Pictures of the New 2014 S4

Some observations:
First of all my 2014 has B&O and Nav which the 2010 doesn't
1) Miasno and Brilliant red are not different enough for me to notice a significant difference in color
2)The interior has more metallic accents especially on the
switches. And the color of the silver trim around the gauges is different. It is darker,like a light titanium rather than matching the Alum trim color. Probably won't get it painted, at least not right away
3)Flat bottom steering wheel feels better in my hand due to the increase diameter.
4)I like the soundakator. Give the car a more sporty feel.
5) Checked the oil level cold this morning and it was at the MIN line on the dipstick. Does this mean the car came from the factory with low oil level or is that where it should be if it is actually filled correctly?
So today, I added metallic valve stem covers and caps. Put on the SC badges, blacked out the middle of the grille with black out tape, and put on the DIY IC radiator protector from my 2010, since they still don't have any protection from the factory.
I found the owners manual in the trunk today. But I could not find the tweezer like tool used to remove the plastic caps on the lugs. looked everywhere including them tool storage area under the spare. Any have another place to look?

oil dip stick
not trying to be too picky, but ....
the 2014 S4 doesn't come with a dip stick.
ECS sells an Audi or VW one that fits our car. I bought one and it seems to be perfect. But how did you measure your oil? Perhaps the dip stick you used isn't properly calibrated?

Curious. Will have to check out the new cars at dealership this Friday when I go for service.

Took the dipstick that was in my 2010(from ECS) and swaped it into my 2014. The thing is that I alway thought that oil was full if it was at the MAX line. Oil level reading on the MMI shows oil to be at max with dipstick reading MIN. Read with engine cold.

Congratulation on the new car! Since you'd been in the 2010 for a couple years I would like to hear your comparison....especially on the steering wheel that some complaining about.
