Aftermarket mods is probably another good one - ECU reprograms, intake, exhausts, Supercharger pulley mods, etc.. Everything related to increasing horsepower.

There was a thread about the DIY oil change that was full of pictures. That would be a good sticky item.

Guys,

Also check out the wiki function @ http://wiki.audiworld.com/index.php/FAQ ... we can do a model specific B8 S4 wiki there and link back through a post. I think that would be ideal as well.

2) the SD/USB/Ipod options, and what works and doesn't work.

3) Lowering and wheel fitment thread.

4) Damn rear camera question smh.

One Locked Thread. Posts to be submitted to moderator for acceptance and editing or only posts by moderator allowed. Each post would be different sections. Maybe first post some sort of introduction then on to the meat of things... or one long post divided into sections.

For example:

Engine and exhaust DIY's:
Oil change
redrocker55's Oil Analysis
Dipstick install
Engine air filter replacement? AWE intake install
Strat air filter cleaning
Motman break in technique
Exhaust install
Waterpump and thermostat install


Interior:
LED light Install
Subwoofer swap
Subwoofer w/ amp
V1 Hardwire 1
V1 Hardwire 2
Laser Jammer Isntall
Cabin air filter replacement 2
Under Seat Storage Bin Install
Pedal Cover swap
Steering wheel swap
AWE Boost Gauge Install
Center Console Removal
MMI Trim removal help
Key Fob Battery Change
Shift **** removal and install


Exterior:
Radiator protection screen (Lots of different methods to do this if you read the whole thread)
Front Bumper Removal, Grill Swap, Splitter Swap 2 3
Custom tow hook
Rear bumper, valence removal
filler plate swap
Debadging and SC badge install
Foglight changing/swap
HID Bulb install
Auto folding mirror install


Wheel, tire, and brakes

Aftermarket Master Wheel and Tire Thread?

VAG-COM Code lists
http://audienthusiasts.com/
http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...-complete-list
http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...-VAG-COM-codes


Aftermarket Mod Info:
MadManS4's B8 S4 Performance Spreadsheet
Exhaust shootout thread


etc...

Next post could be the B8 S4 Purchasing section (with motoman technique also in that section), then Recall/TSB Section, then whatever else.

Fill in the blanks, add links and it's most of the way done

I second that. It is hard to find thing while searching and hyperlinked topics would be great. As a relatively new user of the forum I hate to see some of the smart alec replies to some of the new users for a "dumb question". If you don't like the question or think it is too basic or stupid, just pass it by and don't comment on it.
