Hi Guys,

Greetings from Saskatchewan, yes, having a tough year with the grasshoppers=
, but what the heck.  Need some advice.... my tech has informed me that a n=
ew Aux. Fan Motor and Blades will cost approx. $ 819.00 CDN.  I suspected s=
omething was funny when it did not run all summer, it does turn by hand, bu=
t really gritty feeling.  Here are my questions:  1)  Can the motor be rebu=
ilt  and is it worth it??  2) Can an alternate source other than the Father=
land be the supplier and if so, cost and availability?

That is all for now,  I have a great Tech who just joined local Audi dealer=
 from the local BMW dealer, fortunate to work with his wife...so I feel ver=
y good about future problems and maintenance...he is a car guys Tech. and i=
s anxious to hear what you guys have to say about this as he is pretty new =
to Audi's.  ( He did some cool re-routing of the vacuum hose from the Turbo=
 to my A'pexi module, he ran it behind the heat shield to help extend life =
of the hose).

For those of you who offered advice on the fuel line recall, Audi did come =
thru and it was replace today, even though they initially thought it was no=
t covered..... thanks guys.

Thanks for any advice...
