The NHTSA Recall Campaign number is 00V068000. Audi called it "KY" (somebody has a
perverted sense of humor). It is involve, and I quote:
"...underhood fuel line leakage in 1992-1995 Audi 100, S4, and S6 vehicles equipped with 2.2L I-5
DOHC turbo (S4 and S6) or 2.8L V-6 SOHC normally aspirated (100 and A6) engines. Several
owners allege incidents of fuel spraying or dripping from a compression fitting in the fuel supply tube
asssembly between the fuel filter and the fuel rail assembly. The fitting reportedly joins a steel
braided section of rubber hose to a metal fuel tube. Some of the owners allege that the replacement
fuel tube assembly design was modified in the replacement part."
It did NOT involve the fuel lines to or from the injector fuel rail - but it probably should have.
