Coupe B2 Service Parts
Hi, I'm after buying a load of service parts to bring our B2 coupe back to good health. I've just perused Euro car parts and some of the stuff they offer I'm not sure of. As a general rule I like to stick to known brands for things like spark plugs, coils etc. So Bosch, Champion, Lucas. I'm after some advice from owners of what and where is best to buy from. Below is a list of items we need, so any input is appreciated.
1) 5 x Spark Plugs ( I've found Bosch to be best) 2) Set of HT Leads 3) Distributor Cap 4) Rotor Arm 5) Ignition Coil 6) Air Filter 7) Oil Filter 8) Belts Another item I'm in desperate need of is a thermostat housing. If anyone knows where I can source a new or good replacement I'd love to hear it. Thanks In Advance S. |

Now that's a comprehensive answer.
A good demo of what this forum can do. Nice one Colin :tup: Have a good Xmas. |
I changed my thermostat housing about a year ago - Quattro Corner had one brand new.
Good luck:tup: |

Belts are item 8 on my list, but I won't be doing that particular job. The water pump needs replacing and I'll be giving that job to a mechanic we know who is VAG experienced. I'll have him do the belts at the same time. Thanks for your help and reply, it is really appreciated. :tup: |
Worth looking at Amazon for branded parts... I've had some good prices.:nod:

The thermostat housing I would call the straight short one, I will have a look during the holidays for a better housing and coil.

I really need the rotor arm and dizzy cap as the one on it is worn out looking at it. I'm surprised at how little support there is for parts for these Audi's considering their cult status. I can go on a few different sites and get all the parts for my Triumph in minutes, but finding a part number for a set of HT Leads is a task for a B2 Coupe. :hmmm: |
Think your self lucky you haven't got a coupe quattro, the quattro drive system made Audi's name as a brand name, they just dumped the old car and don't care about the spares service because there is not any profit in the old cars.
