Haha, special "hand" towing for you AC_S5, only for VIP's ! What's your idle rpm at? Maybe just need an up tune to 700-800 rpm and stalling will go away, just like mine did.

Hmmm I guess we shall postpone. Any particular dates in mind? Or we can even change venue. Let me know what you guys think.

Hey, what class are u taking AC_S5?

Cheers
Uh oh.....we have to postpone the meet....
Hopefully the postponed meet will have more people to join us.

When I got my car back from the service, those white bars wouldn't go back down. I wonder what happen to it? I need to bring it back again and this time find Andy to take care of my car because the last SA Lee didn't even bother to explain to me what's going on with my car. I am very concern about the state of my car now, as they test drove my car for 70 something km. I ask them how come they need to test that much and the only reply I got from Lee was they test drove the car three times. Where the hell did they go? Yuen Long to pick up new cars for delivery? And when they give me back my car it say 30.9L/100km on the computer. I think my car took a beating from their driving, very bad on their part. Closely monitor those things when you guys bring your car in service next time.

White bars on the side of the techometer. You will notice those on start up when the engine is cold, and as the engine heats up those bars will go away. Now they don't go all the way down rather they have 3 of them still sticking out.

Don't worry AC_S5, I got the exact problem after I took my car for an service. They had updated the CIP to a more recent version, and according to my SA and other members in the forum, the white bars will not completly disappear after this CIP upgrade.

Here is the thread I started some time ago.

As for the cosumption suddenly goes up after the service, most probably after the CIP update, all the previous data are erased......maybe that's the figure right after the update for the drive from the garage to the ground floor?! I am not sure.

Haha, funny I never noticed the white bars before, I have to take a look today. Last week I found two parallel and vertical dents on my upper rear bumper near the trunk opening, I suspect it's courtesy of Mrs Bunbun... :thumbsdown: But she didnt say anything.

Btw, anyone here has driven a Z4? How does it drive?
