C5?

Took it in for the emissions test. Nothing like waiting until the last day. As predicted, failed. Its hilarious, when you fail now they make you go talk to a "tech counselor" so your results can be explained to you. I walk in show him my form and explain that I already know what is wrong, I already know how to fix it, I already know how to make sure "readiness" is set for the next time I bring it in for the test and that the only reason I bothered to show up today was that it was the last day before my car gets put on the "naughty list". He just sort of shook his head and said, "OK. have a nice day."

Skating on for four more months. I'll probably get around to fixing it sooner, rather than later.

I do have an Audi, and I really like Audi too. But, I don't have any spam.

Because I hate spam.

So I lifted the b5 today to take a gander at removing the trans pan... I was greeted by oil and water?!

First this was dripping water... a lot.

a lot


then towards the front everything seems to have oil on it... the bolts for the trans pan even dripping oil?!

Well I did my PCV system today using the ECS kit, and I must say that was not my favorite maintenance task. The kit was great as it came with every thing but I wish the 2.8 came with a normal system to deal with crankcase pressure haha.
