a little depressing so i've been really working on hypermileing to see what it'll do. last tank average (actual average rather than obc average) was 33mpg which isn't too bad, but it is running on super unleaded.

Aly Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Think mines is 180bhp, seems pretty low for the size of engine! But It's very torquey... Quite a bit of turbo lag but hoping that will disappear once I've had a remap done.. At the moment I'm doing mainly town driving, and because I like to warm the turbo up and let it cool down I've seen my mpg as low as 23. But when I commute (mainly motorway) I get around 44mpg... I appreciate I will loose economy because of the quattro but with the rubbish weather I thought it was the best option, as I'll keep it for at least 4 years! Can honestly say I'm pretty impressed.. I love the interior! Much nicer (imho) than a E60.. And with a new born the boot is huge! I know with the 2.0tdi engines there are a lot of reliability issues.. Have a look on Audi sport forum.. I seen a whole thread about the issues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
325coupe Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) I've not long just purchased an A4 2.0tdi 140 and have read about loads of engine issues but over all the car is brilliant, I've not had to do a thing to it or worry about anything since getting it in January and the E46 I keep finding there is more stuff to either fix replace or just tidy up every week Only things I'd like to sort on my A4 is a front bumper and bonnet respray due to small stone chips Edited April 21, 2012 by 325coupe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aly Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 That looks really tidy.. Did fancy an Avant but think the A6 one is just too big! A4 one looks so much better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aly Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Debaged the rear, and replaced my number plates for short (legal) ones... Gutted at the two holes someone drilled in the rear though! So needs to be sorted ASAP.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mintimperial Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 OEM silver +1 I think anything else looks weird on silver.. Maybe hyper silver, but def not dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aly Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Was looking at the unused spare.. And that's pretty bright silver! That's what I'm thinking also.. Would like to go almost diamond cut! But know a diy close to that would be a bit difficult, lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyZ Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Refurb them to same colour as now as they suit the car as they are IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
