Hi, as some of you have noticed, my ABT has been suffering from a piston tipper on cylinder for some time now 2. Since a motor repair is not worth it anymore with my car I wanted to ask if it is possible simply to replace the piston, i.e. oil tank down, conrod with piston down and install new pistons from below ^^ again. Ginge that? I know, this is not optimal it is about the costs that would keep themselves at such a limit. All other seals, bearings ect would remain still in order. Otherwise the damage to the cylinder wall will also be limited and if a piston does not get worse, right?

Hi you, have an Audi 80 B4 2,8l Limo BJ 92 without a board computer. As I said without, and I would like to change this. Since I am not yet an Audi specialist, I now ask you for help My question now: Is there a board computer to upgrade? And if so, how would the cost point approx. BZW what do I need to do with it, or is everything already available. It’s important to me that I have my temps in mind, and the average consumption is displayed to me. Thanks already for your answers Daredevil

Today is really a bad day for me. I left my ABT at the workshop to get to the bottom of the rattle / rattle sounds. This morning I picked him up with the Job’s message piston tipper. Probably. In order to get closer to the bottom he had to take the engine apart, but I refused that. I am really desperate, have my ABT only 15 months and am also quite satisfied and would like to drive it for a long time and the master said that it is not so wild as it goes away when the car gets warm and I can drive with it for a long time, but should I rather park the car somewhere else and get a second opinion? Can that be just a hair crack in the cracker (When I asked the master yesterday he said it is unlikely). What do you think?

Moin and Merry Christmas, I need a coupling for my 89er AUDI 90 Quattro with NG motor shortly. Have never informed me in this direction. Fixed or removable? Build yourself or have it done? Registration? Prices? Thank you and greeting Markus

Hello, and indeed I bought white rims, 17 inches and 8J wide, but just without tires. Would fit tires from 215 to 235. Since the coupe with front drive does not like wide tires at the front I thought of 215 front and 235 rear. Once appearance and once driving behavior. But some advised me not to do so and meant if I have 2 235 back on it 1. the fuel consumption by 1-2l, 2. the handling worsens (which after the installation of the subwoofer with a kitchen plate very unfortunately had to) and 3. it is not good for the car. However, since I can’t understand 2. and 3. and 1. I seem a little exaggerated I am not sure what to do now.

Hi, I have a problem with my trunk lighting, and the lamp does not light up when the stand light is switched on or I open the flap. However, the lamp lights up when I expand it and hold one metal part of the lamp to the metal of the hat rack (from below) and that even if the ignition is off and the stand light is off, so everything. How is the lamp normally switched on? And where does the 2 wired cables lead to the lamp? I am an electrician, but 12 volt vehicle electrics is a big mystery to me. If someone has switching plans of the Audi 80 B4 Limusine BJ ’94, especially from the trunk lighting I would be grateful for a transmission or any other help.

Hello, can someone help me ? I have already used the 2nd new radio (last Aldi ) and the reception is just bad. Roof antenna near tailgate ; there is no rust etc. Question: is it due to the inferior quality of the radios or can it be a techn. Problem with the antenna – and what could I do then ? Would be nice if someone could answer me cleverly ;-)) Greeting smila

Hello, have the following question: Had a small gift position earlier with an A3 I in my type 89 Coupe. At about 160 I went on the brake because of a lightning, and my steering wheel started to jerk. Always equally right/left the car moved but not to one side!! What could that be? Brake disc is not torn, pads are still good and discs have also come through tuev before 1000km. Hope someone has a tip, mfg I.k.d

Hello, did you want to have a small assessment of whether it is possible to change the cylinder head seal with the help of a book like “Now I help myself” or “So wird’s wird’s” yourself? Goes around an 80s with a PM motor. It’s also possible with teeth and tensioning roller. I’ve never done this before, but would already claim to have a certain technical understanding. If necessary, I could still drag my brother who has not done much for cars, but has already done almost everything in the field of two-wheelers. He should definitely get it done or? Wouldn’t it be great if you could say a little bit about it, even if you might need special tools for it! Have, by the way, done the “So we did it”. Have done a bit of research and it is often advised that you have both better. So, can’t you generally say that one of the two is better?

Does anyone know if I can lower the 80 Avant without any problems 60/60? Have a 20mm sports suspension as standard, which, as is well known, reduces the lowering rate of a new suspension due to the serial depth. Do I get a problemless 205/55er to 7.5×16 underneath??? Thanks to all
