Is there a manual or something to download that wil help identify some buttons that I have no idea what they do?

Like the button on the console which has a steering wheel symbol on it; the button on the dash with the AWD symbol on it; and what diff would the 'snow' button make?

:blink:

been discussed before - but the button with the steering wheel symbol on it activates the up / down gear change buttons on the steeringwheel

snow button basically stops it from taking off in 1st gear ( to prevent wheel spin ) and I think it limits boost too???

there is also a button on the dash that locks the center diff for slippery conditions

( dont use it on tarmac ) I gotta run for now but I am sure some of the more in the know people will come along and enlighten you further.

The steering wheel symbol engages your tiptronic shifters

The AWD button changes the torque split in the ATESSA form 80:20 to 50:50

The Snow button lowers engine torque and starts the car in 2nd gear to prevent wheel spin in slippery conditions

My RS4 has the Momo steering wheel, so I don't think I have the tiptronic shift buttons there.

Thanks for the answers guys ... now I can yell at the GF for pushing buttons, knowing what harm they could do :blink:

for god sake don't press the snow button. It releases a huge dump of snow from the roof and you will be drying the car out for ages afterwards

mine just gives me bad reception on the tv.

The momo's I have seen (for series 2 tiptronic) also have the shift up/down buttons...?

      I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.

      Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.

      Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
