  • Welcome to the second episode with our Audi Allroad C7 TFSI .
    Fell in love straight away and I did like the stock look but because we need winter set of wheels I decided to get some nice set of wheels for it . It might not be to everyone taste but important thing is I like them 😀 . Leave me a comment what wheels you would put on or have on your Allroad . Next up was the service where the Japan culture shocked me again . But more in the video .
    Thanks for watching

    Japanese home market cars generally do not do high miles, but a lot of their driving is idle and stop/start in traffic. Given the servicing you are doing now I am surprised you also did not drain and change the coolant as well (then you could remove that overflow bottle making access much better to those plugs).

    About 5 years ago I bought a 2011 A6 C7 but the MMI was from the C6 models. Previous owner had done something with the MMI and had no maps and kept resetting to German. I contacted Audi Ireland who told me it would cost €750 to flash to newer software. Not a chance I was doing that. Last year I bought a module to add Apple Carplay/Android Auto for half the price. Had to pull the MMI out from the dash and plug the module between the MMI & the car and has worked very well since. I brought the car over to England during the summer and used the maps a lot for navigation as well as radio and music from the phone. Better to do that than pay Audi stupid money for an old MMI update.

I get my Service every 5 to 6 K Miles. I'm a firm Believer in Maintenance. I just Hope I can Keep the S5 for along time as I just can't trade every 3 years. I getting Older and Money needs to be Considered. I expect a Carbon Clean at or about 60K. Is this realistic? Iv'e watched you work on those engins for a few years now and am hoping the Maintenance will keep it running for years to Come. Any tips you can share would be great. Thanks for your Channel.
