You know me, the guy who did his power steering pump four times in two weeks.
Well, buy the OEM o-ring kit for $29 and make sure you clean the o-ring fits and
grease them. You won't have problems.

When I bought the kit from Clair in Boston, MA, I also bought my fourth quart of
oil.

The first one from the local VW dealer was Audi oil - $22/qt
The secondand third  one from the local Audi dealer was the green/white
container - $17

The last one from Clair Audi - *7.95/qt* yes, 7.95/qt. Said the list was 17.95
or something like that.

Don't know if I got a good deal or not, he had just told me that he had a spare
pump in stock and I ordered it, but then called back and said he didn't. Might
of given me the oil for cost, but he didn't say so.
