Never Trust the Dealer

Post by Jabbafumi » Thu Oct 02, 2008 2:10 pm

A friend of mine took his RS4 in for a Service to an Audi dealer here in South Africa, the technicians working on the car decided to call their buddies at VW next door who brought a GTI to the party, they met and decided to have a little race, below is the result.

Quite an easy mod - a bit like the disconnecting the valves, but this time you just move the engine back about a foot...
