Questions about 2008 Audi A4 S-line manual

[duganc1717]

I just spotted a 2008 Audi A4 S-line manual and have been tossing around the idea of replacing my family truckster (03' VW passat wagon GLX manual). Is the S-line pkg strictly a appearence pkg?

Is there anything to keep an out for on a B7 3.2 powertrain or suspension wise?

[duganc1717]

Really, no one....

[mlauener91]

s-line is just an appearance thing, suspension will be the same on 2.0 or 3.2... with a tune the 2.0 will be just as quck if not qicker than the 3.2

[duganc1717]

Not really concerned with the "quickness", more concerned about the reliablilty.

...but the pic (well, judging only by the wheels) looks like the full S-line package.

In 2008, all A4s had the S-line "appeance" package (e.g., interior/exterior badges, trunk lip, front fascia, etc.). But you could also add the "full" S-line package (continued from 2005.5) which included the 18" wheels and sport suspension...

That's where all if u guys are WRONG:
3.2l V6 manual tranny.........the only one of its kind(no other Audi has it ....NONE)
Rear diff: SAME THING ......for fluids no one stocks it,its a special order 33 euro per litter (u need 5 litters total) some of the b6 and B7 interior does not fit because Sline ,it's like an s or a RS it's just a V6 instead of V8. That's Sline for the 3.2.....and ufcorse leather,premium boss,nice trim, monster mats and so and so........

Unless you buy an A5 of course

On topic. I have a 3.2 manual. Great car, but carbon build ups like a bastard. I came from a apr mkv GTI. The 3.2 is every bit as quick and miles smoother.

My ac compressor grenaded at only 120,000km and Audi told me to take a dump in my hat 3 months out of warranty. Parts are VERY expensive too

Ur nuts,I replaced my condersor,dryer....all the seals and new freon and oil for 287$ CD. I don't know what are u pricing out but it's a half hour JB to take everything off...an hour to recharge 50$ and that's it!

[Klutch_R]

And the compressor 215$......and all the labor=myself

What does one do to resolve the carbon issue?

What does one do to resolve the carbon issue?

I had it done last October. Under warranty. My idle was rough and had power loss. They took half my engine apart and cleaned the valves

[Klutch_R]

Unfortunately that's the way to do it........"gut it and clean" !!!!!!
