i think this would be helpfull for newbies!!!!

[COT51E]

time will soon come round when i will be traveling far and wide to view some hopefully nice s4's. but like many people new to the 2.7 engine where and what do we need to be looking for. its ok saying check this check that but if i don't know what it looks like in the first place it can become quite daunting and may miss looking for vital wear signs.

could anyone take a good clear picture of their engine bay and highlight the locations of say dv's/maf's/f hoses/n75's etc etc etc anything that could cause potential leaks and shorten the turbo life. what signs to look for on each item. also anything else you guys can think of to assist.

would be good if you guys could copy the pic (if provided) "paste on your arrow or number + description" of item and as time passes we might end up with a bay full of arrows/numbers pointing to vital hardware to look for when viewing a car

even hard to see parts could be "given an arrow/number" to show rough location and what part looks like.

i have done a search for such diagrams but found nothing.

THIS COULD BE OF GREAT HELP TO US NEWBIES TO THE S4.

Cheers guys and look forward to some interesting posts, pete!
