Well guys. I'm taking the plunge.
I am getting my 55k service done tomorrow.
After reading ZF's recommendations of 60k - 90k service on the tranny I am getting the tranny fluid, filter, and gasket done. I am also getting the diffs serviced as well. ( my vehicle was 100% used previously to tow w/o question .... so doing the service on the earlier window since I dont know how hard they were pushing it ).
While my mechanic is in there here comes a boatload of upgrades.
1. 034 motorsports x-brace and stretch bolts - https://store.034motorsport.com/034...-s4-rs4-a5-s5-rs5-q5-sq5-billet-aluminum.html & https://store.034motorsport.com/x-b...me-hardware-kit-for-b8-5-facelift-models.html
2. 034 motorsports drive train mount inset kit - tranny mount insert, diff mount insert, diff carrier insert. https://store.034motorsport.com/034...-s4-rs4-a5-s5-rs5-q5-sq5-billet-aluminum.html
3. 034 motorsports rear subframe mount inserts ( also ordering new factory stretch bolts ) - https://store.034motorsport.com/bil...rt-kit-b8-b8-5-audi-s4-rs4-s5-rs5-q5-sq5.html
4. 034 motorsports solid rear sway bar - https://store.034motorsport.com/034...-audi-q5-sq5-c7-c7-5-a6-s6-rs6-a7-s7-rs7.html
5. 034 motorsport rear sway bar endlinks and hardware - https://store.034motorsport.com/sway-bar-end-link-motorsport-rear-b8-audi-a4-s4-a5-s5-q5.html
I'm going to have them align it as well.
I figure I cant have an sq5 tdi.... so I'm going to make mine probably handle better than an sq5 into rsq5 territory... this is only what i am doing for now.....
Thoughts recommendations? ( all stuff is on order already hahahha )
