Here's the images bro - just replace IMG with IMAGE By the way, not to threadjack, but how's the 540 been for you? I came close to buying my A4 a year and a half ago, but held out because I wanted a six-speed 540i, but then my same A4 came back up for sale for $4500 less, and I jumped on it. I'd still like to get one though - how has the car been for you overall?

 

i love the 540 .. just a completely different car from the a4 ..hp, torque, size,and of course the look ..you can't compare an A4 with a E39 540 .. not in the same league ..maybe to a3 series .. i must say i am very pleased with the audi's interior and quality .. top notch ... but for the performance itlacks ..

E39 from 1997 to 2003 prices are dropping like crazy ..i would suggest checking out the bimmerforums section E39 ..or bimmerfest .. bimmerforums gets more action .. Typical maint. issues on the E39 are:

radiator failure - radiator is plastic
fan clutch
bushings on the lower and upper control arms
wheel bearings - some do some don't
sway bar end links
CPS (cam shaft position sensor )
cup holder- breaks all the time
but check out the FAQ section .. and bmwtips.com

if you keep up with the maint. you should have no problems.I just recently did a complete suspension upgrade to Koni FSD's and Eibach Pro Kit and changed my entire front supension .. car drives like its brand new .. shoot me an PM if you have any other questions ..

thanks for the time for posting pics .. didn't realize that .. bimmerforums .. you just cut and paste ..

 

I'd pass on anything VVME has to offer. Their product is lousy and their customer service stinks.

 

The product is actually quality. I and others speak from experience. The wires, fittings, the ballast and bulbs themselves are not poor quality. You had a bad experience. Of all the people who have ordered, you are the only one to report bad things that Im aware of. Though, you should be prepared for shitty customer service when ordering something directly from another country.You cant expect animpressive return policy for something that needs to pass through customs to get from A to B.

 

And I bet my dog that you wouldn't get much better customer service from an American company. Honestly, that customer service is sh*tty is a universal truth. He had a bad experience, but it's probably as possible that it was user error that caused the failure of his bulb (accidentally got some oil on the bulb maybe) as it is that it was a poor quality product...especially given the fact that that hasn't been the experience of all of the others with the exact same product, myself included.

 

Reminds me of a recent game of scrabble I played...........

 

tell the bartebnder to cut you off

 

Yeha! "Bartebnder!" No mroe for hi!m

 

i am on the wifes laptop and the keys are too small and close

 

Well...It's been since Dec. 3rd that I ordered. That doesnt worry me...you guys all said it would take a while. My dad tried to call the company and there was a bizarre recording saying that they could not recieve our call unless we were on some list haha. Also...it looks like the company is trying to dodge tax laws....I coppied this from their FAQ section:
