My Son and I just became owners of a 1983 Turbo Quattro Coupe. We picked the
car up in San Jose 2 weekends ago and drove it back to Denver where we live.
It really does seem to be a pretty nice example. The previous owner spent lots
of $ on upgrades. Such as, Water Cooled Turbo, Shrich Asymmetrical Cam,
ABT(Taxi) dash modifications with Boost Gauge, Pyrometer, Oil Pressure and
installed a 4000 water temp gauge in the original dash. He also installed an
Intended Acceleration waste gate and CPU. He also installed Eisbach Springs with
Boge Dampners. It even has Recarro Seats and a MOMO steering wheel. All the
original stuff came with it as well. The car has or had about 68K when we picked
it up.
We are new to Audi's and have a number of questions. Any help you can give will
be most appreciated.
* What shop manual do you recommend? Does anyone have any experience with
the ALL DATA CD?
* What is the proper procedure for checking the cooling fan operation and
after run feature? Mine seem to be operating sporatically. The water pump for
the turbo should run at what times?
* The car was staring hard cold and hot. We replaced the Thermal switch and
that helped the cold start. But, what should I look at for hot starting.
* The car passed the "E" test here in Colorado with no problems. It's pretty
stringent. So, most of the systems must be operating properly.
* BTW the previous owner replaced the entire exhaust including Cat.
* I am interested in going +1 for the summer months. What OEM Audi wheels
will fit. What is the Max Tire size?
* Oh Yeah, is there a "secret" to replacing the air filter??
As you may be able to tell, We are most excited about the car. I know we have
lot's of questions. Hope this isn't a burden to the group.
BTW anyone have suggestions for Part's purchasing? Anyone publish a catalog?
How about a recommendation for a shop in Denver if the work get's above me?
Thanks in advance for your help
