Will hopefully get some better photos on location this weekend. But here's a taster

Absolutely stunning Mike Your Avant has to be one of the best examples left

Spark plug change

Been meaning to change my spark plugs for a while. I've never changed plugs in my life before, but i'm glad i tried as it's a piece of cake

Coilpack cover off with 4 bolts (10nm):



Also had to remove this part of the throttle mechanism held on by 2 bolts (10nm):


Then remove cover:


All looks to be in good order. I checked the torque before removing them as i've heard problems of plugs coming loose. They were all at least 30nm which is correct.


Old plugs looking past their best:

I realise this is all very simple to most on here, but hopefully it helps someone. Also helps me in future to remember what i did last time

I was going to replace my air filter with a genuine paper Audi one. However after taking out the K&N that's in there i found the Audi one wouldn't fit This is because my air box is modified to RS2 spec and the ABY filter is too deep to fit. So i just left the K&N in.

Fuel filter next

You're not telling me you like those rs4 rims over S8 avus!? Wait until I get some decent photos up then decide.[/QUOTE]

Yep, 'fraid so

[Michael S2]

mike, i'll be up at the folks' place on sunday/ monday and hopefully with the quattro.

let me know if you're around and i'll drop by.

I should be around, hopefully will be washed by then. I feel a photo or two might be needed.

Looking really good Mike!!

(Sorry to say this, but my fav photo is #66 of 'Dest's Ruby Red Avant' )

You know you have problems when you go away for a weekend mountain biking and end up only at the pub. Wake up next morning with the worst hangover in years and go and buy a set of avus.

Only time the bike came out the boot was to rearrange it to get the wheels in too!

Looks great on the Avus
