Great Looking car!!

Since you are not far from me (I see the Upper Gwyned Twp sign), would be nice to see this car at the Cars & Coffee in West Chester (Starbucks, Rt 202/ Dilworthtown Plaza) some Saturday morning. Of course this weekend, I'll be at H2O!

That blue interior looks amazing with the body color.

Car looks great on this forum as well. I'll have to stop over and see it in person. What Vag com changes have you done so far? I could never understand audi putting the V6T emblem on the S4s.

I really hate the electric power steering in the car. I really want to to retrofit the dynamic steering. I know the rack and the column have to be replaced not sure if there is anything else aside from those two components. If I could go back to hydraulic I would. I did most of the stuff you did doc in terms of VCDS mods. Its not seeing as many miles as originally planned, as I picked up an Infiniti FX45 as a dog hauler/beater car and I am having plenty of fun with that right now. I just replaced the rear brake pads and rotors and the cabin and air filters, I will let the dealer do the plugs next week. (it has 106k miles on the clock) Wife loves her mini, we cancelled the order on the 2015 since we found a copy of the car that she ordered in a 2013 with only 2200 miles on the clock and for 10k less then the car we ordered. Also doesn't help that the mini is on this crazy epa delay.

Arpad, I did not notice any reall steering differences between my 2010, 2014 and 2011. I know the 2014 steeering was changed. Perhap I just wasn't paying attention to it . But it wasn't an issue for me.

You want to retrofit the dynamic steering? It is possibly the worst steering system I've ever used. Not only does it lack feel (as does the standard EPS) but the dynamic steering is unpredictable. In fact in dynamic mode it goes to fixed ratio...so I guess even Audi thought it was hopeless when it comes to sporty driving. It does have a quicker ratio than the standard EPS if memory serves...but didn't seem to make a huge difference to me.
