    editor@s-cars.org posted on the forum topic Radiator Drain Plug removal on 1995 UrS6 in the group Group logo of UrS4 / UrS6UrS4 / UrS6: 15 years, 7 months ago

    I have never fully removed the drain plug while draining my system. I would unscrew it at far as it would go and then flush the system with DI water before tightening and refilling. The tab thing doesn’t ring a bell for me. Maybe post a pic of it if possible?

    I am draining my radiator using the round plastic blue drain plug on passenger side lower radiator and have a question. I unscrew the plug about 5 complete revolutions, coolant drains out the drain tube but the drain plug does not want to loosen anymore and be completely removed. I don’t want to force it […]

    Hi Ed,

    I’ve been dealing with a similar issue myself. I assume you replaced all your coils with original Beru coil units AND boots?

    How many miles on your Avant? Have you ever replaced the power output stages on the firewall?

    1994 UrS4 was the best car I ever owned. Kept it for 14 years and should have kept it forever.

      I’d have to agree. There are times when mine frustrates me but overall it has been (and is) still a fantastic car. Of course, you’ve moved on to an S5 which is next on my “most wanted” list!

        arizona_audi replied 15 years, 7 months ago

        Well, aside from the inherent differences between older and newer, I guess that’s true of most any, at times. The S5 appealed to me because there are so few quattros with manual transmission, and there are so many 4-bodies on the road.

          I’ve always loved Coupes. Prior to the S4 I had a Coupe quattro 20V. Loved the looks of it and wanted to make an RS2 coupe out of it but that was back when used AAN engines were still pretty expensive to snap up and build so I sold it. I don’t miss the rather flexible chassis on the CQ or the stupid Hitachi injection stuff however.

            I come from a mentality of old Mustangs and GTOs, and the concept that a two-door ’57 Chevy is more desirable than a four-door, and so on. But I do miss having a usable back seat, even if it’s for groceries, at times. But it’s hard not to like the quattro Concept from the current Paris Auto…[Read more]

    Mine’s not a smell like hot coolant – just a hot smell as if it was starting to overheat a bit. I already replaced the expansion tank which had a slow leak so I know that smell. Let us know what you find.

    I also just replaced that 6″ long hose that connects to the hard line behind timing belt cover which feeds the turbo coolant. It is actually 10mm ID high temp hose but I got 7/16″ ID high temp transmission hose from local auto parts store and it works fine. As far as the burning oil […]

    I do think mine is somehow trans fluid related as it is a rather pungent smell. Not a hot/sweet smell like engine coolant. If yours smell like hot coolant, check the lines under the intake manifold. I did a timing belt job on a friend’s S6 once upon a time and when we were done […]

    Mine just smells hot since i changed the thermostat back to the original temp. Am waiting to see if it goes away after awhile. If you find a sneaky drip, let us know where it is so we can look too.

    Well, I thought I had found my boost leak on the hose leading into the moisture trap on the firewall but alas that wasn’t it. My car still whacks a big ‘ol virtual wall whenever I really give it the beans. I don’t think it is coil related since my are now almost all new. […]
