Is it "this one's on the house, but another one will cost ya?" 2) If I were to pony up the cash and buy one, does anyone know how much they run? 3) Looks pretty simple to swap out......is it? Thanks! I want an RS4.

I think they have to warranty them forever tho, its a Transport Canada issue. They only have to fix the oil leaks tho, unless its really pooched inside. 91 Eagle Talon TSi AWD 5spd 91 Eagle 2000 GTX AWD 5spd

Now that I am down here, I wonder if it's applicable. I think I have a leak somewhere.....I have looked and looked, and I just can't determine a logical place where it could be leaking from, so MEH! I want a whole new one.........gimme! I want an RS4.
