Its me again with my S8 :)
So the car come back from garage and my annoying fuel smell is fixed yay! parts required...none wooohooo! leaking screenwash was only O-ring seal and exhaust needed some adjustment so now whistling noise is gone...Very happy all nice cheap fixes but there is more... Compressor is very noticeable/noisey? ugh... I need to look at brakes maybe? is a bit of judder when braking and also they dont feel right and super responive as in my d3 3.0tdi I've had before with same 385mm s8 brakes rocker cover gaskets spark plugs fuel filter and more and more haha In meantime I got hold on to the wheels I always wanted on D3(not sure how they called) and that's how it all came up...😁only fitted 2 to take a look as I need spigot rings for them(they are off D4) and standard bolts as mine are longer due to having spacers...They are in beautiful silver,not new but still very smart and refurb is not needed for now I'll attach picture with both sets so feel free to take a look comment Have a nice weekend all!

Bummer! Compressor was only replaced at the end of July, along with relay.
Nice wheels, but I prefer the original ones. BTW You need to add ACC to your signature line.

Did you say the silver ones were the new ones?
They look like D4 S8 rims without the narrow centre trim strip through the twin spoke. The dark coloured FE wheels look great though on the white car!
