Default Hallo meine Audi Freunde

Well I am new here, and with the experience I have had thus far I am sure you will hear lots of questions from me.

My name is mike and I am a mechanical engineer in Cincinnati Ohio.

So far I have had to:

Put in new valves. 3 new valve guides, timing job, water pump, new cam tensioners and seals. Frankenstein removal of pre cats along with relocation of O2 sensor to fool computer, welded in el cheapo main cats. full front suspension rebuild, New injectors (were leaky). Lots of new vacuum tubing, ..... and on and on and on.

Basically someone I knew neglected the crud out of the car and was going to tow it to a scrap yard for junk and I rescued it.

Now she drives great, handles great, and looks great. All I have left to do is fix the darn display so I can actually read it.

Welcome to the forum!

The title caught my eye, in my mother language. You seem to have done a lot of work, and I congratulate you on sticking thru it. Most car owners would have had it scrapped, from what I've seen in this city.

Hope all goes better from now on.




Nick
