RAI did the oil change last. So i think they wouldn't have over filled it. And yes the engine was warm, I'm just thinking it was bubbles? i would love to be sure, the car has been running fine lately i haven't noticed one problem.

i dunno what i will actually accomplish this year.. im hoping to get body work taken care of yet again.. small rust spots and peeling paint are honestly eating me alive.. i cant stand it.. but other than that.. might think about doing timing belt ****.. was done before i bought the car around 110k and shes at 155k as of now.. better sooner than later.. sport springs possibly.. and brake cleanup/caliper paint (going with a bronze/gold similar to what youd see on an STi) and maybe some tint finally.. clutch was the best money i ever spent though i can tell you that!

If you want to tint, I can set you up for tint here during a meet. Local guy who also is an Audi technician does killer tint work (he's done several local cars for guys I know). He'll do an A4 for ~$160 and have it ready and back to you the same day.

BTW, how do you like the difference of the A8 brakes vs stock A4 brakes?
