Some recent pics of my Q4
Hi Guys
Just thought I would share some recent pictures of my Q4. I don't have so much to report these days as I really haven't been challenged with any major issues recently, but I will be doing some preventative maintenance over the winter and replacing the standard interior with a Recaro one secured from my good friend Haydn!
Plan is to remove the subframes and get them powder coated, replace the springs, replace the brake flexi's pipes with braided hoses, get the brake calipers refurbished, replace the rear disks or skim them as appropriate, find and sort an oil leak on the engine which I suspect is the rear crank oil seal, which means splitting the engine and gearbox so it would then be wise to do the clutch at the same time. I suspect that not even half of this will be done in the end as it's not stopping me driving the car at the moment but..............?
