    Need to test air springs on 03 Allroad - can I inflate each individually with external compressor?

    So I'm looking at an 03 Allroad that the owner says is has dropped as low as it can go and the suspension won't inflate. The car is about 2 hours away so not a quick drive. I'd like to know if I could disconnect each spring from the onboard pump and use my own compressor and try inflating each...

    Diesel Engine transplant needed for 98 A6 2.8L: What engine should I look for?

    Thanks for the advice. I always had a desire for the 2.7TT gas power engine, so I thought the diesel would be a great engine. I've been trying to find a place that sells diesel in the states, but haven't. Any suggestions as to where I could look? what about the UK? Thanks

    Diesel Engine transplant needed for 98 A6 2.8L: What engine should I look for?

    I have a 98 Audi A6 that I like enough to thinkabout an engine transplant instead of buying a VW TDI (not to mention the Audi is much more comfortable!!). I want to do this because I will be producing my own biodiesel, so my fuel will be much cheaper (to a tune of $2,000+ per year). I don't...
