Default PaulW- How about a "Recommended Mechanics" page on Audi Pages?

I nominate Pinnacle Auto in Woodridge, IL.
Contact Steve or Brian at:
630-512-0516
6809 Hobson Valley Dr #115
Woodridge, IL 60517


Just had this done there:

-Valve cover gaskets.
-Trans Filter/Fluid
-Trans rear seal
-Oil sending unit

I supplied parts, labor total was $375 not including tax. I'll be they would do the tozoA8 procedure as well.

Default If you want to start, please do!

If you can make two pages.....one for parts suppliers and another for mechanics.....just make the two pages and email them to me.

I'll put them on the Technical and Maintenance page.....Thanks!

It probably won't take more than an hour....and probably 1/2 hour for you!<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/80594.phtml">Here's the parts suppliers.</a></li></ul>

Default Just fine....

....I would put the links at the top or bottom of the existing links, not next to them, plus I would captalize the words....I'm making mountains out of mole hills.

For the "parts supplier" page, you could use the Upgrades and style main page as a template.

I would put the supplier catagories such as "fluids" and then the links to the suppliers as a list (so it indents), or "suspesnion parts" and the links to suppliers.....do you get my drift?

We could do the same for mechanics....but put them by region.

And if you could use the target=_blank for the links to outside suppliers, I think that would make it easier for the user.

Thanks!

Default Shouldn't have "Technical" and then "Maintenance"

And then an unordered list.....or whatever it is.

There is a section in the Bently labeled "Maintenace" and that's why it's there....someday I will post the Audi PDF of recommended maintenance or put something else like that.....

I like it, just get rid of "Technical" and make "Maintenace" not a topic, it will become a hyperlink someday....

Or just leave it to me!
