Titanium Grey S4 Avant

Worth noting that is a log manifold with no collector, not an RS2 or wagner replica.

ahh. Are the options that won't make you take a loan out?

[hunker7]

So I filled the tank, did 122 miles ( 80miles b-roads 40 miles around town) and averaged about 18 mpg (not driving like a granny ). Does this sound about right?

[diesel des]

Yep

[hunker7]

Yep

I think it's time to really consider that LPG conversion

RS2 and wagner copies come up for about £150 which I would say is better than a log for the money if you don't want to buy a wagner, just be prepared to clean up the casting as DES says, if you get a duff one all the bolt holes can be miles out!

Sounds about right, my S2 was 19-22 average, up to 30 on a very sensible long drive.

Any place that sells them, or do they just come up on ebay every now and then? I got about 32 mpg (tank method) on 320 mile round trip which is totally fine by me. Also, driving around town most trips are not long enough for engine to heat up before you turn it off.

Picked some bits up

Don't you need 2 sump gaskets? one for each side of the metal bit, I did on mine

Looking at ETKA I do indeed Thanks for pointing that out (first time I hear about it)

Yes you do. All AANs, 3Bs, ABYs and ADUs are supposed to have the windage tray. One item 14 gasket on either side of the Item 14A "restrictor" (windage tray):

I was going through my parts box, and came across Denso (PN 234000-5530) lambda sensor which was on my A100 and maybe did about 6-8k miles before I scrapped the car. Can I put this in my AAN?

You could try it but the PNs between the two are different. Might just be a lead length but it could be something else.

V6 = 077906265F

UrS4 (LHD and RHD) = 034906265F

RHD UrS6 = 034906265F

LHD UrS6 = 077906265 (that's a new one for me, didn't know that).

I checked Denso online catalogue and it says it's universal fit, which I assume is because it came without plugs (even though it's a straight plug&play from A100 to UrS4)

What do you guys think, is it worth changing engine mounts @195k miles?
