What to do, what to do
Hey all, I have a black A4 1.8 turbo Q 1996 with Saffron leather seats and woodgrain interior. It's time to start modding the engine I think. What should I do. My engine has done 140,000km. Should I get a new car or do this up? Any suggestions on performance for these cars would be greatly appreciated.

I should upgrade to an S4? I think the milege is a bit high too as it has done about 100000 miles (140000km). However I really really want to keep my custom seats and custom leather door trims. Will they fit on a Newer A4 or an S4 you think? Or should I get a new engine or what?

Car has only 90K miles on it. Not excessive in my view.
Make sure the engine and transmission is performing to specs. Swap out all fluids including transmission, differentials, oil. Make sure all maintenance has been done (ie timing belt if it hasn't been done yet), and drop in a chip.

Well.............. It aint running according to specs cos.... It aint running. I have no oil pressure.. So I am taking the opportunity to fix it, do the timing belt as well & I'll do the fluids too. Anything else I should do?
