We have RS4 style grilles for your B8 A4/S4. You Audi lovers will quickly appreciate the rarity of this option, especially if you've already tried to source them elsewhere, only to find that after spending a small fortune, they did not fit! Ours fit like a glove. We went so far as to pull grilles straight from inventory and documented the installation procedure in a photo tutorial to prove the point. Pick from two styles: black-on-black or black with chrome accent trim. Either way, the fit, quality, and amazing price will clear these off our shelves fast, so don't wait.

Pull the trigger. You ought to order these oxygen sensors, even if your car passed its last emissions test. Oxygen sensors deteriorate over time and commonly reduce engine efficiency long before they start storing trouble codes and turning on the dashboard check engine light. Gradual contamination slows their range and response, adversely affecting both performance and fuel economy.

Your B6A4 has served you well and faithfully, year in, year out. Why not deck it out in a set of Euro-look headlights from Valeo and see it in a new light. These jewel-like Euro-style assemblies will fit your stock front end without cutting and drilling, and their electrical connectors accept your stock harness plugs without a fuss. You won't even have to buy bulbs if you don't want to. Just swap your old halogen bulbs over for a clean, amber-free, projector style look that's sure to add fresh excitement to an old relationship.

Continual heat cycling and system debris will crack and eventually stain the expansion tank, also referred to as the coolant recovery bottle. Aging coolant tanks can cause several problems, including coolant loss, a leaking pressure cap that lowers system pressure, and a failed low-coolant level sensor. Now you can address all of these issues at once--or head them off before they become bigger problems--with a new coolant expansion tank kit. All come ready to install, with integral fluid sensor and new pressure cap. Go stock or upgrade to the R8 kit with brushed metal cap trim.

The wiper transmission transfers the movement of the wiper motor to the wiper arms, through use of the linkage, to clear your windshield on a rainy day. If the transmission is damaged, the motor will continue to spin without moving the transmission and the wiper arms will not move. This transmission does not include the linkage arms or motor. Avoid the noise and have your windshield wiper system ready and operating properly when you need it most. Make sure to check out the our wide assortment of new wiper blades for your Audi as well.

Trying to assemble a complete LED lighting kit for your interior, one bulb at a time, can be a frustrating experience. Bulbs sourced from different manufacturers commonly vary in brightness, and commonly have different color values. Some won't fit the bulb holders when you get them; others trigger false bulb-out alerts on the dash. That's why interior lighting kits from Ziza are custom assembled for your make and model, then tested repeatedly with hand-picked LED arrays to assure uniform appearance. Each kit has its detailed photo tutorial to make light work of your installation.

Tired of garage floor stains and adding oil at every fill up? Chronic engine oil leaks may be a sign that your B5 A4 V6 30v has a serious problem with its crankcase ventilation system. Positive Crankcase Ventilation systems send cylinder blowby gas back to the intake for burning. When they don't, crankcase pressure builds, pushing engine oil past seals and gaskets. Botton line? ECS has PCV Service Kits that cure the cause and fix the damage. Available in three stages, pick the one that matches your car's symptoms, and start keeping your oil inside the engine, where it belongs.

Don't let your differential come to a bad end; periodic fluid changes can keep it running smooth and silent for years to come. Choose from premium Motul Gear 300 or Red Line 75W90 High Performance gear oil. Install the new side seals in the kit to keep your fresh oil inside the diff. Then add an extra measure of protection with ECS Tuning magnetic drain plugs, designed to attract and hold ferrous debris before it can abrade close-tolerance gears. Compared to the staggering costs of differential repair or replacement, this simple service procedure is a small investment.

You won't believe the difference an LED lighting package makes in your car until you see it with your own eyes. LED illumination is a far brighter and friendlier light, crisp and clean, especially when compared to the dingy yellow glow from conventional filament style bulbs. Now you can do a complete LED conversion using our Audi C6 A6 LED Interior Lighting Kit. It contains all the LEDs needed for a total lighting upgrade. No need for guesswork or complicated ordering of individual bulbs.

Our aluminum wheel hanger makes it easy to remove and install wheels.

The knurled, non-slip handle has a drilled hole so you can hang it on a pegboard hook in your garage. Better still, order two: one for your garage and another for the emergency tool kit in your trunk.

Schwaben Go-Through Screwdrivers might at a glance appear to be functionally identical to those contained in other sets - upon further inspection, it becomes obvious that these tools are built to an exceedingly high build standard, and are uniquely designed for extreme durability. The Go-Through design means the metal driver shaft extends in through the handle of the tool, instead of dead-ending at the grip. This gives the driver a better weight, feel, and increases the effectiveness and durability of the tool.

Most aftermarket boost gauges look like add-ons. The dial numbers and lighting don't match the factory gauges. Many use an afterthought mounting system that looks out of place. We think your boost gauge should be easy to see, and blend with your interior. That's why we've developed an all new boost gauge kit. Our exact-fit pod installs in the center vent. The gauge design and lighting blend with other dash gauges to give it a classy, factory-installed look. We've even prepared a detailed photo tutorial outlining the installation, so the fun can start as soon as you open the box.
