... and get another weathered bushing, ready to fail again?  The replacement
bushing is readily available from Audi for no more than a couple bucks ...
I'm sorry that I don't have the P/N handy.  Anyone who has TFA can look up
the bushing number by looking under the V8 Quattro.  While the link rod is a
different length on the V8, it does call out the bushing separately, and the
V8 part is identical to the one used in all of the 5 cylinder cars I've
seen.  I think that the part number shows up in the A4 separately as well.
I'm pretty sure the P/N was posted in the archives as well.  

HTH!
