Yes, it will. That is what I have and once I got it adjusted properly works fine. I think I might "tweak" it later.

Question

Okay, I installed the ebay SS and I keep trying to adjust it to get nice smooth shifts... When I think I get it, the next morning when the tranny is cold it's difficult to shift to second but is fine when warm. Any ideas? Am I too far back, or forward, left or right?

Default Now that it's cold...

Apparently a few gaskets have decided it would be a good time to fail. I seem to hemorrhaging from the oil cooler. I also am afraid that the turbo gaskets are going. I see signs of oil coming from between the exhaust manifold and the turbo.

I am finding it a little difficult to "love my Audi" at the moment.

In the last few weeks I have replaced the coolant flange, thermostat, water pump, headgasket, VC gasket. And now It popped the same code that it had before the headgasket change. I also am having trouble resealing the coolant flange. I am afraid that it wasn't the headgasket after all and in fact the block is cracked.
