yaaaaaaay ! not counting fluid changes / brakes / plugs etc ...
& not counting mods...

- waterpump / timing belt...
- replaced leaking auxillary water pump.
- replaced cracked coolant reservoir
- malfunctioning engine coolant temp sensor
- performed Decarb treatment (this was a joke & waste of $$ [:@] )
- Ignition control Module
- control arms
- engine mounts
- CV boot


*** still to be determined if I need a new ECU... [:@][&:][:'(]


I dont drive the car aggressively every day [:-]-
2000 S4 roughly 92K on the clock...
I've had the car for a little over a year & a half...
as for the work - I've gone from indies, to stealerships, to DIY for the easy stuff...


Both of you have some of the longest replies in my thread yet you avoided my question completely by not saying how much you spent on all that stuff

Good point. I also remembered one more item I have yet to install.

2000 1.8t quattro now at 115k miles
timing belt, water pump, cam seals- $650 labor and parts
both rear wheel bearings- $160 each
all 4 axle to diff seals- total was near the $200 with labor
control arms- $70I've only replaced one so far.
ABS module- $50 used from an 01 S4
cracked wiper fluid reseviour- $7, epoxy on the cracks
coolant temp sensor- $15 plus some extra G12coolant I already had
coil packs- $120 from ECS tuning and 15 minutes
fuel tank sending unit- $70 from ECS tuning. Still needs to get installed.

2003 Audi A4 1.8T 44k miles:

New Clutch + Labor: $680

1 New Tire: 89$ (Shipped)

Other than that, get the oil changed every3-4k.

I bought the car at 38k, and have put 6k on it since october... I put over 2k miles on it from a trip to Arizona and back.. I live in Dallas. So techniqually I should only have 41-42ish. =(

But so far so good, no major issues.

about 1000, but thats because i bought the car for cheap because of some problems and some parts i messed up and the rest is just preventative maintenence, so from what people say that its always in the shop, not true since i take mine to getstuff i brok fixed or replace something before it goes out.
