yeah i'm going too, my car is going to the body shop on thursday.
getting a hood replaced, passenger fender replaced. Front bumper respray, passenger door blend and driver fender blend. Someone rear ended me. After the car is back I have to fix my coolant leak, oil change, rear wheel bearing and i think cct.

Aeeron, it sounds like you might want to flush your coolant system. The term is probably causing you hating issues but the center vent not blowing can be because of a gummed up heater core. Check the blend door first, that wont let the flap open for the center vents, but another reason no hot air is coming from the front is because the core might be clogged.

i also found a gallon of peak antifreeze coolant in the spare tire area. is it bad to use peak coolant?

I got it at my local autozone, it's a fail safe. And if the peak says on it made for any model of any make then its fine to use ONLY after you COMPLETELY flush the coolant, that means filling it with water 2-3 times and running it before you can start using the peak. Otherwise you are gunna have a coolant sludge problem

i really didnt do anything but add another quartz of oil to the car the other day. yesterday i finally had to drive somewhere about 20 minutes away. the weather was pretty nice, sunny yesterday. my oil pressure gauge went up to 175 like normally and then eventually crawled up to 199-200 after driving around for like an hour and 30 minutes.
is that a good reading for the oil pressure or should i be around the middle like 250?

Ok so I popped off the cover and the chain seems tight as can be, when I had the car running the noise was louder towards the firewall, and it got worse when the car got warmed up. I even turned over the car with a bud watching the chain and its tight as can be. What could be wrong??

Hey everyone, Im new to the forum. I had a problem occur with my 99 A4 1.8. It has 220K on the clock(its been good to me). Ive had the timing belt replaced with all the componets. The problem started after the oil change, the light oil nozzle came on. And the engine sound noisier than before. Ive ordered a oil pump to replace the one now. Is there another problem that can bring this on. Where can i find the CCT procedure. I probably going to replace that too. Good car.
