Why not add some washers to the underside of the coil cover so at least some air flow can go over the coils?

I actually been looking at having spacers of some sort.

Got some exhaust gasket material to make new downpipe gaskets as Audi doesn't do them anymore





Definitely not paranoid of getting it dirty



P.S. Yes, I know I have the cover on and it will shorten the life of coils

Thanks, there is only so much I can do with engine still in but doing what I can

Nice job Janis

[hunker7]

Intake is going back on tomorrow, still waiting for crank seal, oil pump seal and then the rest can go on

[hunker7]

Nice, should be back on the road pretty quickly then, and looking tidy under the bonnet too

Plan is to get her back and running in next 2 weeks, but that depends if parts arrive on time. Fingers crossed.

Leaving the internals alone. Don't have any reason to touch it for now. I'll do that job once I decide to go more powaaaaah and can do rods at the same time.

Wow, that's a result!

Is the head coming off to do the rings though? Or are you just doing the cambelt etc and leaving the motor alone?

All thanks to you Hope it runs even better now when it's all done

No worries matey, glad I could help out

Been going through service history, and came across a receipt that says head have had a rebuild @144k which would explain why it's in such a good nick.

I am pretty sure it is the first time I've owned UrS4 and it works.

Good stuff

So this is how she's looking now



Did some sandblasting today, not fun but had to be done. This is just one bit
