My A4 struggled to start this morning. It's a 2008. Why do you do this to me Audi?

About the right time for a factory battery to be out of service (if it's still the factory one).

Don't think it was the battery.

When I got it turned over, it shook for a couple seconds. Ran Kinda rough.

It's still idling though.

Indeed, and my mums Murano's steering is making odd noises, and the Z is still in need of tires/wheels (trying to decide wheel sizes, I'm not sure if I can put 10 inch wides in the front and not rub :P

It's in the 50s outside today. So not especially.

Might just be time for a Tune-Up

Oh Noes. If my Gw250 doesn't start up either. I'm not going to be a happy camper

Nice, Have you chosen the wheels yet? Or still contemplating them?

Well, it's your ride so you would know. But just as an aside, if it's the factory battery it's probably on its way out anyway.

Alex B > jkm7680
04/18/2014 at 11:10

Maybe.

jkm7680 > crowmolly
04/18/2014 at 11:11

Yep, Yep. It's probably time for a new battery also. Tune up in general probably too.

change that crank sensor!

Or pull the codes and see if it is intermittent at least

Lol, I hope the Beetle will start when it warms up a bit, and I wish I could have the TE37's still, but I'm 99 percent sure on Enkei RPF1's, just need to choose dimensions (18 by..something, lol) and then choose tire sizes.. Michelin Pilot SS's im also 99 percent sure of, haha

if it's anything like my BMW, a battery on its last legs makes the whole car do weird things

A fresh set of plugs and a TB decoke.

Ohohohoh, btw, I sound something that sounds better then straight pipes on a Z!! Unfortunately the company that made them is no more though :/ But...I am heavily considering no F/I'ing the Z now, and jsut making it a N/A beast. Watch and listen :D

Very Nice! On a similar note, I've been looking into Asa Gt06 Wheels for my A4. which look similar to the Enekis.

Oh Noes, I don't remember seeing it? Was it today?

The Tiger possibly ate it :P

yes -.- I found a new engine note for the Z, and it's prettier the straight pipes,but the company that makes the specific long pipes is no longer :/ But... I am considering building the Z into a N/A mmonster rather then F/I now..but still time to choose :P
