Hi didnt mean to press enter when making thread so ill just post the questions here.


How many miles do these cars generally last?
Has anyone run into problems installing an OEM nav unit such as (http://www.navparts.com/index.php?ta...oduct_id=29778)?
Do any small modifications void the warranty? (Chip,intake,exhaust)
How far can these cars be lowered without losing any performance due to quattro?

I would also like to know manual versus the tiptronic or whatever it is paddle shifting method. I know the logistic obvious advantages but down the road which has more potential for speed from modifications?

200,000+ miles easily if you maintain it well.
lowering will help obviously with a good susp system. too low and it will affect performance and ride will be unpleasant for what I have read.

Im also looking into getting an S4. Could the B5 S4 engine handle a Big turbo upgrade like a GT28rs? Or would i need to put new rods pistons and what not.
