hi,this is my first post ,my 2 litre coupe gets very erratic and powerless in traffic,it only lasts until it gets some space and then it seems to go out of it again. otherwise it is fine but this problem is really bugging me ,also as i am in ireland nobody knows anything about coupes as they were never sold here so any advice would be great.

It sounds like it as I had my one changed about 5 years ago, but I wouldn't recommend you change it yourself as you need the computer to re set your engine control settings, exhaust emmissions etc. Hope this helps

I live in belfast and bought a coupe 2.3 20v quattro last november. I am curious to know is it true the coupe's were not sold in ireland - do you mean the north or the republic? would be grateful for any info.

also, has anyone fitted powerflex bushes to a quattro? is it dificult?

Thanks

hi ,in the south of ireland coupes were never sold so any parts needed have to be got from the uk,thankfully there is some good suppliers of used parts in good condition there.
