Re: FUEL PUMP / RELAY & HEAT

Hot relays are common complaints on Audis, and the consensus seems to be
that the stock
relay is over -taxed to handle the current flow.  You can begin to help the
problem by
cleaning the contacts of the relay and crimping the female contacts in the
receptical
using a small screwdriver, so the connection to the relay spades will be
tighter. There 
have been recent postings by others re -installing a larger capacity under
the seat. Mike Posner. San Diego.
