    So I had this crazy idea, how about this for an engine for my A3...

You can not use one battery to back up the other battery because they are connected in series as well as their respective alternators. The alternators are Isolated ground as...

I think A3 tires destruct prematurely is cause the Military inflated them to 45 psi max due to CTIS and the tire itself sez it carries it's...
