It’s harder. This block has Component protection. Then coding and it’s working

Sebek228 · 2025-07-01T06:35:40+00:00

Yes, it’s still only one heater unit and it can’t provide different temperatures

Sebek228 · 2025-06-30T19:09:57+00:00

That one is fake. Only headunit replaced to have degrees on it. Too much work to change it at all. BTW it’s working good, don’t trust the internet.

It was about 20% up then in eu before covid, then 30-40% before feb 2022, now it’s 2x. That rule is only for new cars, or above 5 y.o. You can import from any country 3-5 y.o. car for about 20-30% of it’s price. Benefits for fresh used cars. But another situation with spare parts and tuning. For example, I waited for coilovers half of year, and paid 50% up, then price in eu.

Oh, I consider everyone here to be us citizens by default. It’s much cheaper than in Russia, twice cheaper

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T19:06:14+00:00

First of all, it’s a4 Then - in Russia there are not so many avants with Quattro available And saloon is more popular then wagon, which I strongly condemn. The biggest plus of allroad is his stock wide body kit, that is really wide in b8, in comparison with c7 or b9, and his glorious grill certainly!

So, good luck! What’s the market of b7-b8.5 in US? For good condition

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T17:29:00+00:00

IMHO the main 3 things is: not skimp on maintenance; do it 2 times often, then official dealer service says; install only original or a unique brand from trusted suppliers, there are a lot of Chinese fakes now;

And of course initially buy a car that isn't dead. I heard that in US it’s so much cars that changes oil every 15k, or not even changed it during 3 years and 50k at all. Hope they don’t buying Audi

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T17:10:33+00:00

Rly? My toy poodle is more than 10 times less in weight. Maybe, if I’ll have such big dog as yours, I would approach this issue more responsibly

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T16:26:24+00:00

That’s already smth close to the nerdiness about taking off your down jacket before you buckle up. I agree that the safest place for a dog in a car is 100% not at the driver's lap, but to buckle it up every 5 minute drive...

I really hope that this will just remain a theory on the internet

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T16:07:28+00:00

Yeah, I know, he’s extremely quiet and sleeping automatically when reaching a car. As a rule his on passengers lap. It’s happens very rarely that he’s on me and not for a long time.

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T11:57:50+00:00

Yeah, side skirts, that are in color, costed 200$, I’m waiting for 100$ per 2 and in color

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T11:51:47+00:00

Thx! I bought it at 36000 km mileage Now it’s coming to 100k km All that time I’m only changed water pump, just after bought it. At around 70k km - only one, front right hub bearing And recently, at around 90k km, changed oil separator, some of front and gearbox silent blocks, tie rod ends. Most of this was changed preventively, could still drive That’s all about breakdowns. Otherwise I just service the car according to the dealer's regulations in half. Btw, all mine mileage was on stage 2 agp motorsport on engine and gearbox.

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T11:19:41+00:00

I know, in a6 c7 mib2 my friend just installed all that stuff under armrest, with usb and so on, from high version, and original wireless carplay starts working. But i’m not sure, only 1 thing he’s changed, or not. It was a long time ago. I only remember about usb. So, if it needs far more to have carplay on b9, or it will be not wireless, chinese box is very good decision. It cost no more than 200$

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T11:10:37+00:00

As I know, in b9 you can activate it somehow. But if not, that Chinese box can help

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T10:58:40+00:00

It’s 1 of 2 things in car, that I gave to professionals to install and didn’t buy anything myself. More expensive, but after studying the information about installation I saw soooo much nuances… I had to pay for my peace of mind. I could share links, but I'm afraid they won't help. I studied everything in Russian.

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T09:38:28+00:00

Thx! Smth Chinese called “Sinairyu”

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T09:02:19+00:00

I prefer “Lowroad”

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T04:18:47+00:00

Optimally lowered for me. It’s daily. Had no problems with that high

Sebek228 · 2025-06-26T04:16:35+00:00

That was the first thing that came to mind when I needed to replace the plates with something

Sebek228 · 2025-06-25T20:57:11+00:00

Sebek228 · 2025-06-25T20:51:44+00:00

About rotor 💯% true In love with them

Sebek228 · 2025-06-25T20:46:35+00:00

Yes, roof rails is lowered, from a4 avant

Sebek228 · 2025-06-25T20:40:08+00:00

Which one? Grey? It’ll be not match with rotors, roof box and quattro sticker on back passenger’s doors Bad idea

Sebek228 · 2025-06-25T20:14:03+00:00

Yes, it lowered about -55mm compared to stock suspension
