i will soon be offering a repare service for the intake manifold problem i have been working on it for a while now and have made brand new components out of self lubricating PTFE and they are coming on great much much more freedom for the components to operate i belive this will also solve the problem of broken linkages for people too as the movement has been improved ten fold is it true that audi will not repare an intake manifold but instead sell you a new one at the cost of £700 ? or have i heard that wrong ? many thanks i will soon post up some pictures

well what do you think would be a good price that people would be willing to pay for a referbed intake manifold ?
this will include a butterfly valve service egr valve strip down ad clean torque valves repare and uprated bushings Ptfe inserts for the main shaft and of course a jolly good clean up to rid of the exsess carbon build up that you get i think a new manifold is close to 600 if not more and as far as im aware there is no service offered at the moment for restoring a complete intake manifold thoughts ? prices ? and of course any body want to place an order ? first 5 will get a 20% discount on what is decided to be the price with your help of course its been a long time coming but now its been developed i can now offer this service
