Default Damn, so the WP grenaded itself? I guess rapid loss of coolant at highway speeds = SOL huh?
The new KIA's are pretty good, should be plenty reliable for you + good warranty.

Default Sorry to hear.. This is an all too common topic... I wish Audi woudl do something about this.....
instead, they just ignore that their engines have design items that when things go wrong, become catastrophic failures.

Told you silver wasn't the fastest.

My buddy has a silver A4, he'd probably be interested in the front lip. I'll have him email you.
