Hi all, new here so apologies if I do anything wrong. My A4 B8.5 S-Line CVT started making a whining noise around 6 weeks ago but not sure exactly when as the wife drives it usually and she never noticed it. There is a slight whine when idle that gets worse as the revs increase. Really hoping it isn’t related to the transmission in any way. I was thinking possibly the alternator failing or something to do with the belt? I’m rubbish with this stuff though. Wondering if anyone has any ideas before I take it into the shop? I’d be really thankful for any input on this. Vid of noise is linked: https://youtu.be/vil177hzwNk?si=YbEEo970Yh2D81Av Thank you all.

Hi all, I have a 2012 Audi A4 B8 se with a multitronic box. It has the 8 speed box. The car has done 90000 miles. Recently it has started a groaning noise when driving and the engine rpm drops too 1000rmp or in the lower gears. When driving if I pull off slowly the car makes an occasional groaning sound and as engine rpm increases it goes away. Also when driving and I come to a stop and take off again quick it will make the groan sometimes. But If I accelerate fast there is no noise. Intiial thoughts from the mechanics at the main dealer were it was a water pump. Had the timing kit done and no improvements. The dealer is claiming its fine now. Anybody have any experiences with the above. As i am having little trust in the dealer on this occasion Thanks

Hi Everyone, My name is Simon, I have just joined the forum as a proud Audi owner, nice to meet you all. I own a 2014 Audi A4 B8.5 3.0TDI quattro Avant with sports suspensions (but not air suspensions), I love it, but something bothers me. I have recently noticed that the rear passenger side suspension is 1cm higher than the rear driver side by measuring the distance between the center of the wheel and the wheel arch on many flat surfaces with the same result. The car never had an accident. I brought it in at an Audi dealer, they found out that the left rear damper has been replaced under warranty in 2018 before I bought the car so they said that the problem could be because one damper was new and the other still "old". Replaced the right damper (the "old" one), the issued was not solved, still 1cm higher on the left. Replaced the springs with new ones, issue still there. Verdict: The car is fine, up to 1cm difference between suspensions is tolerated by Audi and considered normal. Has anyone noticed or experienced anything like this? I know it's not a massive issue but should I just accept it and leave with it? I have tried to search for the same issue but I haven't found anything like this, sorry in advance if this was already discussed. Simo

Hi, my brother has got an a4 b8.5 (facelift) saloon in the se trim and is looking for the Sline rear diffuser / bumper. I can’t seem to find any anywhere online in the sline trim on all the usual websites and car breakers near me. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or know of where to source one? Any help would be appreciated.

Evening everyone, owned my 2010 A4 for almost 18 months now, I'm 25 but oddly enough it is my first proper car, well first since I've passed my test anyway! I like to make the car my own so; Uprated my standard S Line alloys to Matte Gunmetal grey RS6 19"s! My favourite mod so far. currently awaiting delivery of a H&R Fully adjustable coilover kit, and next on the list is the remap and a full replacement of the exhaust system, starting with the removal of that soot collecting DPF box and then finishing with a dual exit, turbo back stainless steel system! Can't wait!
