Crank lock pin, makes it fool proof!

What year? Think about trying to find a metal thermostat housing if you don't have one. I think the early 2000/2001 models have it, 2001.5 and up have plastic.

Also, do an oil change.

alternator, but thats optional.

Complete valve cover job is easier with front end and timing belt off if you want to add that in. Can also consider upgrading the snub motor mount at this point too?! I also did a headlight washer delete(since my RS4 bumper hits the ground and pops off the nozzle and caps all the time). APR bipipe and lighter pulleys are other upgrades you can also consider at this stage while in there.

It's a 2001.5. I have already taken care of the vavle covers. I think i will do the alternator while im there. Thanks guys.

Don't do the alternator just for fun. And don't do any lightweight pullies.

This. And you don't need the crank lock pin.

What is wrong with lighter pulleys? I've heard some people have bad experiences and others are fine. Mine are ECS tuning ones and my car runs well. I didn't do the pulleys myself...they are from the previous owner.
