After a week of calling Pipex every day to find out whats happened with my broadband, eventually getting through to a second line guy, who put me through to third line support... Oh yes mr sutherland, BT have been looking at it, you need to change your password. Oh, that still doesnt work mr sutherland? I will call you in two weeks when you get home from business... WTF?
Anyway, for sh1ts and giggles i decided to reset my router (after trying it elsewhere - worked - and trying others here - didn't) and do a line auto test, it said PPPoE... OK, for the hell of it i'll let it try. (No mr sutherland definately PPPoA) bing, got my net back
Obviously with Pipex being bought by Tiscali, and then by Talk Talk, the setting needed changed but they havent bothered to tell anyone, including themselves... Idiots.
Back on topic....
Now I have net I can look for bit again
So far the list is:
Head Bolts (Aelred)
Gasket set (pos Aelred too)
Clutch, sachs (dunno)
Bearings (dunno)
Rods (dunno)
Timing Chain (audi)
Got a couple other bits and bobs to do at same time but if you guys want to recommend the person you got your stuff from then feel free

It should be set to PPoA VCMUX encapsulation if you are using a DSL modem only regardles of the provider. PPoE is for connections to a DSL modem via Ethernet.Comment

Yeah I thought that too, but it's working...
It has always been on PPPoA but suddenly stopped working. It works on PPPoE with my modem router thing, no wireless, just one Ethernet port.Comment

Alright mate, hows the hunt for bits going?
my A4 belt tensioner let go and done 10 valves, a cam pulley and wudruff key also, yours ok?
Euro car parts do valves for about a tenner each if your stuck.
any more news on the steel gaskets? new to audi`s so cant comment but is it just ABY or were they in AAN`s etc?

AFAIK 3Bs and therefore pos early AAN had paper, and ABY ADU and more than likely AAN had steel. Mine is one of the last ABYs and has a factory gasket which is deffo not all steel, there are parts where it is starting to erode the asbestos in the water channels.
I got valves from David Falconer Engineering in Aberdeen.
I am gonna order a headset from the local factors (Dingbro) for now for the seals etc and use an OE head gasket and ARP studs. When I get the turbo I will use a comp reducing gasket likely from Doug (MRC).
The main thing is the clutch and rods. I need to give Aron a shout for rods but need to find a UK supplier of SRE clutch as that will be whats holding me up to get it back on road.
I was going to keep it off the road til all the bits were done but all the bits will cost more than i expected!
Oh, my cam gear and crank sprocket are ok, although the harmonic dampener is naffed, although i found one laying in the spare room i must have bought ages ago!Comment

Mike,
Will drop you an email, but Peter Chimes at Sitrling Audi is superb to deal with, enthusiast himself and insanely helpful. If only Aberdeen was the same.
Hopefully see you next time in mid august
