If the diff is indeed toast, what other applications are available? There's the obvious Audi 4000q diff, but what about later 80/90 series? I know of a...

... Nate, First off, don't panic: the presence of a little metal in your differential doesn't prove it's trash. Second, the rattle and hum could well have...
... This is what I call "The Sister Test." I think of my sister, and what she would do. (Normally, the answer is, ignore and get many, many more miles out of...
Some more information: The noise/vibration occurs at 30mph plus. It is dependant on throttle position, if I'm accelerating or decelerating I get the noise, if...
I have a diff if needed. You can use the interior parts out of a 4000Q-swap over your housing. ... From: Nate Mellom [mailto:doubt@...] Sent: Sunday,...
... Questions I didn't think of unitl later: * How many miles was this? * I assume you noticed no bronzey glint in the drained oil 2 years ago? If it was 15+...
... Well, that *does* sound like a driveline problem, but I wouldn't jump to that conclusion without checking the exhaust system thoroughly. A resonance driven...
OK, I guess I will have to put in my 2 cents worth. I don't reply much but I do read all the posts. On the subject of oil. Temp is the enemy. The Quantums only...
I wouldn't discount the center bearing so easily. Mine have always looked fine when the start howling. Try packing some greese in there and see if it helps...
I don't think 3.8qts is unusually small capacity for a 2.2L auto engine. I have been running a PH8A filter on mine to get an extra quart of Mobil 1 in there,...

3.8 quarts is small for a VW engine.. My 89 cabriolet with the 1.8l 4-banger took 5 quarts of oil. I think oil capacity has a lot to do with the Q's temp...
A reminder re. the 12 qt + oil capacity of the Porsche 911: Until recently, they weren't just air-cooled cars. They were air-cooled, with oil cooling coming in...

Hey guys, I installed my oil pressure sender today, and hooked things up the way I thought it was supposed to go. When I ran the car, the gauge was pegged all...
... turbodiesel? ... No - I don't think that one would fit very well; plus it's an oil-to- water cooler and I don't think a QSW would benefit from more heat in...

HELLO, I use a chikara dual oil filter set up, along with a permaflow oil cooler. The oil cooler has it's own fan attached, 1250 cfm. I can use 6 qt's. along...
