[Acidburn]

not the s2 but the urq, uploading pics now for my thread.

[willg54]

Yes!

Painted lots and lots and lots of parts and cleaned about 40% of the engine bay. Can't wait to get on to the fun stuff!

[bertman]

Cleaned all the crud and filth off my calipers and then fitted new brembo discs and a set of ds2500s,nothing major compared to some but still its an excuse for a beer or five.
Got to order the take away curry now

Didn't work on my S2 but did on my newly bought 80 saloon 16V quattro. Sorted out the wiring in the engine bay (some poeple shouldn't be allowed to work on cars ) Resecured the fuel lines, straightened out the fuel tank strap, drilled and tapped the strap mounting bolts. Its an on going project and now the weather is better it will be getting worked on a lot more.

24/7, But in contrast my S6 is cool.

[benntenn67]

yep - well .... replaced a fog lamp bulb & a squirt of white grease on the door hinges

[mcandmar]

Stripped engine of all accessories in order to remove cylinder head, only to have my plans foiled by the infamous 15mm downpipe bolt, god dammit

[newsh]

Finished re-route of petrol pipes round battery tray on the coupe and started it up

Went to go out in the avant but engine stalled after 30secs, the fuel pump has died

Went to Halfrauds for some roofrack bits on the bike and took the long way back

Spent some time tidying the coupe engine bay, removing unwanted hoses and clips and cleaning small bits and hard to reach areas with an old toothbrush

[Ian Simmonds]

No, unless filling it up with Super-Unleaded counts? (143.9 a litre too).

[rj scotty]

Ive switch to 95 ron for the time being as the s2 is being used for work, a situation I am less than pleased with

Feels down on power as a result.

Still, I reckon I'm the fasted mobile electrician in the UK
