FAQQuestions about the RS4 manual

Which RS4 years does this manual cover?

Every year from 2002 to 2008 — 3 separate manuals, one per model year. Pick your year in the selector; the manual you receive is matched to that exact year, engine and trim.

Is this the OEM Audi RS4 manual or an aftermarket guide?

The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Audi published for the RS4, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.

Does it include RS4 wiring diagrams?

Yes. Full wiring diagrams are part of every RS4 manual, alongside repair procedures, specifications and diagnostic information.

Why do some RS4 years cost more?

Every RS4 year is $40.99.

Is this a subscription?

No. One payment, and the manual is yours to keep — unlike per-vehicle subscriptions that renew every year.

How do I get the manual after purchase?

It is a digital manual — nothing ships. Access details arrive by email right after checkout, and you can use it on any device.
