Bought one (even though my father has owned a '98 A4 Quattro since new but now I have one of my own)

 

Ordered A1 Cardone calipers today with centric pads. cant wait to install them!! Since I have been driving my suburban lately it will be nice to have my Audi back. Any reviews on Cardones?

 

Installed Egle drilled and slotted rotars all around

 

why does my heater/blower fan NOT WORK in my 98 A4???? why dammit!!!!!

 

You had me at "4.2". I can haz build thread?

 

There's two A8s with 4.2s at a pick n pull near me. Too bad I'm no where close to being able to do a swap like that.

 

I'm working on it. Wrenches will start flying in 2 weeks. I've been shopping for parts.

 

There is a control module on the fan itself behind the glove box. It's actually pretty easy to get the glove box out of the way, then you'll see the blower. Pull that out and you'll find the module. It's made out of metal with heat sink fins on it. That's is most likely your problem. I was determined to fix mine last summer when the AC wouldn't blow in the Texas 115 degree heat.

 

I saw a "build thread" (sorta) over at the 'zine this morning. Some guy sent his B7S4 Avant to DHMotorsports for a prototype STG 2 build. Modest estimates in the 550 HP range.

 

Put a brand new PC925 battery in hoping to fix my Tach issue of it not always working when I start the car, but that didn't fix the issue. I guess the 3 fuel pumps just draw too much power as I am cranking the starter (power drops below 11 volts). So now I am going to just put in a relay and switch on the tach power wire so I can have it off when I start the car and then power it up after. Already tested to see if that would work and it does.
