in my 98 had to replace radiator, power steering pump, and my secondary air pump, my sunroof would randomly open at times, oil seals were going bad, no cruise. Haven't had a problem with my 00, but the guy like worshiped this thing.

 

At least we dont have to worry about this happening

also, for those of us who like to pick fights, DO NOT show the punks your car

 

Well...

I think the biggest thing on mine has been having to replace the the steering rack and the front wheel bearings and boots, as well as the right joint but thats only because i ran on the thing with no grease in it for who knows how long.

My "non recall adressed" problems include the sunroof switch and the middle LCD display. I figure they skimped on top knotch diplays since that kind of thing was pretty new on a car in the mid-late 90's.

I remember everyone having problems with that ignition sensor. I cant remember the exact name but it caused poor idling and was almost a certain failure on all b5's.

Our cars are starting to become dinosuars. Im going to be so happy when i get a new job and i can put this thing away and only use it when it rains. Im hoping to start commuting to work on a bike.

does anyone here love Buell sportbikes as much as me?

 

oil leak; second time to replace gasket! power steering fluid leaking A4 2.8 2001

 

impressive with the mpg, but how much did that list cost you??

 

Man my cupholder does not work anymore either. The center display has like 60 % life of visability. I have chaned both front leaking differential seals. Mass air flow sensor.

 

Ha! my car has the same four problems as yours Splbasshead, except it's my rear diff that's leaking. There's a guy on Audizine that can fix our center displays.

 

really? can you bring that thread up with the guy that can fix center displays? thanks

 

This is the one and only problem I have encountered with my '97 b5. It's currently at 120k and driving like a champ. I haven't had it check to find out if it's the module because ABS still works, but I'm going to get it taken care of soon. Those bulbs in the dash are going to burn out.

 

Haha, I don't usually go past one. Sometimes I'll set it to two for a few minutes, but that's it. I should try 6 to see what it's like.
