AUDI A4 | B5 | 8D 1996 - 2001 FAQ Frequently Asked Questions and Common Problems Thread Collection

The FAQ is being *MOVED* to the Wiki. Please do not add to this FAQ, please add to the wiki instead. Thanks!

Welcome to the Audi A4|B5|8D FAQ, started by members of the Audiworld B5 Board from all over the world!

Please check out this FAQ for commonly asked questions and problems that you might encounter while owning and working on your beloved A4. From write-ups on how to perform basic maintenance to performance upgrades and places to buy those from; most topics should be covered by this collection.

If you have a good technical write up or some technical information that has not been posted yet, feel free to post your article into their respective groups throughout the FAQ.

TWO RULES:
- Please refrain from asking questions, flaming people or posting a thank you in this collection. Post those on the main board!

- Try to keep links linking to other sites to a minimum as these will at some point become dead links. The same goes for using pictures from someone elses picture poster; those will be gone at some time as well.

I am sure that WE (<-- that means teamwork) can make this an awesome informational tool for everyone in the future that crosses the paths with the FAQ.

Thanks to everyone that has made a contribution so far! Without any of those posts this would be just another boring thread!
