    Nice cheap modification for you!!

    is it the plastic cover around the washer bottle and power steering tank? My 3.0 has that...is it not standard? I also have a cover over the battery area too?

    Quattro 'groan'

    I think I've started something here! To change the subject a bit, what tyres do people recommend? I had Kumho's on my old Audi which were ok for the price but I think my new ride deserves nothing but the best......ish. Cheers

    Quattro 'groan'

    Just wanted to check something with fellow quattro owners. I have a 3.0 quattro A4 and when I pull away with a lot of lock on the steering I can feel a really deep kind of vibration which seems to be coming from the 4wd system. It's very similar to my old X-trail when the diff locks were on. Is...

    2.6 quattro sport

    I made my own induction kit with bits of info I picked up over on the 12v develoment pages on audiworld.com. It was basically 2x 3" 90° elbows, about 16" of 3" alloy pipe a few jubilee clips and a cone filter. You then dump the stock plenum chamber and airbox. Along with the de-cat this really...

    2.6 quattro sport

    Hi Mate, I had a FWD one for about 6 years. Firstly the mileage shouldn't be a problem as mine was running great with 170k on the clock when I wrote it off. I always thought the engine seemed more than 150bhp but I never got it dynoed. It put an induction kit and de-catted it and that seemed to...

    3.0 Quattro MPG

    I think the G3 would set you back about £3k absolute minimum. But apparently with an exhaust, de-cat, chip and intake they can make about 340-350bhp.......S4 power in a sleeper(ish) car! http://www.pes-tuning.com/ It's $5300 which is about £2700 but they often do group buys and deals on...

    3.0 Quattro MPG

    Hi all, My first post here so be gentle with me. I bought a 3.0 A4 Quattro about a month ago and got my first chance to give it a good run from Middlesbrough to Gloucester and back this weekend. It's approx a 470 mile round trip. The first trip I used £75 of super unleaded (Tesco 99 octane)...
