This is outrages. In Slovenia they are around 15 eur per set. And it's super easy to install them by yourself.

Nice consumption. In which mode were you driving?

Didn't notice anything like that. For me it looks like everything is the same as it was.

Without the sound generator I would think I'm driving an EV!

Nothing major is included in this update. Already updated mine this morning.

I just noticed on a German forum that there is another owner how is booked in for the same update, 5FMIB3OI1806, on 27th of July. Currently has a device part number ending with B and SW version 1668.

Same here with the mpg. I drive either on motorway or in town. No country B roads where you can drive 60mph where you can get mpg in the 50s. And I'm happy with that. I have basically the same mpg with the RS as I had with 2003 Honda Accord with 156 HP petrol engine. And that's perfectly fine.

Looks very nice!

Congrats. It looks like the waiting time is quite long these days.

Wow guys. No need to attack me personally for expressing my opinion. Maybe frightened was a wrong choosing of words. I don't like the feeling of knowing the engine being turned off. That's it. And you can't compare this to a hybrid since there you still have an electric motor which drives the car. And please don't throw that environment thing at me with saving fuel. There is a lot more efficient things to do to contribute to the clean environment beside using start/stop system. It might save you 10% of fuel in heavy traffic. But definitely not where I drive.

Hi I think there were already a few similar issues reported on this forum. If I remember correctly the lights were changed under the warranty.

Those prices are per set of tires? I would definitely stay on 19 inch rims. They suits the RS much better than the original 18 inch. I think hitting a pot hole with 18 or 19 inch rims wouldn't make a big difference.

I can't understand how you guys can like the start/stop system. I would say it's one of the most annoying solutions in the automotive history. I'm actually quite frightened just thinking of motor being turned off when waiting on the side road trying to turn on the main road with heavy traffic. I turn off the start/stop system with every drive I make. I'm already doing it automatically.

was just think about this. But I can't really tell. In everyday driving I try to minimize brake usage so I don't use brakes much. And I can't remember of any real hard breaking in the last couple of 100 kms when driving normally.

I also have the same feeling. Having almost 9000 km now. Was driving a 2017 A45 AMG the other day and stopping performance was like day and night. I know I can't really compare these two cars but still I think stopping performance shouldn't be that big.

And you waited a week to show it to us?!?! Congrats! It looks very nice! When is the video coming up?

I win!

That's a good sign.

Yes, I see it. But unfortunately I can't tell if it's really a moon white or candy white. Maybe some other members can help here. Maybe you can try to search for the paint code? Old models had the sticker somewhere in the boot. Not sure if the new ones also have it.

Do you have any pictures of your car?

I would have also thought that all metallic paints have some sort of flakes/sprinkles mixed in the color which should be clearly visible. In one of the German brochures from beginning of this year, it also says "perleffekt" which should be clearly visible.

You are right. Didn't thought of the grid. Thanks for pointing this out.

Really interesting. @VAGProf did give us some very baffling information which before I thought were not possible. Changing of device part number and SW version 1806. But I really like where this is going.

You think Mamba Green and Hyper Green are the same colors? According to statements Hyper Green is a metallic color. Versus Mamba Green being a solid color.

As discussed on FB group, it's really strange (at least for me) why the new color Hyper Green is only available in the UK.
