2003 Audi RS6 - new purchase
| 
I wasn't sure I would even like the RS6 because it is automatic and a bigger chassis. After learning from the dealer that the owner had a chip and exhaust installed, I was more interested. The stock HP figures were 450hp and he said this one had over 500hp. At that time all I knew it had was a computer chip and a cat-back exhaust. I drove it and the power was amazing and spool up time for the turbos were really quick. The transmission had normal automatic mode (drive), sport mode (automatic downshifts and quicker shifts), and full manual mode with paddle shifters. After working with the dealership for a while, we came to an acceptable price for purchase. So I bought the car and traded in our 2004 Dodge Durango because we were no longer going to need it to haul the trailer and Formula Ford . I drove it home and every time I stepped on the gas it made me smile. What I love about turbos is if you drive the car normal you don't realize you have more power. Plus when I was easy on the accelerator I was getting 25mpg on the highway. Hotchkis sport front and rear sway bars K&N air filter 19"x9" wheels with 255/40/19 tires (selling with the S4) Milltek stainless steel cat-back exhaust systems Milltek turbo downpipes with high flow cats With all of the above modifications it is faster and handles better than the stock RS6, which is an amazing feat giving its super car status.
When does a timing belt need to be replaced on 2003 Audi A4?
I have a 2003 Audi A4 with 75K miles on it. The dealer is pushing to have the timing belt replaced, but it isn't recommended in the user manual until 105K miles. I have seen a lot of problems with premature breakage on the late 90s models. Has this problem been fixed or is it still an issue? I am driving from OK to Alaska in January and really don't want to have it break driving through Canada....
Thanks!
To be safe, I'd go ahead and get the timing belt replaced in the next month or two. Yes, the manual may say 105K as the replacement interval, but sometimes they go out around 90K. You'll find owners who will replace the TB at 70-80K as a precautionary measure.
In any case, I would get it replaced before you go on any cross country drive. It's not cheap to do (around $1000 - most of that is labor) but compared with a belt breakage and the resultant damage, it's well worth it. Be sure also to replace the water pump at the same time as well as the ancillary equipment such as tensioner, pulley, etc.

Stanley fighting champ ordered to sell his vehicles
AN ultimate fighting champ and his wife are being forced to sell their cars to repay some of the money they made during a three-year tax fraud.
Ian Freeman was convicted in March of evading income tax and national insurance by not declaring his earnings from bouts around the world.
He and his wife Angela, 35, a pharmacy assistant, also received £12,352 in tax credits to which they were not entitled, during the same period.
The County Durham couple were spared prison sentences, but have been pursued by Revenue & Customs under Proceeds of Crime Act legislation.
Yesterday, the Freemans' barristers and prosecutors agreed on the level of the couple's benefit, and what assets they have available to meet the bill.
Freeman - dubbed The Machine by ultimate fighting fans - gained £30,286, and has to pay £4,250 from the sale of his Mercedes and private plate.
His wife is said to have benefited to the sum of 6,837 and has been ordered to pay back £6,490 from the sale of her Audi A4 and registration plate.
