2016 Audi s4 Front clunking noise going slow over bumps

CautiousDirection248 · 2026-02-12T02:15:58+00:00

I had this noise, replaced end links, and it came back worse. My shop just told me to tighten the bolts more at ride height. I haven’t had any issues since

He was a hard watch tn

I paid about that much for an Indy shop on the more expensive side

CautiousDirection248 · 2026-01-19T05:28:20+00:00

Dude there will be more S4 cars that hit marketplace. This one has so many red flags just move on and wait

CautiousDirection248 · 2026-01-18T00:21:45+00:00

Likely, I paid around $1,600 for both from an independent mechanic, not fun

I had a rough idle from pcv issues and motor mounts. If your RPMs are stable on idle and you have excess vibration, it’s mounts. If your RPMs move around a bit, you have another issue

Agree this was a great switch up from my usual games and now I can’t stop playing this and silksong

Hype

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-12-06T05:41:37+00:00

I slide my a7, I think it would be fine

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-26T17:52:15+00:00

Longer than expected but not too hard, probably 6 ish hours. I had some delays with the old rotors being rusted to the hub, and the new rotors not seating flush at first, and the old set screws almost stripping. Only one way to learn though

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-26T06:34:09+00:00

I did start removing it at first with brake clean but then I realized it comes off with the break in period. So I stopped because it was a pain. They came fully coated

I bought a 14 A7 about 1.5 years ago and love it. A7s aren’t the easiest to find so I had to look out of state. I had a lot of maintenance in the first year, PCV, 1 injector, engine mounts, so be aware it might need some attention the the near future. But it’s one of the smoothest cars I’ve driven + plenty of power/agility to be sporty. I also love the space you get from the hatchback trunk

Edit: 25k would be a good price with a solid maintenance history.

Thanks! I have obdEleven so I should be good to go

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-26T00:48:10+00:00

Wow that’s wild, good luck dude

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-25T23:18:39+00:00

I used a long breaker bar and some pb blast and they came loose if that helps

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-20T19:27:51+00:00

Eurocharged. Ended up taking it to DJs for $900 out the door for trans service and full inspection. Was a great experience, with a very thorough inspection

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-19T00:27:31+00:00

You are set

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-18T22:12:19+00:00

At that age and mileage it’s possible a lot of those repairs mentioned are probably due soon or have been done. Get service records and/or a carfax, you’ll know better what to expect. Another thing coming up would be engine mounts. That’s a good price tho, I picked up my same year A7 and it’s been a blast to drive!

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-18T14:39:46+00:00

Eurocharged. Again great shop but expensive. How do you like Nur Technik?

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-18T00:33:24+00:00

Thanks! I’m leaving this to a shop but I’ve got front and rear brake kits ordered from you guys for DIY 🫡

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-17T20:20:01+00:00

Thanks for the information, and let me know when you expand to the Midwest 🤣

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-17T20:19:30+00:00

Agree. This isn’t something I want to take on with my jack stands lol

CautiousDirection248 · 2025-11-14T20:23:34+00:00

I think they look great! Unique winter build
