Does anyone else have one of those quick release key chain clips because they can't stand all the keys hanging into their knee?

I need to get one.

[andy'sgti03]

I definitely have one and it definitely gets used EVERY single time I get in the car. I love these cars but I can't stand how the other keys hang into my knee...

[AudiUrPnts]

I have a leak someware in my PCV system and i cant find it.. At low rmp`s when i tap the gas i hear a sound that is like a intake sucking up air. But the sound is now coming from the intake. I don't have a check engine light but that noise and not knowing where its coming from is bugging the crap out of me.

So im in Virginia at college right now and the first snow of the year is falling. Looks like im not going anywhere for a little bit, the rotas are still on and the coils are still down.

<--- This guy.

I set up my keys for both cars so that it is only the key for the car in the ignition at any given time.

I also use a carabiner.

Guess who won best car at Banned From Skyline 2011 ??? This guy

[PSU]

Congrats man!

[AudiUrPnts]

Congrats man!

Thanks, not gonna lie there wernt too many cars there with a lot of mods. Mainly all mk5 and 6s with not much done to them. I was the only audi and the only one with some what lows hahaha. But the guys really liked it. Now the "cruise" on the other hand was out of control. It was more like a 100 mile drag race up and down a mountain, in and out of snow and on and off dirt roads. I basically paid 20 bucks to beat the **** out of my car haha. I wasn't too happy, idk if ill go back again.

Winning is winning.

And that cruise sounds absurd. Glad I didn't do it back in April.

[asullivan]

congrats on the win

Yeah if they didn't get snow the night before, and you get a bunch of your friends to go it would be ok. Then you could just take your time and stop for photos and what not. But i had no idea where i was, was with no friends so all i could do was try and keep up. Don't get me wrong the rout was amazing, crazy turns un and down mountains.

[AudiUrPnts]

And for winning, i got a gift card to get a custom euro plate made. Any ideas on what i should get ? Im about to pick up a mk1 rabbit this weekend so maybe something around that.

[AudiUrPnts]

AHHHH if its not one thing it another. Today i did some digging and found out the source of my long lasting engine to lean code. It was a busted Crank case breather tube, under the intake manifold. So hopefully the VW dealer down hear at school can get the parts to me asap.

[AudiUrPnts]

parts ordered from the dealer hopefully the car will be back on the road Friday

Thanks new age imagery for the shots

Any ground clearance issues on the trip?

Not for the first 80 miles. But the last 20 were rough, a mk1 cabby and myself were the only cars that you could call low. Everyone else was at stock ride hight or a little low and flexing over bumps, so us trying to keep up and not having any indicators were just nailing them.

[AudiUrPnts]

After three days the car is back in action. Tomorrow the BLQs are coming off and the stock boys are going on.

[PSU]

Good deal.

[AudiUrPnts]

Good deal.

The deal is, im trading the wheels and tires for a mk1 Rabbit 8v. Runs strong, has a clean title, and less miles on it than my A4. It has coils, full exhaust, short shift kit, front and rear sway bars. New breaks, clutch, radiator, alternator, and timing belt and water pump were just done. It does have some rust but what 84 rabbit doesn't. As for the BLQ`s, i wasn't in love with them and they were gonna get taken off for the year next week any way. When tax time comes around and im out of college in May ill get a new set. I feel like this is a deal I couldn't resist, im driving to Wilmington NC tomorrow to get it. I dont think ill be able to sleep tonight

[AudiUrPnts]

So the wheels are gone and the Rabbit is home. The A4 doesn't look too bad almost tucking stock wheels and flush as crap.

[AudiUrPnts]

So hear it is. The rabbit i traded my wheels for.

[bondar1989]

Nice picture/ build thread. From the stock wheels to the blq's it was an amazing change it looked soo nice when i first looked at it. That cabby was a nice trade for a set of wheels.

Yeah i was about to take the wheels off for winter anyway. And when i took them off i was gonna try and sell them to get something different for next year. So i thought the trade was a good deal/idea.

In my opinion I liked the stock wheels more then the blq's, especially in the first photo were your slammed on the stock wheels, so I feel it was a good move. Its just to bad it isn't a GTI , whats the plans for it?

The first plan is too fix a few rust spots. Then wheels and tires so i can go low. Im thinking some wide 13s . Im having mixed feeling about paint. I kinda like the beat up look as long as the car runs strong (it does). I wanna get a duck bill for the front and a big roof basket. But right now my goals are to clean it up more and get a headliner (it doesnt have one). the coils are all the way down, it just wont go any lower on those wheels and tires.

I like how the BLQ's looked on this car when i saw the pic. Black wheels can pull it off I dont kno how they would look hyper silver on a black car but im sure i can search for a pic. to lazy tho

[bondar1989]

With that wood grain steering wheel do you not have an airbag now?

They were gun metal, i did like them but i saw them on a few other b6`s at h2oi and i wanted something new.

Yes no more air bag, but IMO air bags kill people so i dont mind.

[asullivan]

tasteful rat rod ftmfw!!! I too like the rust look (not necessarily rusted out just that rust color look). I almost bought a harliquin that was all beat to hell to do a rat rod version...I should have done it

Yea they i see them around on a few cars.

Be careful dont hit anyone otherwise you will be tasting that steering wheel with your teeth

[AudiUrPnts]

I think im gonna put the wood wheel in the mk1. I just need to get a hub

[ElliottG]

In your first post you said it was a 5 speed. I was under the impression that all 2004 and 2005 models were 6 speeds? Or did it only change in late 2004?

[asullivan]

I believe his is a fwd....maybe that has something to do with it

[joellehardcore]

Ah! I've seen this car rolling around Delaware (too small not to). I loved the Roti's on there but the stocks look tough too. Awesome car.
