havent done much of anything lately since michigan decided it was time for all of this shit
had a really great christmas with my girl and the pup. only thing i got that was car related was an audi flag, got a lot of house shit though which is always much needed since my vehicles tend to steal all of that money lol
i did however swap my sway bar endlinks up front so they are on correct. i accidentally installed them backwards when i did the front end and it created a very annoying clunk. along with that i had my buddy vagcom the car yesterday and the root of all my problems is a bad ground somewhere. multiple short to grounds presented themselves including the n75 which should explain my low boost!
and then i stumbled across this beer while grabbing a christmas present at the liquor store and it is my new favorite! how could you resist that marketing?!

so you guys remember that first line for this thread? this pretty much embodies that fully. 4 months of ownership with low boost, as well as shitty running and it all comes down to a damn fuse
took it for a short cruise after swapping it with my sunroof fuse. it definitely pulled harder but, it did only hit 5psi. gonna push it a bit harder when i get out of work to see if it was just because i didnt give it enough.

poor thing hasnt been washed since the day i got it legal
car is running much better since i changed the fuse and it still hasnt blown. im fairly convinced the reasoning was the n75 i originally changed since the casing was broken. ill have to get my friend to vagcom it again and clear the codes because my reader wont actually clear them so i can see if something else is wrong. other than those shenanigans i have a buddy trying to find a mbc he said i could have, then i can up the boost until i eventually get a wideband and a tune. aeb 1.8t's lack alot of the later sensors audi put on so its kind of hard to tune them without a wideband from what ive heard.

If you have an Android phone you can pick up an OBDII bluetooth dongle and then run Torque on your phone to read and clear codes. It's surprisingly good and reads all the codes and is able to clear them and also has the upside of being able to read and display a lot of engine parameters. For the most part I barely touch VAGCOM anymore.

..... about 2 hours later i had told the guy to drop them off at my house, threw him $800 and i was the regretful owner of 2 broken b5 a4's.
that quattro lure gets you everytime.
for the record my b5 1.8t MT avant was one of all time favorites, that thing in the snow was just...tits.
i love how everyone whos owned one knows exactly how you feel.

also the snow started melting a bit around here and so the truck may finally make its way into the garage. so watch for those updates. i really wanna rip the heater out, possible wire tuck, gut the interior, maybe lower it even more, and im gonna start looking into some new wheels. i want a dope cruiser for the summer!
