NEW KID QUESTION
HELLO- MY NAME IS DAN HAMREN AND I TOO AM AN AUDI QUATTRO FANATIC.  I
HAVE HAD 4 AUDI'S,  82 COUPE 87 5KCSQ WAGON, 80 Q AND NOW I HAVE
REVERTED BACK TO AN 87 5KCSQ WAGON.  I HAVE HAD ONLY ONE PROBLEM THAT I
CANT SEEM TO GET FIXED .  ABS BOING AT SLOW SPEEDS.  I NEVER HAD THE
PROBLEM UNTIL I CHANGED THE ROTORS/PADS.  EVEN MY MECHANICS DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO.  SO SOME ADVICE IS WHAT I NEED, OH AND YES A NEW MECHANIC IS
IN THE WORKS!  PS WHEEL SPEED SENSORS ARE SUPPOSEDLY AT THE RIGHT
DISTANCE. THANKS DAN THE MAN

Re: My turbo has been replacedFrom: Chris Woodward <cwoodwar@bellsouth.net>Subject: My turbo has been replacedBelieve it or not, my friendly dealership replaced my turbo this weekunder warranty.  Not a word was said about the TAP chip, so I'm not sureif they didn't know or just turned their heads.  The diagnosis was adefective wastegate, which I have heard was a problem with the earlier1.8T's.  I'm kind of sad to not be in the 1999 Passat V6 loaner anymore, though.  That tiptronic/V6 combo was loads of fun.In addition, they replaced my driver door window regulator after Icomplained of an odd noise as the window went down.  Hope that's thelast of that as I will soon be out of warranty (In Jan.)Date: Fri, 30 Oct 1998 23:06:00 -0400From: Chris Woodward <cwoodwar@bellsouth.net>Subject: My turbo has been replacedBelieve it or not, my friendly dealership replaced my turbo this weekunder warranty.
