<a non- Audi replacement battery with a vent...
 I work part time at a Nationwise Auto parts store.  We have the battery for
 the 5000/100/200 series in stock.  I don't know where you are from, but if
 you can get to a Nationwise, try it.  I sold one to a customer last week
 (84 5000S)  and the vent hose fit right on.  I have had good luck with the
 batteries,(which I beleive are a BCI group 41?) They are manufactured by
 East Penn Battery and seem to last.  I have had mine in my 87 4000S, and it
 hasn't let me down in almost 3 years, even through the -30 deg. weather we
 had here in Ohio last winter.  They run about $54.95/.
