Skid Plate V8

**TempleU_WS6** · 12-08-2008, 05:14 PM

So I never mentioned anything about it but the skid plate under my car has V8 written on it and I thought that was kinda weird.

I just noticed that the 219mile CETA that ls1camino posted has the same thing.

So it had to of came from the factory like that. Why do you think they would write V8 on it? different K-members than they V6's?

Anyone else have this written on their K-member skid plate?

Man! Your car is way cleaner underneath than mine is!

If mine did... I don't think I'd be able to see it anyway

probably for the tards at jiffy lube. Otherwise they wouldn't know how many quarts of oil to put in.

Mines still on there with nearly 60k miles. Mostly garaged though.

No way that CETA has seen any amount of time at Jiffy lube with 219 miles on the clock. Its never left the dealer showroom either, no title ever issued.

Mine has it. I just figured it was from the production line.

Well, that makes me feel a little better

This is what I saw when my car was up on the lift

**noxside** · 12-09-2008, 10:17 AM

Mine too has that written on it, i figured the dealership did it

**TempleU_WS6** · 12-09-2008, 10:53 AM

So most of us have it and FearLs1 doesnt.

Someone has to know the answer!

Did you see my post? I was agreeing with you that the V8s and the V6s had different k-members.

the v6 k member thas the eng sitting back and the ls1 sits out. so when the motor mounts are on the trans stays in the same place for the a4. but its probly not much diffrent
