'01 Allroad? Yikes!

[Grant Lenahan]

Its the same 2.7 twin turbo motor as the B5 S4 and C5 2.7t. very  
solid engine.  Turbos are K-03 units, small and fragile if abused.   
Perfectly fine if treated properly.  The suspension is fairly  
reliable, but obviously outrageous if/when it fails. No deep  
experience. I would go to the allroad forum on Audiworld and look for  
"paulroad"
