a new happening today - my AC compressor is unresponsive with the climate control and is always partially engaged so that it makes this wonderful metal on metal sound. Guess it's time for a new one of those..
Casey's V8 5spd:Cort's, no, Casey's, no, Cort's, no Keith's!

I sold the Mini and upgraded to a 19 year old Audi! At least it's low mileage with only 134k 
1991 original 5spd purchased from my friend Cort in Burlington, VT. It's in pretty good shape, but does need a starter, power steering pump, and the center u-joint/carrier bearing to be serviced. Those will come with time. It also needs similar blacking of the ecodes as on my 200.
Best part? The stebro exhaust turns lots of heads which then results in confused looks from onlookers as they see an Audi that looks nothing like an A4 drive by. I have had one gentleman who knew what it was come up and talk to me about it and then he started talking about an old 100 he had and how he misses that car and hates the passat 4-motion he picked up.
Other than that, it does shift 1-2 and 3-2 kind of hard... I hope but kind of doubt new fluid will solve the problem but who knows.
On to the pics! Now I have matching pearl money pits. Ooops.

Don't mind him, he is having V8 withdrawal.....sometimes it gets real bad. Whats important is that Ron has our (v8 owners) support during this tough transition.WOMBAT said:
