ya know, them traffic jams in bangkok are a zillion times worse than LA.. i
have not visited the place in over 10 years, but my cousin who lives there
recently had to spend the night in a hotel because he couldn't get home from
work.
i can't imagine owning an audi there, let alone a car with an internal
combustion engine. i'd have an electric car for those conditions, or a
helicopter.

MY five year old also pointed out that buzzing sound. Its always
helpful to have someone riding in the back seat. Does it mean failure
is imminent? Should there be any sound at all - is it a matter of
loudness?
I guess I can check with the dealer to see if the previous owner
ever replaced it...and hope for some Audi support. Is the replacement
difficult?
Where does one find the Bentley manual?

I have Falken FK60U (or something like that) on my '81 Coupe. The tire store
recommended them over Michelin or Pirelli, which I was about to buy from the
same store. The size is (I think) 18560-HR14. They seem to do quite well in dry
and wet. I've since purchased a second set for my wife's Mazda.

Subject: Re: Turbos, HP and Real World...
hmmmm.... Can understand what your saying, but the indicated boost pressure
is not necessarily reflecting demand, just supply, so if the demand is higher
on my 10v at agiven rpm I can have more flow at that rpm, even tho I'm
showing supply of 1.5bar of charged air vs your 1.5 bar at the same rpm.....
This taking your reduced pressure argument.... Me thinks flow and boost
pressure are two parameters not one.... I can have higher flow at a given
pressure by changing a variey of turbo parameters...... I can have make a
turbo flow 650cfm at 1.5 bar (argument only here) vs a smaller turbo that
flows only 350cfm at 1.5bar........

what a lot of people seem to assume is that the ur-Q was never improved from
the original 81/82/83 model. nothing could be further from the truth. while
the external styling remained instantly recognizable, lots of changes were
constantly made beneath the skin. the early cars were troublesome, but to
extrapolate that experience to say, a 1990 20V model would be blind
stupidity. it would be as dumb as saying "i had a 1973 honda civic that was
a tinbox, therefore all japanese cars made today are tinboxes".
i would also guess that by 1985 (glen's car) advances were made in production
and quality as by then they realized that the car would be more than a
homologation special..
if i wanted to make generalizations about the ur-Q's reliability, i
would not extend it beyond the same model year..

Whoa!!!! Flamethrowers down, soldiers! I didn't say that UrQuattro's (or
any other Audis) are unreliable. I said that Audis require attention to
regular, preventative maintenance or else they *will* become unreliable.
There are lots of Audis out there with >200K miles that run and look great
because 1) they're built to last if maintained, and 2) the owners have ac-
tually performed the recommended maintenance at the proper intervals. I
agree that Audi mechanicals have bulletproof potential -- and I think
everyone here will agree that the same can't be said for Hondas or 95% of
the other so-called "reliable" marques. And how many of these others are
still tight and solid after 150K miles? I think that the reliability
reputation of the Japanese cars is formulated during the first 50K miles,
when ignorant car owners can neglect their maintenance and still expect the
car to function properly -- which it probably will (at least for a while).
The difference is "life potential". Even with proper maintenance, the so-
called "reliable" brands are probably good for 150K miles max (with occasional
exceptions) before the driveline or body are totally shot or require expensive
work. On the other hand, those "unreliable", properly-maintined Audis are
often good for well beyond 250K miles, and you'll still have something left
worth rebuilding when your engine finally gives up. It's a simple case of pay
a little bit now or pay big later -- and those that don't understand or respect
their machines usually ignore the former and default to the latter. The un-
fortunate part is that some of the best-engineered, reliable, fun cars avail-
able get black-balled, while mediocre disposable cars with benign character
become vaunted icons of "reliability" in the eyes of an ignorant public.
Okay, you can have your soapbox back now....

Yep, youngsters sometimes have a power of concentration that lapses with uh, er,

Anyway, *my* 4.5YO son is tasked with the awesome responsibility of keeping my

My experience is with CIS-E (KE-Jetronic) on '86 5000S and '86 GTI.
Is "Frequency Valve" the idle stabilizer or the fuel distributor's
differential pressure regulator? The stock wiring harness has the signal
from the idle stabilizer located at the coil, so I'll guess you mean that
one.
If the idle stabilizer signal is still "correcting" during off-idle
conditions (3000 RPM, in this case), then is there an absolute relationship
of duty cycle vs. mixture, or a relative-type of rate change?
The differential pressure regulator's current would seem to be one that
might get played with if enrichment is modified (like during WOT). Might
be worth monitoring that.

Agreed- closed-looped measurement of O2 sensor voltage would show any
mixture abnomalities. What would be an inexpensive way to determine the
DC offset (average mixture) of the bouncing reading? Cap and resistor?
This is one area of measurement where I would like to use those analog
meters (with the high-impedance front end, of course) so I can read the
min/max bounce myself and also see dynamic trends.
Those LED bargraph O2 sensor meters do that compensation, right?
