RS2 America

Nice idea with the grinder disc, i spent ages carefully wiping them to keep them paint free, grinder is so obvious now you say it.

they'll rust out again pretty quick in our climate though. I'd only clean up the ones for the oil pressure switch and sender and the knock sensors.

I spent a few moments out in the garage yesterday evening. Decided to dig out a few brackets from my engine parts box (seen below) and bolt them up. I don't want to go too far since I still have to refinish the other side of the block.

Hmmm...what is the correct position of the RS2 oil pressure gauge sender and oil pressure switch? Might be different than AAN. ??

[saltinot]

They are reversed on the ADU and ABY than they are found on the AAN.

That is what I am saying too but your photo seems to show them in the AAN position not the ADU/ABY position.

Lol, they are just filling the void to keep out the dirt. I'm just getting started here Mr. Dave. .

Aren't you going to point out that I have the wrong sensor color too? Ha!

Speaking of......I forgot to mention that I replaced the little valve that hoods oil pressure down in that hole you posted above. Easy stuff accomplished with the use of.a.small triple square. $30 from the dealer here....OUCH!

You mean this check valve (below) as discussed in the AAN Oil Pressure Sender, Switches and Check Valves post? ( http://forums.quattroworld.com/s4s6/msgs/96161.phtml ). That came up as issue here recently (in a different thread).

If the one discussed is the same one in your picture, then yes that is it.

Quattroworld, I don't frequent there. It's the S2forum for me!

Thanks. I try to help. I knew Tom wouldn't make a mistake. I just wanted him to confirm that the location of the oil pressure sender and switch were reversed for the ABY and ADU when compared to the AAN.

Will do! Thanks!

Rohr Rossa!

It looks nice even though they used hex head bolts on the oil pan, aux coolant pump bracket, and water manifold.
