Oh is that all? Bullshit! Don't even get me started. You've replaced more parts on your Audi in any given year than I have in the last 8 years I've had my S4. ha!

 

Oh please start naming them all! And that could very well be because I actual fix, replace shit when they go bad (Axle ABS ring being the exception, but who needs ABS anyway, and bumper is a little fucked but I'm not about to buy a new RS4 bumper)

 

I'll help you, things that I replaced because they failed:

 

1) Valve cover gaskets

2) Clutch pedal sensor

3) Aux water pump (just needed a new seal but i replaced it anyway)

4) EGT sensor

5) O2 sensor

6) Water Pump

7)......that's all I can remember

Okay, I don't have time to get out the list, but off the top of my head I'll add a few... Axle, brakes, control arms, tie rod ends, axle again, whatever hose that was that ripped, gauge cluster, axle yet again... wheel bearings...

I broke my axle doing donuts, and the other one broke cause the boot was torn and I didnt know so it eventually broke. Brakes? Wheel bearings? Tie rods? Those are wear items. Gauge cluster is different, it didnt break, the pixels just kinda made it hard to read :lol:

The B5's problem now is that it's a $40K+ car, that can now be had by people working at BK. Shit's not going to get taken care of properly, and those people will bitch about it because it costs more money to maintain than the 83 corolla they had before it.

 

hahaha. Yep they may be cheap to buy, but maintenance is no joke on these things. Mine has been super reliable. This is also my 3rd B5 S4 and 4th B5 chasis car.

 

The new Coupe Quattro looks sick so far. 5 cyl. turbo is FTW. I will buy one a few years down the road if they are decently priced.

So far for me I've done

 

1) o2 sensors

2) rear wheel bearings

3) front control arm kit, sway bar links

4) one axle

5) EGTs are next, thats it. No issues with anything else and I'm at 143k miles original turbos are strong as can be.

The Concept uses the underpinnings of the current Audi RS5 which we think is a good thing. Power output for the Quattro Concept is 408hp and 354 ft-lbs of torque mated to a six-speed manual transmission. Power is directed to the ground through the concepts Quattro torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system with a 40:60 rear based power split.

You again?

 

I'd think I might like that big opening in the front better if it had something split it horizontally... (insert mom joke)

 

Did they pull some jagged-stealth from the newer lamborghini designs, or are thhey just melding into the same company?
