[s-cars] Differential lock leak?! - Or seal?!

[Ivan Demkovitch]

Mike,

You ARE ETKA ninja :)
For all the time I have S4 and how much work I did - I still have problems finding needed page

p/n 017 525 075 A is looks like what's needed.

For now I took it out, degreased and put back with some fancy automotive silicone. Don't think it will work but worth trying.

Now I will ask question about seal. When I took flange off - seal was dry and look like new. So, I concluded it's good. 
Now, after I got everything back together I'm thinking if it's possible that GL will leak through seal onto flange and out without staining seal?

Thanks,
Ivan

I don't have a diff-lock, so I can't be certain...

Believe what you're looking for is in A10Q/MG5/SG25.  I'm looking at 
525-20.  I see a boot, hose clamp, and a selector fork.  Since it's the 
rear diff, I have no idea what else a selector fork would be doing back 
there.  The boot is p/n 017 525 075 A, but I strongly recommend you 
verify this in your ETKA.

And if it seems to anyone else like I'm the ETKA ninja lately, it's just 
because I read it like a cheap romance novel.  Mmmm, headlight plug for 
urS6 is 8D p/n.  Mmmm, that's because the A4 came out in 95 in Europe 
and the urS4 prolly has a different one.  Mmmm, that's hot.

-Cheers!
Mike
