    Re: im sick of my b5 ^%&#@$ !!!

    i'm not at that point yet, hopefully i never will. my car has been giving me small problems lately, got them figured out if not fixed.. and now my a/c stopped working. still love my car and don't plan on selling it for a while. i'm constantly rethinking about my plans on a bigger turbo however.

    b5 owners either hate their cars, love them or both simultaneously. i've never met someone indifferent.

    Re: im sick of my b5 ^%&#@$ !!!

    I was in the same boat. Then I said f'it i'll just keep it. I did a couple things and then just started to drive the crap out of it..

    If you were local I would buy it...

    Good luck with the sale!

    I know exactly how you feel man.....I'm almost there.....going BT was a mistake, cuz I can't handle it when my car ain't workin...But I'm torn, because I absolutely love workin on cars......G'luck finding a new one.....But i recommend fixing it, then getting more for it (could just need new coilpacks)

    Sounds like you're fed up. You probably just need a ICM or coil packs. Fix it

    b6 are just as reliable or unreliable as b5's.. you probably hear of more issues involving b5's because they're older. how a b5 or b6 a4 treats you seems to be entirely dependent on two things, how the owner/s (current and previous) treat the car and just plain luck, you can treat the car like a queen and still have it shit the bed on you from time to time. I've had shit go wrong that absolutely should not have at the miles I'm at.

    by the way, the original posters problem can be MAF related.

    Re: im sick of my b5 ^%&#@$ !!!

    man 190k miles I would expect shit to be going wrong left and right!! I see why you are upset but hopefully you get the problem fixed and have a change of heart!

    If you do sell what will be your next ride?

    Somebody buy it and sell me the s4 front for cheap!


    Sorry you're having all the problems man, at 190k you really have to decide if it's worth it.

    is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves. "

    Re: im sick of my b5 ^%&#@$ !!!

    Same as well here, just had transmission rebuilt even though mileage only under 110k, but I just hate making payments and that's why I just fix whatever problems lies ahead and drive the most out of it.
