I e-mailed the guys @ VAG parts twice last week with both my personal and work email address reguarding parts for the cam belt change on my ABY and a mates UrS4 AAN! No reply? Are they just usually busy or do i need to lern a special language or sommat? I used the link on the web page so i surley can't have got there e-mail wrong, could I?:confused:

Glen,

We are extremely busy right now, sorry... I'm working on Sundays mails now. Matt here has been away for 3 days so we have a back log to catch up on.

I just looked through all my mails, couldn't see your one, but then we have martyn@, paul@, sales@, matt@ and orders@ I only get the martyn@ ones, so it could of gone to any of the other four!!

When ever you need anything priced, just send me a PM on this forum, I look here once a day, so you'll get a much faster response! favoritism :-)

I'll post the prices here for you in 5 minutes.

Always making excuses Martyn! LOL
But on a serious note, like the man said just PM him and things happen a lot faster!!

I think Paul should pull his weight!

What do you think Martyn!

[Martynf]

Glen,

Here you go:

Both cars use exactly the same parts, so it's 2x these:

Belt 054 109 119H @ £20.51+vat
Tensioner 054 109 479A @ £37.26+vat
Crankshaft bolt 034 105 229A @ £5.15+vat

Total for TWO sets including delivery is £158.67 including vat and delivery. Retail on these two sets would be £253.75.

PM me if you'd like these Glen.

What you saying then Doug?

Cheers Tom, I think I pulled Paul's back today . He has been packing for the last two days on his own!! I'm too busy with Matt away, so he had to do everything himself, and..... I had come in yesterday the mother of all the worst possible delvieries to pack

I supplied to a friend in the USA:

One RS4 left hand side, yes, left side of the car! from the tail lights to the front door.
One right hand side, see above!
Two rear doors
Two metal inner rear wheel arches
Two wheel arch liners
One rear bumper

That is a cow to pack and send to the US, the side panels are soooo long and awkard to pack!! Bless him :-)) cheers Paul!

Anyhow, Glen, my apologies, it's just the workload at the moment....

I gotta applaud Martyn, his efforts to please us have been outstanding...

[Martynf]

Hmm, busted... 23 hours and 58 minutes is about right! but I do run dual monitors, so leave it on nearly all the time, a little distraction from a billion mails a day :-)

Cheers Mik!

Martyn, I gotcha beat in the monitor department...here's a link...

[Martynf]

MY GOD! I want it!!!!

That's an F16 head up cockpit you got there! did I read right... three monitors from one card?? Tell me how of wise one!!!

I run two AGP cards on NT2000 Pro with a 19CRT main, then 18.1 TFT. Are we talking a special card that can run three monitors? then the matox with dual monitor ports on the card? can windoze 2000 Pro handle that many monitors??? what can I run? how many rather... and would I have to replace the existing AGP's I have?

My turn to ask you lots :-) no rush, got to get back to work now!!

With multi-monitor setups you're mainly limited to whether the mobo can handle the cards, the cards themselves, the OS and the driver software.

My rig was purpose built with that in mind because I do a lot of graphics and web work, and the multiple monitors are an amazing help. The rig itself is built around a P4 on a board with a very fast chipset and lot's of memory so that I don't have problems clogging up buses.

The main card is the Parhelia which is made for up to three monitors and does it better than any other non-pro graphics card. That runs the bottom three. Then I have a G450 dual monitor PCI card which runs the top two. If your system can handle it, you can plug as many video cards in as you want, and run as many monitors off them as you want, provided the OS and drivers can handle it. Obviously you can only use one AGP card, but there are some kick-**** PCI cards out there.

I haven't tried anything other than WinXP, so there may be other OS's that can handle it well, but WinXP handles it superbly.

Yeah and Paul nearly sliced his fingers off from those sodding panels.........not only that but he got covered in ***** from all the dust on them too
Stiil,it's all packed now and ready to rock n roll to the good old US of A

[Martynf]

Mik, I just didn't know that stuff existed, wow! two monitors is very useful, but I could still do with more... this has given me inspiration! cheer!!


Paul, you got it done though dude, well done!! not a nice one I know
