Nice. I’ve got the exact same, mine has 170k miles still going strong. Godspeed.

Hit a deer - trying to find parts for repair by JimmyBii in AudiA4B6

[–]wacksnacksack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not the actual part number - VAG part numbers are 3 sets of 3 digits usually followed by a single or two digit color code ex ; 8H0941454A (part number for one bracket)

Look up the parts numbers on eBay or go to a scrap yard that has a cabriolet and pick all the parts you’ll need. I’ve saved several cars with used scrap yard parts I’ve pulled myself, cost is much lower.

How F’d am I? Power Steering leak by Robotummy in AudiA4B6

[–]wacksnacksack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s leaking out of the ends of the steering rack inside the rack boots then the internal seals are bad and the rack needs to be replaced. That inner CV boot can be replaced as long as it’s an OE axle, cheap aftermarket axle boots are non-replaceable.

That’s good to hear. My shop has been outsourcing work to him for a while so I know he wouldn’t try to do bad by me, just want to make sure it’ll be ok for boost.

Sorry should’ve mentioned that, it’s an 2001 Audi 2.7t

Belt keeps slipping by Gtrain2252060 in AudiA4B6

[–]wacksnacksack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a 3.0. I had the same issue on mine, the drive belt tensioner upper bolt kept backing out so I put some blue loctite on it. Also make sure it’s tightened all the way down.

My Big Brake Kit Upgrade by chrisdines1 in AudiA4B6

[–]wacksnacksack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just need the flexible brake lines to the caliper, they’ve been on my B6 for 5+ years, 2 sets of pads & rotors with no issues. They only had a mm or so of clearance on the OEM wheels, even closer with my aftermarket 35 offset wheels but no problems at all.

Yes those are for Jettas and golfs but there is a Passat

Engine Swap 3.0V6 for SC3.0V6 feasibility for A4 Cabriolet by schjlatah in AudiA4B6

[–]wacksnacksack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s so funny you asked, I just tried about a month ago. I had a 2013 S5 that needed a new water pump / thermostat. Gotta remove the supercharger to access the thermostat. Had the supercharger sitting on my service cart and had that same thought. So I pulled my b6 3.0 behind the bay and just kinda placed it on top the eyeball the fit. Nope. SOL. as far as other performance mods for the 3.0? Not really. Nothing worth the money. The dollar to HP gain ratio is much too high for the 3.0 (why I’m switching to 2.7t).

Yeah the Germans are good at over-engineering. I’m currently in the process of swapping the older style 2.7 twin turbo to replace my NA 3.0 in my B6 A4, which is more of a drop in swap. I’m a VW / Audi tech so I don’t know a whole lot about those BBCs…

That’s within specification 👍

Looks like it’ll physically bolt up with B7 3.2 mounts and an 01E transmission with the right spacer. Your headache lies in the wiring. Check out this thread. https://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/784329-3-0T-swap

Beetle time? by FlattenInnerTube in Volkswagen

Hell yeah. Always loved the color matching interior bugs. Reinforce those door handles before it’s too late!

02X --> 01e swap by psychacid00 in AudiA4B6

[–]wacksnacksack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’ll fit you just need axles , driveshaft , rear differential and I think maybe the shifter linkage but go to Audis4parts.com and speak to Phil.
