[s-cars] Where can I find part numbers?

[Tom Green]

I agree with you Tom.  The dealer online catalogs are so bad that you  
really need part #s for successful ordering there.  You can always  
email San Diego Audi <www.genuineaudiparts.com> or phone Rector Audi.

Unlike many other manufacturers, Audi still protects the parts ETKA as  
intellectual property and does not distribute it.  There are some  
unauthorized downloads on the web from time to time.  They usually are  
old soviet bloc based outfits that require bit torrent because of the  
file sizes.

In the meantime, you can use <www.vagcat.com> for fairly good  
coverage. You will need to register but that is simple and non- 
intrusive.  There is a large amount of info in the FAQ on the UrS4/ 
UrS6/S2/RS2 forum on quattroworld.com.  It is the most active forum  
for these vehicles.
