Well, it needs to be done

[AudiNFS]

I need some tedious but important work done on my S4. I simply don't have time between things or exactly the know-how or tools to do these thigns and I can't afford any more mishaps with this car for right now. List:

1) New gaskets- valve covers, cam chain tensioners, half moon, etc.
2) CEL diagnosed- smoke test/boost leak test for EVAP leak. I took it to a garage around here for that and they charged me $40 just for clearing the codes and driving my car, not testing anything.
3) anti-rattle brake clip fixed. Mostly just a "while I'm at it" sort of thing.
4) Someone who drives stick and knows their Audi's to test drive my car and see if they can find any other problems.

I'm willing to drive. Preferably no more than a couple hours. I'm willing to work something out if you are willing to drive up here. Otherwise, does anyone know a reputable garage they have experience with? I can't afford anymore mistakes on this car. This is my second time for gaskets. Edge Motorsports/Edge Motors (can't remember what they're called) I know is a great place, but they're about 4 hours away from me. I'm in PA, about 30 mins. from Elmira and 45 mins. from Binghamton, about 1.5 hours from Williamsport, and an hour from Scranton.

If anyone is willing to help, please PM me. If anyone knows a garage, please let me know. I'm hoping to get this stuff done for a Stage 1 tune. I appreciate any help guys/gals. TIA

So, you still happy about owning an S4? Because I'm still content with my little 4 banger .

Yes? These problems aren't really S4 specific and could happen to an A4
