2.6 V6

[Z82]

Posted this in B5 forum but no answer so thought you lot might be able to help instead:

1996 2.6i V6 Quattro Sport 150BHP

I 'think' its the ABC? Im sure Audi only did the one 2.6 in the A4 but I know they did a 2.6 in the Coupe & 80 so my question is, is it the same engine that was in the Coupe/80?
Reason I want to know is its a bugger trying to source parts for my car so I thought it might be easier if I looked under Coupe/80 instead of A4.

After a bit of research I found this:

80 2.6 6/92 - 12/94

80 2.6E 7/92 - 12/94

A4 2.6 1/95->

A6 2.6 V6 6/94 - 2/97

Cabriolet 2.6E 6/93 - 7/94

Coupe 2.6E 8/92->



Does this look about right?

Just did a quick check on elsawin.
Audi 80 93-95 2.6 engine code ABC
Audi avant 93-96 2.6 engine code ABC
Audi cabriolet to 97 2.6 engine code ABC but changes in this model year to ACZ
Audi coupe to 96 2.6 engine code ABC
A4 to 97 2.6 engine code ABC but changes in this model year to ACZ

A4 to 97 2.6 engine code ABC but changes in this model year to ACZ

I didnt think they did a 2.6 in the A4 past 97

Thanks for the info though, it widens my scope now I can look for mods for the other cars

Elsawin doesn't say when in the model year the engine changes code but what i mean is that the ABC 2.6 was available in 97 but at some point in that year there was a change to the ACZ engine

The code should be on the data sticker (i think)
