I'm in for it now - just bought a '91 CQ over the weekend.
It has been very well maintained over the last 6 years by the previous owner and he has had most major components replaced over the years. The "bomb" needs to be replaced, but there is a guy close to me in Colorado that rebuilds them for a reasonable amount. There are a few minor console lights out, but other than that the car is nearly flawless inside and out. Hopefully it remains fairly reliable!
I don't have pics yet, but I will soon. I'm sure I'll be around more asking questions, etc. as I get more aquanted with this car in the coming months. But I'm loving it so far and it's a nice change of pace from my tired old 4000 quattro.

where in Colorado are you located?
I'm in Denver.. maybe you could let me know who does "bomb" rebuilds. I usually go to Sterling Service for just about anything- they're a great independent shop for Audis here in town, but a bit pricey at times.

I'm in Parker, the guy is in Castle Rock
His name is Russ Southerlin and you can find his email address on 20v.org in Problem & Fixes > Brake & Brake & Hydraulic Problems (<a href="http://www.20v.org/brakprob.htm">http://www.20v.org/brakprob.htm</a>). Although he charges about $10 more than the $50 mentioned on that web page.
I plan on trying to get together with him in the next few weeks and he may help me install the rebuilt unit as well. Another person I know with a CQ might be interested in replacing his as well, maybe if we get the three of us together we can do them all at the same time. I don't have a garage anymore, so I'm hoping to "borrow" someone elses garage to do it.
I plan on using Parker Audiworks for my service in the future. They did some work on my 4000 a few weeks ago and they seemed like good people. Nice to know that I have a dedicated Audi mechanic close to me.
