I've used two of these droppers without any radio interference.
IIRC it was the cheap plug in types that were causing problems.

Just a quick couple of pics of the 8 while I drove it to NL. Here she is parked up in an underground garage where my family live.
I couldn't think of a better car to drive 7-8 hours in across the continent...the B&O is just sublime and together with the ACC it makes the drive a complete joy. Oli

lovely car as always, great location for photo shoot.
However my OCD wouldn't allow me to leave it uncentered in parking box.

Haha...I didn't notice but seeing it now, I concede I feel the same
My family live in the south called S'Hertogenbosch (aka Den Bosch) if that means anything....not in a garage but if given the choice of a 2 bed house or a garage this size i know what i'd choose Oli

I lived in Germany for nine years. from 18 years of age. Since then I have driven to and fro all over Europe from Norway/Sweden down to Portugal/Italy and the old Yugoslavia. Not like a normal visitor/tourist/worker but as a Coach driver/tour manager. So I have become quite familiar with Europe in general.
S'Hertogenbosch is an area that I have spent some time in one way and another. I once spent a week there on a farm during a town twinning visit because they were the only family with a yard large enough to park my 12 mtr coach in. When I think about it that seemed to be the norm for me during visits like that. Once in Hasselholm, Sweden I was accomodated in a schol classroom because the school yard was the only place I could park the bus. Worked out well because I managed to repair their data network for them. I have many strange experiences like this but will leave them for another day.

She's just had her annual service with Jack Barclay Audi and passed her MoT without advisories. Given all suspension arms and tyres were changed last year, I was hoping she'd sail through
I have to say, I do really like Jack Barclay Audi in Wandsworth from a customer service point of view. Good on updates, friendly and courteous. Apparently they get quite a few D3 and D4s but nothing with this spec or condition and a few of the mechanics and sales folks had a proper look at it whilst in lol. I was also able to see quite a bit of what happens in the workshop as my dashcam records when the ignition is on....some funny banter! Hopefully another year of happy motoring! Oli

Well done Oli! We will have to arrange another SE meet up soon!
I love the sight of a fresh MOT with no advisories - just had 2 done like that and it looks mighty fine!!
