oh, 101K on originals...bought it with 69K. Always drive conservative the last few miles home and never run above 3K rpms until at least 175 degrees oil temp when the engine is cold.

turbo timer lets your car run at idle to continue to run oil/coolant through the turbos, even if you have already left the car via an ignition timer
can find some on ebay or the regular Audi tuners probably have them too

you take care of your car and he will take care of you!, most of the time. oil change, drive normal, no mods. I have 140k on mine, no problems. Cooldown helps. do the maintanance and i bet they last up to 200k.

93k and horror. Really if you are not buying brand new dude it is hard to say what you get unless you know the owner. Some of the jobs are very costly but overall it is a great engine with underpowered turbos. (Im putting larger ones on now). TB Service is rough, it you get one make sure that has been done.
