Default Airbags only deploy ...

if the sensors in the vehicle sense an impact. If there was no impact, they won't deploy. The sensors measure sudden deceleration - a rollover will not trigger these sensors.

Nothing wrong with the sensors or airbags here, this is normal.

Default Re: and it still had temp tags - ouch!

I wondered when this would pop up in the forum.
Never let your friends test drive.He owned BMW's in the past so I thought I could trust him.Alot more power than he was used to! Insurance was great in prompt payment, and did not raise with the new RS4 since it wasn't my fault.Think of all the parts you can buy off of it when you wreck yours! just kidding.Thanks for the pics it brings back memories.

P.S. nobody hurt!
