RyM3rC Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Changing the diverter valve (or bypass valve, or recirculation valve) is a good thing. The older ones were crappy diaphragm type valves that were pretty junky. You may even get more powerz yo! Double power bonus if it's chrome or has an R on it.

Cheap insurance and allows you trouble free driving, especially with a chip. Fuel filter is something that isn't "required" often, but I will be doing mine soon, along with plugs. I just need to order them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiOn19s Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 +1 on diverter valve upgrade being a good thing. I upgraded to the factory 225hp TT model on my A4 some time ago and I think it needs replaced again. FWIW I'm usually VERY attentive to maintenance things but didn't do my fuel filter until 150k miles and never had an issue. Ran no different after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prodeje79 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 Thinking about getting these clear sidemarkers. Are these illegal or any other thoughts? Any other products I should consider? http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-B7_A4-Quattro-2.0T/Search/Sidemarker/ES8111/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVRINGS Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I don't think they are DOT, but I would do them for sure. A local friend got the and loves them. I heard they can be fun to put in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prodeje79 Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 The seller took the car to the dealer for one last total check-up etc as teh CPO does not transfer to me. The camshaft warranty does transfer though.... Should I have any concerns over this? This is good right? "Just an FYI, the dealer just replaced the hpfp and the cam follower today. The service advisor said that the original follower was actually in good shape (so it did not punch a hole into the follower) but there was an internal failure with the actual hpfp so they replaced that, and while at it, they replaced the follower as well. Car is pretty much set, it runs like a champ! " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
