Let's see,
I finally got the H&R coilovers out of the basement and put them on. I got a set of density series control arms from 034 motorsports and put them on, as well. Then I put on front and rear sway bars from Hotchkis. It's like it's on rails now!
Here's an Audi tip.... After you do suspension stuff, and the ABS light is stuck on, and the car freaks out, check to see that your ABS wheel speed sensors are pushed in all the way.

Thanks for all your help Aeron!!!!!!!

Saw coolant flowing from under the car, so I know it was time to change out my coolant flange. Luckily I already had all the parts, so I busted into it. Since I was in there, and had to remove the EGR stuff to get to the flange, I decided to do an SAI/EGR delete and pulled out all all the extra lines and made my own EGR block off plate. Then, since I was already pulling that out I figured I may as well go ahead and install my 034 test pipe. All that's left is to tighten up a couple of turbo bolts I couldn't get to last night and plug some misc. lines and I should be good to go.

Can't get to this little guy with my sockets, so I may need to grind the edge of an old socket down to fit:

Hay everyone just joined the forum. A friend at work told me about it. Well anyway I just got an 02 Audi A6 2.7T and am looking forward to doing some work on it. Today just spent a hour and a half just cleaning the interior. The people that had it before me didn't take very good care of it. I am also looking forward to any suggestions of what I should do to it. Talk to you all later. :thumbsup:

Welcome, post up some pictures in the members car area. How do you want to use the car? If I were to take a stab at the standard list of things to do with it:

1. Maintenance items like timing belt, and cam seals.
2. Piggie Downpipes
3. Chip
4. Wheels
5. RS6 spoiler

But those are just the common places to start. Post some pics! :D

I am having an issue with the passenger window. If I roll it down when I go to roll it up I have to pull up on the back side of the window or else it binds up. Is there a way to fix it? If so what do I need to do?
