I think it's an Audi thing not a 2.8 thing.

I am not a VR6 guy, but I have not heard too many complaints about the motor when we have the 1.8T vs. VR6 arguments on IA.


JITB- I suggest getting a VWvortex account and going under the fortitude(audi section) and posting your questions. I am sure you will get plenty of feedback.
