What up everybody its been forever since I have been on here. Anyways dont ask me how but lask week my motor threw a rod, its dead. What is my best course of action? All I need is a new motor but Audi wants $17,000 for one. What should I do, does anyone know of where to get a new motor cheaper?

 

ebay or junk yards. most run $2k range

 

Sorry to hear about your car man. Have you checked out this place in upstate NY? http://www.shokan.com/.
Maybe you can find a decent price on a motor with low miles.

 

Im sorry to hear this!!!! either find a junkyard orrr set it on fire and report it stolen! but get away with it

 

How did that happen?

 

No idea, even Audi doesn't know how. Their techs looked at it for 2 days and they are stumped. I was on the freeway doing 60 at about 2500 rpm then BAM!!!!! I was actually on my way to Audi have a check engine light checked out

 

what was the cel for? you dont even have that much done to your car. keep me posted

 

cell said missfires cylinder 1,2,3 and random misfire. The car ran fine and didn't misfire at all all new plugs and coilpacks too, like 2 months old.

 

is that a typo?!? audi wants seventeen thousand dollars for a new engine? what's it made of, platinum?

 

17,000.... thats hella ridiculous..

no way
