B5 S4's are not unreliable. People tune them, over stress them and then wonder why they break. After 18 years ownership my stock S4 has now covered 297k miles and has never let me down.

Where you gone Dan

man the video would be so good if i didn't have to watch you struggling with that power washer for the most of it :D (Very nice S4 btw BIG fan)

You’ve made the right impulsive decision!! Love it mate

I love this type of walk around. As someone who owns an A4 B5 and loves washing my car, this is such a vibe.

Beautiful! Keep them coming, another Imola B5 S4 owner here. Not many on KZfaq

I bought mine stock, pulled the motor and did a total overhaul. All new seals. Gaskets, wear items, aaaaand ditched the auto trans for an 01E 6 speed, threw on some SRM k04s and all the extra jazz. Its been epic. Totally reliable. Insanely fast at 27psi tune. But.. push past 500 AWHP and you WILL break things on the 2.7tt. Unless you girdle the mains to keep the webbing from cracking. You WILL break rear diff/diff mounts without strengthening it if youre launching or doing NLS all the time. But the AVANT b5 S4 is the best. I may be biased😂 the 1.8t B5 A4 is INSANELY buildable and rock freaking solid and dumb easy to work on and build. My best advice as someone who owns 5 audis, 2 S4s, 2 A4s, all built, and an A6.. the 1.8t is crazy fun and can be crazy fast very easily. The 2.7tt can be reliable but you should do what i did. Motor pull right off the bat and redo everything then youll be good. People just dont do proper maintenance. It isnt a honda😂 its a very precise and robust motor and chassis you cant clap em out thrash em and expect them to LOVE it😂

I have 01 brilliant black Avant stage 2. I love that car. I keep replacing parts but still cheaper than a new Audi car payment.

Buy a Nilfisk power washer next time maybe - Nice Car.

Please come back , loved ur vids made me forget about everything else and just enjoy. Where u goooo…

Good content as usual - keep the lemon in the double garage and loving the new drive I should bring my type r FL8 and we could do a vid ?

RIP daniel, i did enjoy your videos 😭

Excellent video mate 👍🏽

Lovely car. What wheels are those? Look great

Gained a sub. Got an 02 imola at home.

It's clearly already been a project car of someone else. Do you have any plans for it yet or is your aim to drive it a bit and see what (mods) takes your fancy?

Where are you man, you okay?

More B5 videos please :)

RIP DAN

So have you still got it?

where u gooo?

3:18 as soon as this sentence left your mouth I was like oh he's a dad and that's not his parents drive. Nice! Subbed

Have you still got your s3 8l?

Would you sell this car mate ?
