RACERD12, I'm not going to post numbers for the world to see, your reply will probably be I knew he isn't a tech. WHATEVER. In reference to the oil filter issue,Personally I like factory filters. Wix filters are very good we used to use them on heavy equiptment alot.Mann is another very good filter, that is who makes filters for Audi and other euro manufactures, at least that is what I've been Told. Do not like fram or purolator the metal of the can seems cheesy. Therion is Amsoil really that good I've been thinking of using it in the dirtbikes.

I haven't used Amsoil's 2 stroke oil personally, but alot of my buddies use Amsoil in their jetskis and they love it.

i have had an A4 since 98. It now has 200k miles on it. I recently had a head job done because a tech at audi crossthreaded a spark plug and ruined the hole. Other than that the only things that i have done are brakes and the semi annoying upper a arm links on the front suspension. The audi is a wonderfull car, snow,rain,ice, where? I never even notice. The cars reliability is great and handling is even better. The 1.8 T has a ton of easy modifications that can be made, not cheap, but fairly easy. A4 all the way, the nissan isnt as well made or as much fun to drive in the snow.

If you dont want the whole world to see then PM me the numbers and if they are REAL then I will admit I was wrong. However not posting just makes you look more like a fake.

That's ok, GlennPeters, we don't need to see yer #'s. If yer certified, yer certified. If yer not, yer not. We'll "argue" with you just the same....ha hah ha ha ha. Even a back yard mechanic can have more experience than a cert. tech. Not to put Racer12 down, but he is still in high school and has a lot to learn, can ya tell by the way he's buggin' ya? Besides, being certified doesn't necessarily mean squat (unless yer applying fer a job). In case he didn't know, this is a forum not a job offer. And everyone knows opinions are like a**holes, only in this forum, we wanna hear 'bout yours. We only ask that you leave out the part about using corn for texture, eh? :)
P.s. Even if you are a "fake", you've written some legit. things. Master Tech, Master Bator, it's all the same. Can't learn it without the hands-on experience.
