I've had just about every brand of car there is, this is my 1st Audi and so far I'm loving it! Is there a must do mods list? I am thinking of changing the chrome rings to black like car. The car has just about everything all ready! 57K miles on her.

Hope to be able to contribute one day when I have gathered info/knowledge. Until then I'll watch read and listen.

Welcome aboard! My first love was Chevies, having worked on mostly everything from 1925 on up. Just sold a 1968 Impala project I have had since 95' that I will never finish. Still have a 70' Chevelle I got just out of high school, did a frame-off, but it still needs to be finished.
Browse through the forum and you will that the first thing you want to do is purchase a VCDS from ross-tech if you do not have one already.
Besides being able to personalize your car, it is important for diagnostic capabilities as well as resetting the service indicator.
Do take the time to add pictures of your ride to your garage, we love to look at these cars as much as you do.
Again, welcome aboard from Connecticut!

My current Chevy is an 68' impala fastback SS427. Not long ago I sold our 68 Chevelle and 69 El Camino SS, the impala is a very rare version and I didn't want to be paying insurance for 7 cars at that time plus maintenance!
no ross tech yet, I have been browsing the forums. Still unsure if I'm going to need winter wheels and tires yet. Always ran studded snows on the bmw to no avail any snow over an inch lol
