Actually ride feels softer than stock.

I had pro-kit, now sportlines.. The difference is very small, like 5mm. If you are going to buy springs for first time just get the sportlines...

Hopefully I will have some pictures somewhere, il try dig them out. Basically if you get your car on a ramp you will see the fuel tank at the rear right side, from this you will see some kind of casing which contains the fuel lines protected from foreign debris naturally.

A couple of hours later they called me and said that the noise is coming from somewhere inside the oil pan, maybe from the the oil pump's chain or it's tensioner and that they have to remove the oil pan in order to check.

Just wondering if there's anyone out there that knows a guy or has one for sale. Also, if anyone has smoothed out the Audi badge, please post pics! Unrelated to the above, can ...

He also noticed that I need a new alternator belt...

I'm afraid they will give me the same answer, that nothing is wrong and this is a normal sound of the engine.

Did they say where the noise was coming from?

Greetings fellow Roccers! Unforunately my first post here has to be a problem description...

This happens only if I press the accelerator very smoothly and only between 1500...
