  • 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. […]

    Thumbnail I’ve been developing this conversion in my head for a number of years because I always thought that, eventually, our OEM coils would no longer be made and I wanted a back-up plan for my car. In the last four or five months, I noticed that I was getting some missing/bucking under WOT, and high […]

    FAQ by Ian Duff Note:This is NOT the procedure for infrared remotes. =============================================== Here’s how to get all the remotes to lock and unlock the doors. Which key goes where does not matter, since we’re reprogramming the remotes, not the keys (keys are not programmable, anyway). There is no correlation between key and remote, except for […]

    Audi does not mean for UrS driveshafts to be serviced, nor repaired. Audi does not provide individual parts of the driveshaft, but rather asks that you replace the whole thing, if anything goes wrong. Well, some clever folks o­n the q-list discovered that there is a BMW carrier bearing (p/n BMW 26 12 1 209 […]

  • Gents, My RS2’d S4 (28 psi boost) has developed a bit of a hiccup. Normally when this happens it means a coil is on the way out. Oddly, this behavior started after my fuel pump was replaced. I had a Pierburg pump in the car and all was well until it failed at a stop […]

  • Anyone else ever had an issue where your car smells like hot burning trans fluid or something along those lines but it doesn’t ever seem to drip onto the ground or make a mess under the car? It doesn’t appear to be engine oil. Valve cover is clean all the way around. Seems trans related […]

  • It has been brought to my attention by Dan Hussey ( @c4s6 ) that Internet Exploiter 8 is not allowing Avatar image cropping. IE8 users will either need to use Gravitar based profile Avatars or use a browser such as Firefox to upload and crop your Avatars. I’ll post an update here once a resolution for […]
