[V8] New V8Q

[Ed Kellock]

Hi Dee!

Very nice!  Back to the fold and with a V8q to boot, figuratively and
literally. Well done!

A/C shouldn't be a problem.  Some have converted and will likely chime in
about that.  Lots of help regarding wheels as well.  I will send you some
pix of a couple of different 16-inch OEM choices that I use on my V8's in
case something like that might appeal to you.

Regarding the badge, if the dealer doesn't have it, I'm sure one can be
found fairly readily from a parts car.  

It's good to have you back on the list.

Happy Easter,
Ed

Hello V8 Owners:

I recently purchased a 1990 V8Q and I have some questions....

On the only 90+ degree day this year in NJ, I found that I had no AC - hot
air only. Barring big mechanical issues, I am hoping to get the system
charged. Have most of you had your AC systems retro-fitted to use R134? If
not, can I get the system charged any other way, Freon/R12?

Also, I followed the thread about V8 wheels. I have to admit that I hate the
wheels that are currently on the car. Would consider keeping them for snow
tires, but would like new 16s. I am not seeing many aftermarket wheels in
that size however, the few I've seen are sized as below:

16x7, 5x112  45mm
16x7.5  5x112 (?)

I don't pretend to know what each of those numerical designations stands for
so that why I'm asking for help. What would fit?

Also, one of the small Audi badges is missing on the side of the car, anyone
know where I could get one of those? Lots more to do, but that's it for now.
If I can't get cool air, I may not have a V8 anymore ;-(

Dee
