[s-cars] 60k Service on '01 S4:

[Linus Toy]

Forgive Brian for not owning a REAL quattro (with five cylinders ;) anymore...

He did have a type 89 90q before his neu-S4...if any of you saw it, you'd
understand why he asks this list for advice...REAL quattro owners seem to have
a much better sense of DIY maintenance and/or care...perhaps that's because we
have to live with the traditional Audi electrics, hydraulics, and other
idiosyncracies :)

Grinning, ducking & running!
