Hi. I joined this forum some time ago, but forgot I had, and haven't posted yet. I recieved a reminder email, and ever since have been reminded that I haven't posted anything here yet LOL... so... here I am :bwekk:
We have a December '94 B4 Audi 80E 2.6L V6 in BRG (or similar). She has pretty high milage and therefore was reasonably priced so we could afford it. Audi's are pretty expensive here in New Zealand as a rule. This car runs very nicely and comfortably and looks good doing it.
Problems? Well yes, but only a couple. 1) Oil sump leak: Took her to an Audi dealer who inspected her... they said that the inner sumpgasket and outter one may be in need of replacement soon... the inner item being a small mission to replace. 2) Mineral hydrolic fluid leak (power-steering/brake boost). Now this is the truely annoying problem. Not only does this fluid cost NZ$30 for 1L (of which it loses 3/4 per month) but this leak causes some kind of vapour or mist to come through the ventilation system into the cabin... which mist's up all the glass all the time (doay or night) and smells bad.
Fix it? Well the Audi dealer wants moon money to repair it, and I simply don't have the knowhow... so until later, I will keep topping the mineral hydrolic fluid up.
Ok... NOW I have actually posted something here in the Audi forum... no more prompts... yay.
