[V8] [urq] "Team Door handle"

[Dave Saad]

Hey - Im still here! sans V8 of course, but I do have a V8 floor mat as my garage entry rug! 

Dave

btw, like the V8, my allroad has had its first scheduled failure - I had to replace the torque converter due to the clutch seal failure. It took me 5 days overall to do it in my garage with a cherry picker. All in all it was not that hard. While I was in there, I put in a pressure valve kit that is supposed to prevent the transmission drums from breaking. Hope that works! other than that I still think this is a very worth successor to my V8.
