I think I paid just north of $125 for LCD refresh on the trip computer. Very fast turnaround of the unit... got it back maybe 10 days after I mailed it.

Why would you replace your clutch every 60k? My first lasted over 100k before I replaced it, and even then, it was still good to go for awhile.

$2,000 is on the far low end for what you described...
I'd say that $2,000 is TB/WP parts and labor only. Unless you are doing all of the above stuff yourself, then that's another thing.

Hey, how is it positioning your e-Codes? Mine won't go R/L for anything.
R/H side is spraying roadsigns but not much up the road. I've tried everything.
Some say that the screws are very ****ty and often fail or don't work to begin with.

I specifically ordered my '98.5 A4 w/o heated seats.
Who needs 'em in Phoenix? Waste.
Now, chilled seats would be a great option.

I'll have to get under it again to pinpoint the leakage;
Just seems to be the whole RH side of the engine, as before in the prior leakages. Seems to be chronic on the RH side, and it's not cam seals.
