    Ah, there is nothing quite like the feeling of accomplishment to be utterly destroyed in a millisecond with a single sound of threads being snapped with 75 in/lb on the coilpack bolt...

    Indeed it does. Pat gets things done.

    He has the APR file, so no relocation necessary.

    Tell me about it. When I was checking my smart phone every 5 seconds when all you nice fellas were sending me information/advice when I was buying my RS6, my husband kept needling me, "are you talking to your new gearhead boyfriends again?" (I'll be sure and remember that the next time he spends the whole day at West Marine buying stuff for his boat...)

    In any event, I can think of things that would be far less romantic than spending a whole day working on an RS6 (*winks*).

    I'll bring the beer. Rachel can join us! I'm sure this is exactly what she wants to do with her Saturday.

    Yes ,for the record I do not have a Y chromosome. Some of us girls love cars too! Totally loving my RS6...when I can manage to pry the keys out of my husband's death grip. He didn't even want me to buy the beast and now he begs me to drive it every day...go figure!
