    Just trying to figure out why my front suspension is making noise when I turn. I think it's time to change the strut mounts/bushings/bearings.

    Getting some things together to make the daily more pleasant to drive. Just picked up a 2.25 exhaust instead of a 2.5, swapping to serpentine for less v belt noise.

    Piecing together stuff for my project car. Picked up a matching hood and fender last night.

    Cleaned the S4 like a madman on Sunday. It was filthy. I think I vacuumed enough change out from under the seats to pay it off. :lurk:

    Getting my new catback installed this weekend and hope to have time to pull the downpipes to remove the pre-cats while I'm at it.

    Now I need suspension and to get my wheels off to Rotiform to be re-drilled and painted.
