Never launched my car, yet RS4 has started to slip. Though at about 40,000 miles - ChixDiggIt 2008-09-02 08:03:05 (31 views)

Me too. Stg 3- w/130k on the stock clutch. Never slips with any WOT, but I'm not launching either. - Wrinkledpants 2008-09-01 21:05:48 (38 views)

My RS4 clutch never slipped at 3-. Slips at full stage 3 though. - rktskicar 2008-09-01 22:39:08 (38 views)

Put in a good clutch and if you plan on racing do not get a RS4 clutch. - spinny201 2008-09-01 19:04:34 (48 views)

Just do it right the first time, go with a VAST or ASP feramic clutch - S40RCE:UnDeRH20 2008-09-01 19:45:52 (47 views)
