Yep. All the options for a 2000 like nav and heated seats.

Plus some other goodies like APR 2 mod chip, Forge DV's, H&R coilovers, ABT catback.

Latest KBB on my 2000 with 115k miles...$12-14k...anyone want a good car?

The mileage didn't kill the price as much as I thought - 78k mileage showed between $15-16k. I would have figured that depreciation would have been more mileage based.

Looking for something...

Re: Stud remover

Looks like a stud - just take out it with a stud remover. If not that, dremel it flush and start drilling out.

AWE site has comparison - a little difference - but price is steep

They have flow and temperature drop comparison between stock, RS4, and AWE. The real gain is between RS4/AWE and stock.

Problem is the RS4 can be found on ebay for $700. Doesn't have the...

I've replaced at least two - this one has lasted the longest.

16486 - Mass Air Flow Sensor (G70): Signal too Low

Background is my MAF popped off the air box and I ran around for 2 days before I figured it out. I hooked it back up and reset the codes. But...

Ok - the K03 tried to commit suicide during the past few days -

CEL went off two days ago - reseting via battery unhook didn't work.

Got the shareware version of VAG (old lap top died long ago and lost the original software codes) to find out what fault code. ...

Another into the 100k club - extended warranty is up -

Brought the car in with 99,960 miles to Miramar Audi. Ended up paying $500 for $3,000 worth of work. Nothing major - just trying to get everything out of the warranty.

Which does play a small part. The casting process makes the steel stronger around the hole (the alignment of carbon/steel crystalline structure) - as opposed to machined holes which are made into an...

The cast has a higher yield strength at the location because the steel (iron/carbon) "crystals" are able to align themselves with the hole. Also, the drilling process probably causes micro cracking...

Oil is coming from somewhere - problem that bad won't go away on its own

Check the PCV spider at the back of the engine. Its corrugated black plastic. See if its full of oil.

Do the pressure test - check everything

Remember, the entire block gets presurized when boosting, so if a beather is blocked - you've got 10psi pushing oil out the path of least resistance.

Only problem is you might not be able to...
