    Spare Parts?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Okay, looks like we got ourselves one "sensitive" car. I've ordered a set of 4 Ignition Coil Packs, to keep in the car at all times, just in case. What other things do you recommend us having in the trunk at all times for this seemingly sensitive engine and components?

    Of course, let's limit these things to that of parts that we wouldn't necessarily have the luxury of waiting for. i.e. a bad O2 sensor, will still let you drive home, right? But a failed coil pack or two can be a show stopper and something that takes minutes to fix on the shoulder and get your running again. Let's not make this crazy, like spare clutch, brakes, turbo, ECU etc. I think this is useful information, especially for new to Audi owners like myself.

    Thank you for your contribution.

    Duct Tape FTW...
    Perhaps some oil, spare headlight bulb/taillight bulb/license plate bulb even though I have never needed these they could be good for long road trips.
    Spare tire inflated properly... it is amazing how many people drive around with out a tire or a flat spare...

    Thanks, that's good info, I have one of those jumper thingies, I guess I bring that with me, and my portable air pump. These are all good to know, let's keep it coming.
