Tim's B8 build thread.

[DoctorB8]

1. Does the car need to be jacked to get to it?
2. I used to degrease my old car like that but wasn't too confident doing it with my Audi, too many wires everywhere lol
3. I don't have a vagcom so it looks like I wont be able to do it, spewing :( Do you reckon Audi would do it for me if I gave them the steering wheel lol

No need to jack the car. If you see a few posts up you can see where I installed the catch can. Just need to pop the hood, remove the 2 screws holding the can and then there is a screw on the bottom you undo to drain.

I heard of people using a citrus degreaser but I just used chemical guys apc and it worked great with a little agitation

you can get a wheel without paddles. If you want them I'm sure if you post in your regional forums that you need help with someone with a vagcom someone can chime in. In regards to audi.. If you get the exact wheel I did which would require relocating wires on the harness, I highly doubt it. Better luck with some indy shop if you want to go that route. Alex on the forums here has harnesses already made with the flat bottoms but they are hella pricey

That's a sexy ass wheel. I need to get one eventually.

Damn, jealous you got a new turbo, engine, and trans, my dealership only offered to replace pistons/rings for $5400+tax.

Lookin like a solid build, keep up the good work.
