    Time to say goodbye....

    After nearly 5 years, about 15K and one failed MOT too many I have condemned Gwen to the great flatbed in the sky.....
    I have replaced her with a run out B5 S4 that is very tasty :mischeif: but with a little person pending (very) and the UrS4 just losing the will to live, an executive decision has been made. I have some interesting interior/ Carbon trims bits and bobs which I shall put on the forum plus a rare twin exhaust set up

    Its been fun, the forum has been great and no doubt I shall remain a member.

    Thanks and best wishes to all

            Let the spending begin with the 2.7T. You know this is a ordinary sight with these...

              That is the main reason that a B5 S4 or even an allroad doesn't excite me. Have an engine or turbo issue. First instruction: "Remove engine from engine bay"

                Urban myth #4327432:
                The engine must be removed to do any job on a B5 S4

                  Maybe you can change the spark plugs without removing the engine..?

                    I know, I know, but compared to the URS4, I am hoping to spend more time in the car as opposed to fixing it!

                      just wondering,... would your twin exit exhaust be adapted to fit 1996 AEL 2.5 Tdi C4 A6 quattro Avant? :mischeif:

                          I had a Tdi Quattro Avant and the exhausts were very similar, even the front section with the 2 cats.

                            I fitted a standard AAT downpipe to get rid of the cats, then removed the centre boxes, it sounded well.
