seafoam. but not until it runs fine on its own, don't be doing it if your afraid to let it run. If its just valve tick you shouldn't have a problem sea foaming. check the pickup for sludge first.

The things you listed will cost much more than 700 at Audi dealer.

A dealer will charge twice that for the parts, and twice again for labor...

timing and water pump alone over 2k guarantee it.
