Re: 201motels garage
Just a little update on the 2000 A6 2.7t
The turbos are bad i'm sure but I noticed if I drive it normally and don't get on it hard it wont smoke. The car drives beautifully too. So now it's my new daily and i'm pretty happy.

Have fun with that turbo job! Haha. Gotta drop the engine down to do them.

Yes i'm well aware that the engine needs to be removed to service the turbos. Not going to be doing that though. It's running great right now and only smokes under full boost.

Re: 201motels garage
Thanks. And no sadly it's not the supercharged model. Those came a few years later. 1997 is year 1. It has a 4.0L V8 rated at 290hp.

U got a fancy jump box? Hows it work?
It's not how fast you go. It's how well you go fast.
