Rebuilding my 2010 3.0 tdi avant

[Nathan Hiley]

Thought I’d share this info if you didn’t already no Audi sell a led number plate retro fit kit .
This kit is just for B8-B8.5A4,S4,RS4. A5,S5,RS5. And Q5.
The kit comes with 2 years guarantee and the leds won’t start flickering on and off like the £10 eBay ones

Genuine Audi led number plate lights are spot on not to bright or not to dim

Well since 29th of June I’ve just about done 3000 miles since being back on the road after rebuilding . The car has been faultless so i think it’s now time I can put my big brakes on then it’s ready to get some more power [mention]bobby singh [/mention]

Hi mate,

Did you bought the 2015 Competition Plus bumper from Audi or where did you found it cause I’m struggling to find one as I crushed my car and I had the same one

Sorry for late reply to do the conversion you will need a competition plus bumper new from Audi retail price is £472 plus vat or you can get a good condition used for £200-300 but the bumper will come bare .

Facelift s line fog lights fit the bumper but not the fog light grills . The main centre grill is the same as any sline facelift a4 or s4 .

Here are the part numbers for rest of the parts needed

8K0 807 647 B - grille £69.34 plus vat (retail price)

8K0 807 513 A Y9B - spoiler in gloss black £99.01 plus vat (retail price)


8K0 807 083 A - wheel housing left adapter £3.06 plus vat (retail price )

8K0 807 084 A - wheel housing right adapter £3.06 plus vat (retail price )

8K0 807 681 Q 01C - left fog light grill £108.71 plus vat (retail price )


8K0 807 245 - left cover £9.55 plus vat (retail price)


8K0 807 682 T 01C- right fog light grill £108.71 plus vat (retail price)

Do you have the part number for the actual bumper? I do like the subtle difference with the standard S Line bumper!

Thanks,

Thanks. Just front end a side by side comparison with the standard S line and it's an interesting design difference. Not sure i could justify the cost as my front end if fine as it stands.

The car looks great BTW!

Did some maintenance last week on the a4 .my milltek exhaust was banging on the centre brace over bumps in the road due to worn out centre exhaust mount . So replaced centre and back box mounts with new genuine audi mounts , gave the car a full service . Then sorted out a small oil leak coming from two injector top caps on drivers bank so replaced all 6 top caps and bolts with new injector washers,middle orings and leak off orings , injector clamps and nuts for all 6 with genuine Audi parts . now the car is with Bobby for some more power . Also what an amazing car he has

Looking great, what sort of power are you expecting?

Thanks Simon I’m having a hybrid turbo fitted , bigger fuel pump etc and from the cars Bobby has done with the same bits they have made minimum 420bhp and 800 plus nm

Wow huge torque! For reference that is about 200nm more than I get out of my GTR...

Really Jesus and funny you mention a gtr as people say the 3.0 tdi sounds similar to a gtr once fitted with a down pipe and exhaust or back box delete and main reason I bought a 2010 on a 59 plate was 6 speed zf tiptronic so no clutches to worry about with the big amount of torque

The GTR runs 620bhp and just over 600nm iirc, in some respects I wish I had gone for the auto S4, I think I have already smoked my new “uprated” clutch with just 400bhp and 365 ft lb or torque, but you live and learn I guess.
