    How do you fix these?

    Does anyone know how to fix the gap between the removable slots for the car jack and the side skirt? All four of mine are still intact, but the small space between the edges is starting to get larger. I've looked at them and can't see that any connections are loose. Is anyone else out there...

    A big OOPS!

    Okay, the girlfriend was doing me a favor the other day by adding a little wiper fluid to the SVT. Then she came back and said that she started to poor the wiper fluid in and red liquid over flowed from the container..... Yep, that's right, she added it to the power steering fluid! So here's...

    What happens when the clutch goes boom?

    Okay, I'm looking for any information on behalf of a friend who is driving a 2000 S4. He recently had his clutch go out and as it did, experienced all the usual signs except for he finally was not able to put the car in first gear. Upon taking it to CarMax - where he bought the car - they sent...

    Secondaries...Why bother???

    This may be a dumb question, but I was thinking about whether it was possible to have the secondary runners open up at a lower rpm than 3750. It would seem that we could get more power that way. However, by doing that I'm sure a lot of other things would need to be worked out with the engine...

    Paint question?

    I am entertaining the thought of painting the chrome oval on our front grill the same color as the rest of the body. I have a red CSVT and was wondering if anyone has done this before. If so, are there any pics to get a look at? Any color would work, I just want to get an idea. Thanks in...

    Chrome Exhaust Tips?

    I know I've put this out there some time ago, but I'm looking to replace the stock exhuast tips on my 99CSVT with 3" rolled chrome tips, but I'm finding it a little hard to locate some. Any suggestions for online dealers? Thanks in advance.

    Exhaust Tips?

    Okay, I'm coming clean on my lack of knowledge out exhaust systems. Currently I have a stock system and I would like to keep it that way, however. I find that the stock tail pipes are ugly and I want to upgrade them to a crome 3" round over tip. My question is can I just purchase them at the...

    Window problems?

    Can someone please enlighten me on why my drivers window won't always roll down when I push the button. It seems like it might be a loose connection, but before I go taking things apart, I was wondering if anyone has a fix or is having the same problem? I'm not an electrical guy so any advise...

    Funny Sounds?!

    Since the weather here is starting to get colder, I have noticed that when I start my car in the morning, I get a short "ooooing" sound out of it-if that makes sense. It only lasts for a second or two and when I give it a little gas, it goes right away. This doesn't happen when the engine is...

    Power Steering?

    I have noticed that my power steering makes a slight (not very loud at all) wining sound when I am turning at very low speeds. Is this a common occurrence?

    KKM vs. Others

    Okay, I'm about to purchase a CAI, but have a few last minute questions??? Which brand out there would you guys recommend? Also, has anyone noticed any "real" increases with a regular drop in K&N? Thanks in advance.

    Anyone have Spacers?

    I was wondering if anyone has or has heard of someone putting wheel spacers on the CSVT stock wheels. If so, are there any complications with this? Does it inhibit performance? If some one has done this, what brand of spacer did you use? Any info would be great. Thanks in advance.

    what is the difference?

    Can someone tell me where the extra 5 horses came from between the '98 and the '99 CSVT? I know that the wheels changed and the interior as well, but I can not find what they did to the engine.

    What's the best Temp?

    I'm wondering, has anyone out there figured out what the optimal outside temp is for the CSVT? I was running around the other day, it was about 90 degrees and the thing seemed to have tons more power than normal. Any ideas???

    to resonate or not to resonate...?!

    I baught my 99 CSVT almost 1 year ago and now I'm starting to add a few mods. I've ordered a KKM intake so far. I am wondering if there are any benefits of having the resonator removed completely or should it be replaced with a high-flow unit? What are the pros and cons of each??? Thanks in...
