    Part Numbers

    Hi guys. I bought a copy of ETKA from eBay but have lost the serial number, so can't get it to run. Doh! Can anyone look up a number for me please? 078 103 604 H Its a sump pan that I bought for my A4 but got the wrong one. Doh again! I need to know which models/engines it does fit so I can...

    Brake Servo Issue?

    Hi all, once again I find myself needing to call on your collective wisdom. I've had a trawl about with the search function and got some tips, but still missing a few bits of info. I did a track day at Silverstone on Sunday, the first in the A4 (1998 2.4 V6 saloon) and I found after about 3 laps...

    Oil Leak

    Doh! So after finally sorting out the head gasket and then my overheating issues (stupidity on my part that one) I found another problem. Parked car in the garage (without undertray, never got round to refitting it) and there was a pool of oil developing under the front. I washed off the engine...

    This Looks "Wrong" To Me. What Do You Think?

    So I finally spent some time on the car and got the drivers side head off. Although I can see no obvious point of failure on the head gasket (cylinder 3 was low on compression) it doesn't look right to me. It seems that cylinder two may not have been firing? Seems to be almost brand new compared...

    Cooling System Woe

    Can I call on your collective wisdom and expertise guys? The radiator crapped out on my 1998 A4 2.4 earlier this week. I have just changed it out, refilled the cooling system (no leaks) and started to bleed it up. After about half an hour I am still not getting hot air through the heater vents...

    A4 Workshop Manual

    Hi all. I have no doubt this has been covered before, but my search engine fu is weak and I can't find anything! Is there a Haynes type manual available for the A4 (B5) 2.4 V6? I can find a 4 cylinder manual but nothing else. If not (as a last resort) what are everyones thoughts on the CD...

    Evenin'

    Hi all! Pete's the name, a middle aged fat lad from Notts/Derbys, just sold on my BMW 328 Coupe at the weekend and replaced it with an A4 (B5) 2.4 V6. So far I'm absolutely loving it! :wub: So much more refined than the Beemer. Look forward to "meeting" you all in the forums.
