    Service Manual

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    What is the best source for a technical service manual for a B7 RS4? Years ago when I was driving a 2005 B6 S4 I had a Bentley CD/ROM disk but it was not very useful once I no longer had a computer with Windows XP.

    Any suggestions? Hopefully a printed copy?

    Thanks.

    it's probably not the best answer, but I bought a used laptop off of ebay for ~200 bucks that still had windows 7 professional about a year ago, so that I could still use my B7 S4 Bentley CD. It works great for me for this purpose and as a cheap computer I can use in my workshop/garage for misc projects online.

    Does anyone else besides me think it's a bit questionable to rely on a 10 year old pc to keep your 10 year old car running?

    Works for me. Old 10 inch Acer running XP and VCDS lives in my glove box. It's there when I need it.
