I haven't looked at mine in detail yet, but I would check to see if it is easily removable by taking out a couple of screws so that it can be washed and then reinstalled.

Is that the 3.0 engine? I'm not familiar with that location for the oil filter as I have a 1.8T.

+1 on Gerhard. He's a very low-key guy and is easy to work with, but remember they're not giving these vehicles away. Bought my Q5 through him over a year ago.

I just did this before the weekend trip up to the mountains using a safety pin. It's thicker than a needle and worked for me. It takes patience to get them in the right spot, but it is doable.

Audi has a decent display downtown in Civic Center Park during the big air show. They've got a white v10 R8 spyder on display that is worth checking out if you haven't seen one. At the very least,...

Do you have a picture? I recall all the fittings to be the same when I changed my filter. Any chance the fitting you're referring to is a replacement?

Rather than looking at the arms, look at the blades themselves. If they look like a standard wiper blade then they are not the aeros. The aeros are a one piece design that has a pretty drastic...

I upgraded to the Aero style arms and blades a couple years ago on my '02 A4, and I can say that it was worth every penny. They work much better than the old style, and their design makes them much...

Mobil 1 is fully synthetic. I think by 'regular' Reggie meant 'typical'. I've been using M1 0w-40 in my Audis for years as well. And no, it is not throwing money down the toilet, it is critical in...

There's no volt meter on the B6. Only a battery warning light, which doesn't tell you when your battery won't hold a charge any more. In fact I think the only time I've seen it lit is if I stall...

Yes, you have to take off the wheels and peel the wheel liner from the area where the guards are being applied. You don't have to remove the liners completely though.

Not experienced with this job on the Audi, however I will say that on other vehicles it's easier to just replace the whole half shaft than to change the boots, as I guess you've already discovered. ...

Yes, I put part of it on a card to earn miles. As you said, the dealer had a max that they would allow me to put on the card. I can't remember what the max was though, not as much as I wanted.
