Hi, hope you dont mind me just jumping on the forums but i need some help, im going to purchase an Audi a4 tommorrow on a r reg, its very tidy and a good price, the problem is the piston rings are worn as ive done a compression test, im almost certain its not the head gasket as its only piston 1 and oil on the spark plug, its a big job but am capable and will put new headgasket (unavoidable) and cam belt and maybe re- seat valves, my problem is i cant seem to find any Piston rings on ebay or anywhere else, the engine is a 1.6 but everywhere just mentions A4 1.8 or A4 2.8, this is the first Audi ive done and please forgive me if ive just missed something obvious, i really hope you can help as ive fallen in love with the car and would hate not to buy her cus of parts, Also, if im not pushing my luck are there any pitfalls to watch out for, im going to do it with engine in, shes done 130000 miles and even my wifes getting jelous
