My car is leaking a good deal of oil suddenly and I think that either the oil pan or some piping has ruptured. Does anyone know what could be wrong or how much I should expect to pay to get my oil pan fixed.

What do you guys think would win? A turtle or a snail? I think the turtle would take it in a strait line, but the snail's lower center of gravity and its advantage in grip would outmatch the turtle on the turns. Seriously though, I do enjoy these comparisons, one of my all time favorites has to...

Give me a minute.

Thanks Yassen, I have not changed my ARB's, is there much benefit to that? What is the best set up to keep the car balanced between over and understeer? I know shadowline is the BMW term, but I was hoping someone knew where I could find blacked out window trim.

I installed H&R Srings and Bilstein Shocks and 18 inch RS4 rims on my 98 A4 2.8Q and the handling difference is amazing. It lowered the car more than advertised and now the lean and roll into corners is virtually gone. The grip of the car is greatly improved aswell. Money well spent. Also...

Let me recomend Toplineautomobile to anyone living in the bay area. They do excellent work and have a lot of experience with Audis.

Is it possible to check the condition of the cambelt without replacing it?

Go with 18's, 19's are too big for such a small car. The A3 was definitely not designed to run on 19's. To keep the total diameter of the wheel and tire close to that of the original for speedometer and gearing accuracy, you would need to fit such low profile tires that you would basically be...

No problem. I just got them installed today, but the alignment is not finished so I will be picking the car up tommorow. I went into the shop about 10 hours after I dropped off the car because I forgot my wallet and I was able to see the car with the new suspension and wheels on it. They are 18...

Thanks alot guys, I really appreciate all the help. I will talk to a dealer tommorrow about cost and labor.

Someone was telling me that the cambelt on the 2.8 will fail after 70,000 miles. Seeing as my car has 70,500 miles, I am very worried. How much does this damn thing cost to fix?

My car is in the shop getting H&R springs and bilstein shocks installed. I'll let you know what I think of them when I get my car back. I bought them from AWE tuning for about $659.00. Seeing as I have an a4 and yoh have an a3/s3, I don't know if they offer similar packages, but that price...

Has this been a problem for the 2.8?

Has anyone ever tried this? what improvements or drawbacks did you notice?

I am asuming that like me you drive your car pratically every day and are very familiar with the way it feels and drives. I think that maybe since we know our cars pretty well, we can feel the slight changes the filter makes to the way the car feels. By the way, how often do you have to clean...

I just bought and installed a K&N air filter for my 98 A4 2.8. I can't say that I am sure I feel any power gains, but it is a little louder. I think it might feel a little sharper, but that could be just a placeabo effect.

I have a set of 16 inch OEM wheels and tires that I have taken off of my 98 A4 2.8 Quattro. They are the basic 5 spoke design. If anyone needs an extra set of wheels, for winter perhaps? please let me know. If not, how much do you think I could get for them on ebay?

I have a 98 a4 2.8 quattro with 70,000 miles. The only problems I have had was a worn out clutch and the fact that it tends to burn a little bit of oil.

yeah, that makes sense, thanks htc.

Has anyone ever hear of Powerchips. I went to their website and was very impressed. I wanted to know if anyone had ever used one because the power gains they claim are pretty impressive and the company seems fairly creible. The advertised 207hp and 222torque for my 98 A4 2.8. This is more power...
