I wouldn't exactly call it a beater. I will probably baby this. I've always wanted an S4 but I love the allroad and the allroad has the same 2.7T engine! Here's a quick pic from the dealers.

Will have more soon. Probably new clutch going in tomorrow and chipping it. Car's pretty beefy!!

John@Motorcepts 02-25-2010 07:21 PM

Very hard to get into gear sometimes. Weird. Mebbe the shifter links??? Iono.

I had a 1999 Audi A6 Avant AutoMAGIC 2.8. Now, this is a 2002 Audi Allroad 6 speed 2.7T. Twin turbo. Put K04 on it and I'll be running around 450 to the fly. Couple things here and there and close to an RS6 performance. Nut it's my daily driver so...heh heh heh. Drives great in the snow yesterday. Adjustable air suspension. Lowest I believe is 5.9 inches off the ground and highest is 8.2 inches???

Hope so. It might be the tranny fluid. I tried STOMPING in the clutch instead and it works great.

When did you get married and how many kids do you have?

TakmaN 02-26-2010 10:40 AM

2.7T engine... drool...! Does it have the same thousands of problems as the 2000-2002 Audi S4s? I was really set on one as a DD but it seems like these cars spend more time in the shop than our E60s...

Not married yet. Waiting for a red envelope from you still!

Honestly, the problems would be simple. I checked. The 2.7T has came out for a while and simple things like the diverter valve needs to be changed, the Y boot (throttle body boot), needs to be changed. K04 upgrades aren't as expensive as you think. K04 with upgraded clutch, intercoolers, etc probably about $4000 installed? Or $5000? K04 are RS4 turbos. Then u'll have about 450 at the crank and not to mention u can add meth.

But DEFINITELY get a 6 speed. Audi autoMAGICS likes to play some disappearing magic tricks for you.

Yeah I think I did. I accidentally pulled the splash guard underneath the car and yanked it down. probably go caught in the snow or something and during the mini snow storm, I had to find a garage, but everyone was closed. Thank god Goodyear was opened and they charged me half an hour labor plus tax which was $52 to remove the splashg guard, clean off the snow and ice that was stuck, and remount it with screws. The clips were all gone. LOL

Hell yea :twoup: Dont they have this in a convertible too?? :confused:

John@Motorcepts 03-03-2010 12:35 AM

I might throw some 19 VMR V710 Matte Black on the car this summer. Not sure. Mebbe next summer. Definitely deleting the muffler, getting a flash tomorrow. I already upgraded the Diverter Valves and the Throttle Boot to Samco. Total cost was $340 and a DIY.

I'll need new brakes soon. I might also get the coil spring suspension conversion. This is gonna drop me back about $1500. The air suspension is getting there. I go to my car and the front looks slammed in the morning. Mebbe the pothole the other night did it. I'll keep checking it.
