What do people think of the S3 8P as a replacement to the A4 B6 as toying with getting one.....from our perspective. It would be a early 07/08 one, but would mod it obviously. Not sure how much I would get for mine either.

has anyone changed the tensioner of the aux belt on an AVF engine. Mine has the late, spring wound tensioner that unlike the earlier shock a sober type. Main question is how I lock the tensioner so I can remove it , as can't seem to find a hole to put a locking pin in when tension is taken off...

Well been noticing over the last few days a rattling/squeek noise like a worn bearing I guess coming from the front of the engine and from also inside the car, and is more vocal when the car is at idle and warmed up. When the AC is turned off the noise disappears which makes me think my AC...

Well I have been offered a set of Avant S-line seats in black/grey cloth and wondering if it is really worth the hassle of converting the rear to folding in my saloon with the lack of spare time I have these days and also the minor difference in front seats. I have the black cloth sport...
