RE: S4 /A4Q

Interesting. The last thing I heard was that Audi didn't even know what
the problem was (of course, that was a while back, so...) except that a
belt kept on breaking. Halted production of the engine completely. If
it's a supplier's fault, it would be back up and running fairly quickly,
but there was some speculation it could be the 5th valve adding some
strain, and if it is it's a redesign...
