Audi RS2 -94 Swe

You were lucky then. My problem was at the other end so I had to read up on how to open it and its a bit fiddly. Whilst waiting for my replacement cable I rigged up two loops of string on the release springs and wrapped them around the headlamp washers. Looked hilarious

Has it snapped at the pull end? If its the bonnet end, do you know how to open it?

Jepp, snapped at the pull end. At he Z-shaped thing that connects to the puller handle. Yeah the bonnet is open now, could use a polygripe to pull the wire to open the bonnet.

Looking good.
I had bonnet cable problems as well. I have a spare cable as I ended up buying two. Let me know if you can't find one. I couldn't find a new one but they are identical across the Audi 80 range so if there is a breaker near you that's a good place to start. The LHD pull is different but the cable is the same.

Thanks! Yeah, i Will search the Internet and scrap yards. If I get nothing i will contact you

Today it was time for the first test run! First time the car drove by it self in 6-7years! All went fine until i wanted to pop the hood to look so everything was good. Then my hood opener wire snapped so i decided to drive home. If something happen (fire etc) it would be catastrofic not to could open the hood to get the fire extinguiser inside to put it out. So until next testdrive i will have to fix a new hood opener wire... Some body knows were i can buy i new one? Maybe Audi still sells them? It snapped in the coupe. Otherwise most tings felt good, engine sounded healty and got to taste some boost and maybe 5500rpm. I wanted to make sure that i had no leaks etc before i give it full throttle and beginning to push it moore. But unfortunately the wire snapped and then i called it. Really special to drive, way moore laggy then my URS4 (when it was stock) but sure a special feeling. Will fix th hood opener wire as quick as i can so i can drive some moore before MOT.
Anyway here is some pictures of it out in the Swedish summer sun!

Don't know how i missed this thread, maybe it's because you have the UrS4 thread and i have a look at that one and think i've covered what your doing. 3 x S cars i read including C5 is a little bit much for the wallet don't you think?!

Anyway,..........really enjoyed your thread and the excellent level of detail, love and attention you put into it. Superb work!

Hehe, yeah 3 S/RS cars was to much for my wallet and time. Sold the S6 C5 a few weeks ago, will get a newer A6 quattro diesel of som kind. But that will have to wait a few months. Thr Urs4 and RS2 i still left. Thanks fot the kind words. Trying y best!

That looks like a good buy then. I have a kind forum member sending me a good second hand one. If that doesn't do the trick I will have to raid the piggy bank again.

The sender came from an Audi dealer, see pictures. But the package dosesnt look like Audi. The new and old sensor looks exactly the same. All numbers/pressures match up. Have it mounted on he car and it's working nice.

Where did you get your oil pressure sender from? I can't seem to find a new genuine one. I'm talking about the bigger cotton reel size one.
cheers

Found it on eBay, payed like 100€ with shipping.
