It's one of my fave movies. In fact, I think Netflix / Prime just added it.
You suckas should watch it!

fuckin USPS...paid priority shipping for the coolant fitting...says delivered 2 days ago but nope, nowhere to be seen.
Called ECS and they say they have to wait for a few days to put in a claim, understandable but annoying that my car has been down a week because of it.
Lucky I have 2 others, right?
Called local Cuck dealership and they have it in stock for same price.

I personally somewhat dislike standard wagons, but something
about these offroad lifted watons really doesnit for me haha.
Congrats J! I hope your wallet is able to withstand the repeated beatings an old VW will provide. ![Ninja](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/ninja.gif)
In all seriousness, enjoy it. Always nice to have a beater sitting around.

But, c'mon. For an Audi?
No one is paying a premium to get parts faster. You can enjoy looking at the car in your driveway, rain pounding away, making it wet, with or without it actually running.

Amazon sends a replacement.... what do you know.. first shipment arrives after replacement.
Tried to send back the first time, Amazon wanted me to pay for return. Ha!
If any of you suckers want a $200 HP p/s hose.. lmk. Pay for shipping and 6 pack (craft brew of course)![Bite Lip](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/bitelip.gif)

I have 2 fun amazon stories...
1) bought b a self contained sub for like $190...she didn't want it, tried to return and they said nope, lithium ion battery...keep it and take refund.
2) i accidentally sent a baby towel to macy's and the ray ban's that belonged in that macy's box to amazon...needless to say, sort facility never found the glasses (wonder why)...after some back and forth about my mistake, they gave me a $100 credit for my troubles.
They made a customer for life.
Nice offer, Joe...I'm assuming for the TL?

My GF is like, why do you pay for PRIME.
I'm like, girl...I'm so Optimus...

Okay, so...knock on wood but...replaced that broken radiator hose(s) fitting...and got to drive it...firstly...idle is stable and perfect now, no more bucking.
Driving it is smooth now...and I've gone 100 miles and it's 260 to empty which is already an improvement so I'm sure some of the CEL was running inefficiently.
Speaking of which...don't want to speak too soon but cleared fault codes yesterday...so far 2 drives, about 15 miles each and no CEL.![Woot](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/woot.gif)

I need to clear that Airbag code and see what's throwing it...it's due for the airbag recall too...
Cleaning up so well though.

LOL...
it's coming together nicely, I enjoy driving it and getting great gas mileage.
What I should do is sell it and the Wagon and get the SC AWD Full CUCK platform and THEN stage II that bitch.
I'm tempted to Stage II this one though...springs...Stage II...some other OEM Audi 18's...
but that's a slippery slope.
How serious are you about wanting 2 wagons?

you're too much, Andrew.
Okay, well...some things addressed. Got my wheels balanced and although my friend can work some serious wizardry...he couldn't do anything about one rim that was bent and had a nail in the side AND had fix-a-fat.
![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
Really updated the look of the car without breaking the bank.
Also noted that the 2nd catalytic had something majorly loose in it that made a horrid noise when taking off...
had that taken care of, Florida style
![Rock Star](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/rockstar.gif)
Actually a nice little vroom vroom noise now and it actually did bump the turbo feel a bit. I imagine a stage tune would be fun on this thing.
While wheels were off, took advantage and cleaned brake dust and the like off the wells and calipers. Not bad for an 11 year old car with 186K miles. Florida/Cali car!
Chocolate starfish center caps
Y'all already know I had to clean them up proper!

I don't dig it.. looks like a dodge caliber.
The previous wheels looked better IMO.
I know you're a 10 s(poke) guy

LOL...I can see that, I guess.
But maybe it's the angle. They modernize the car a LOT, IMO.
Although I will admit, I didn't hate the old wheels.
New tires are a LOT quieter and being wider, they are also only about 3 pounds heavier. Which is awesome.

I think smaller diameter wheels with thinner spokes and a 3-4" drop would be killer
