In the US, not all the businesses that carry Parker Hanifin hose fittings
carry anything like the Audi fittings. P-H makes a lot of SAE hydraulic
and gas connectors used in industrial and agricultural equipment and those
of us who live in the rural parts of the US will find P-H dealers with no
knowledge OR interest in metric or oddball Audi applications. If you can
get them to look up appropriate fittings, they'll tell you they don't have
the proper tools for attaching them to hoses or the price will be way
beyond what you can get OEM hoses for.
