    Been grinding down inside wheel arches front. Thinking about getting a car rotisserie and take the whole car under, its not in that bad shape but I feel like it needs to be done

      Not recommended probably but works for me
      Do You still run with this "mod" ?
      Dunno if it's critical but it should be a 1k resistance between center and outer contact-point.

        Yes, the mod is still there but not might be there. Is it a problem to run with it?

          don't know if it's a problem but measured mine and all have approx 1k "internal" resistance, guess it is there for a reason ?

            Read somehwere it was there earlier to not interfer with AM radio frequencies but im not sure why, Ive seen rotors with or without.
            But I might go coil on plug solution anyway. havent had any problems running with this rotor, its been exceptionally smooth on everything (but of course everything is changed out so comparing this to some old car Ive had isnt correct either). Only had a s4 2.2t earlier with lots of ignition problems, but this car was utter trash

              The car looks like this at the moment so it's gonna be a while before it's on the road again

                Yea, propably works ok, guess You don't listen to AM these days ...

                Thinking of coil on plug myself, do You have part# for "plugs"​/connectors needed ?

                  Think I will run it with maxxecu or ecumaster. The typical TFSI / or Audi R8 stuff. Think it works fine, coils are quite cheap as well if they break down.
                  Not too fan of having coils on top of the engine due to heat and vibrations, would rather have coils stacked in the rear as people used to do.. but I guess it works fine

                    Isn't TFSI coils "on top" ok if using 7A or 3B valve cover ? AAN with cover will probably "boil"'em ...
                    with coil's stacked in the rear is propably LS1(/LS2) coils ? got a set of those on a S4 I'm going to part and probably use them on a later project

                      I ran the LS1/LS2 coils on my s4, it was quite nice solution.

                        On my 3B I use 034 high output coils mounted on the strut brace, means I get to keep the 3B cam cover

                          do you have any pics?
                          wondering if it was the same solution I had on my s4 2.2t, bought it from 034 but its like 10 years ago.. time flies

                              Yeah this is the better way in my opinion, looks a bit similar to the ones I used to have.

                                Lars, will you remind those Bentley publishers? I think that they will have nothing more to say, but maybe it work out with that bentley manual. Thanks
