My A6 C5 build

[ruffrida]

Afternoon all.

With being new to the A6 seen I thought I would start a thread on my C5 1.9tdi pd130.

She is an old girl (2002) with plenty of miles (370,000 and counting).

I have only owned her for about a month, but have made some suttle changes to start with. Pics to follow, but for now this is how she looked when I first bought her.

As you can see, she had been euro-dubbed slightly. And very low on 17s.

Some things I like. Other defo not. But that's why I bought her. A good base to work on.

Wow What a difference.

Found a boost leak on the intercooler pipe. Now have lots of boost.

Picture is the egr and pipe work you can delete.

Thermostat may be tomorrows job. But found a water leak as well so that may be the temp gauge problem. Will see after a good run.
