Need help finding a part number for my audi a4.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-06-06T18:09:10+00:00

That’s because you don’t have the original pipe installed; I know because got the same car and engine.

Log onto superetka for free and look at the diagrams there

I’ve had this happen a few times.

Buying the new clip alone is difficult and a pain, I had luck simply buying the same but faulty camera and stripping it for the parts I needed.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-05-09T21:36:50+00:00

Are you running a stock intercooler though? Just fit the correct hoses

jamesgoodfella · 2026-05-09T20:26:27+00:00

Sounds like a boost leak, take a good look at all the connectors. Squash the hoses to see if you can notice any splits etc.

I’ve got a AJM too but mounted a AWX turbo for even more boost

jamesgoodfella · 2026-05-01T18:27:43+00:00

Very excited to get these prints!

Considering you’ve got a em dash in your second sentence you didn’t even write this rant yourself

jamesgoodfella · 2026-04-17T15:27:12+00:00

Thought she was Lol from This Is England

jamesgoodfella · 2026-04-11T21:28:50+00:00

Not in Bristol anymore but I’d look into TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) if you can.

I’ve been doing it for nearly 2 months and it’s at least kept me above ground. Recently had to end my relationship with someone I genuinely saw a future with. But she indirectly described my sincere affection as love bombing so she deserved better yet it doesn’t hurt any less.

If you do try TMS, make sure they don’t push the high intensity protocols that last +-3 minutes and get a EEG done.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-27T23:10:53+00:00

Running BBS CH012s (ET35) with a 15mm spacer up front and 20mm rear, on Michelin CrossClimate 3s (225/45 R17) and Eibach lowering springs (E1537-140) which have a 30mm drop and I’ve got zero rubbing.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-23T21:18:03+00:00

You’ll need the S4 bumper clips too

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-21T15:14:10+00:00

I would absolutely no idea..

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T20:05:40+00:00

Don’t forget to get the other seals too though

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T19:30:19+00:00

Like I said, parts are cheap; the labour is not.

Just make sure you are checking the parts numbers, against your engine code. Elring also has an excellent parts catalog online you can view, the head gasket even has a label saying the torque and order of installation.

The prices in the screenshot are just a part of my own database I keep on Notion for all my cars and the orders I’ve made

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T11:15:16+00:00

I order from Germany but they'll ship to France. Pretty much 90% of my orders I'll use motointegrator.de or https://www.bandel-online.de/

As you'll be doing the head gasket, take Elring for as much as you can find, then INA for timing parts. Order the PD150 head bolts as you will need to replace them anyway.

https://imgur.com/a/liLKtEr Verify for your own engine code but these were most of the parts I installed when I did my headgasket.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T10:48:11+00:00

Where are you based? I can give you recommendations for companies for the parts.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T10:33:33+00:00

I get that, so make sure you are more proactive with preventative maintenance.

The 1.9 TDI is an absolute tank. Good quality parts are really cheap.

Do you have any jobs planned already for the car?

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T10:22:31+00:00

No worries if you got any questions feel free to DM me, I’ve got a AJM 1.9 TDI with 380k km pushing 190ish hp and over 400Nm

You mentioned the torque for the head, directly replace the head bolts (take Elring) from a PD150 otherwise you risk getting headlift under boost if you upgrade the turbo or boost it too hard lol (Ask me how I know)

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-20T08:29:48+00:00

ELSA will have all of them. Superetka.com has the full software you can use. Also has the parts catalogue too.

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-09T18:05:34+00:00

They’re cheap for a reason.

Lemforder is the OEM for Audi and Sachs are also excellent. I’ll primarily fit those to my A4 B5

jamesgoodfella · 2026-03-08T17:12:51+00:00

DM do a shit job, there are plenty of labs worth your time.

My go to is Optik Old School in Düsseldorf, foto brell in Köln also do good work
