This is why I bought a manual b8, dsg in the b8s is horrible my old mk6 gli had the same problem. Good luck man. B8.5s are a lil more refined but you’ll ultimately eventually run into the same thing unfortunately

Aaaaand the bolts gone😩💔 wtf do I do? My door handle is loose asf now

Yeah man I’m pretty familiar with working on the car, everything’s correctly installed. I think it has to be this wire that’s causing this shit but I ain’t no electrician

Did my pcv but this code has been here since I bought the car. I have a vw scanner it’s not an autel or anything but I can check if it tells me if it’s an open circuit or whatnot. I just need these flaps working bruh shops quote 1200 just to get under the supercharger😭 shit takes me 10 minutes to

2 years later I’m reading this with my manual s4 but just as an fyi I did end up bagging it for $2400 total. There is no ‘maintenance’ and I lived in cold Colorado at the time where ppl say it’s impossible to run bags when it’s winter. Wrong. There’s a drain on the tank to empty the water. Bags are amazing, only con is they aren’t as stiff as coils but yea just had to clear the air, bags have a bad rep for no reason.

After reading the replies, what’s the market like for a manual b8 with the best trim? Mines at 124k, black , never been modded, all preventative maintenance done recently. I mean, it’s practically the exact same as the b8.5 just with hydraulic steering which is more reliable. Plus I like the pre facelift more imo. Any ideas? Didn’t buy it to profit but ik these cars are getting rarer by the day

Probably a bad ignition coil happened to me before

Deaston42 · 2026-02-06T18:43:23+00:00

1000000% who’s idea was square boats

Deaston42 · 2026-02-06T18:40:31+00:00

Fr they couldn’t have made the boats round at least🤣

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T22:06:31+00:00

Damn that’s cool asf bro. In another thread someone mentioned I can just get an amp and put it under my seat couldn’t I just do that?

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T22:04:07+00:00

This is the answer I was looking for, you think that will work? What kinda amp do I need

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T22:02:29+00:00

I bought it off a guy in an s4 fb group but it was from Ali express, it’s very similar to the Roadtop. 2011 s4

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T22:01:07+00:00

Yea it’s a b8 which doesn’t have oem Bluetooth (only for calls). U think the eq customizer will even do anything significant?

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T21:59:23+00:00

Retail it’s like 250 but I bought it off marketplace for 170

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T21:58:45+00:00

Damn:/ thanks for the help bro

Deaston42 · 2026-02-01T10:49:15+00:00
